How many of the 20,000 plus will come next season

It would be great if the 20,000 plus who made the trip to cardiff attend,this would put more cash/dosh in the kitty surley for Mr Ritchie to spend come on show you support for your team.

BARNSLEY NEEDS YOU(england)

 

With the nature of the teams in the Championship,

I think we can double our average crowd next season.

 

If you have a decent season then there's no reason why not, but there'll be a lot of the people that may not have been to Oakwell much/at all in the past that will have enjoyed the experience over the weekend enough to come back again.

 

RE: With the nature of the teams in the Championship,

do you realise that would mean 18000 each home game?
i think 12000 is more realistic.
good football and success will bring the crowds.

 

I reckon

that with:-</p>

sunderland, leeds &amp; fowls filling the north stand</p>

Burnley, Wolves, Preston, Derby, Hull, Stoke, Leicester, Brum, WBA &amp; possibly Naarich all bringing a very good following</p>

I would not be surprised if our average crowd went up to 16k or more, especially if we can make some decent close season acquisitions and start well.</p>

So in essence, if 1/2 of those at cardiff turn out for home games, the club should be looking financially on an even keel.</p>

Having said that I think its apparant how important maintaining championship status really is..potentially 6000 fans x 22 games x 18 quid is 2.4 million fine english pounds additional income.</p>

 

RE: I reckon

Average 15000

 

remember there is also the new cheap 11 yr olds tickets

 

i'd love to be there every saturday but some of us work weekends!

 

fair dos, will you get there when you can ?

 

seriously considering a s/t again, but do

miss a few gamws through working saturdays and night matches are very difficult to get to as well, oh and theirs the small matter of convincing the wife

 

RE: seriously considering a s/t again, but do

see it's easy for me living 10 mins away. Travelling the distance you do deserves respect

 

If you get to 16 games or so

then a ST is still good value and less bother than getting matchday tickets.

 

its in the middle of winter when

its cold, pissing down and miserable that it gets to you, also the getting home at 8pm, setting off 12 noon, its the whole day taken out

 

yes, it's the guaranteed seat

that is the real appeal

 

RE: yes, it's the guaranteed seat

I live just near Windsor and work shifts. Still managed to get in about 15 games these past few seasons. Will be aiming for about that again this season.

 

I am in the same boat,

I work a lot of weekends , but I am thinking of getting a season ticket again.</p>

I think I went to about 15 games this season , 10 at home and 5 away.</p>

 

Dont forget

The away end will be much fuller for most games

 

Look on the bright side Arnside

Preston and Burnley AGAIN next season. Stoke, Brum, WBA, Leeds, Sunderland... All closer than home games.

 

Do it....

You know it makes sense
