    They can't. Prices are dictated by the FA.

    Will be interesting to see how they go. They'll sell 7000 away tickets, if Coventry get through. Would they be able to heavily discount tickets for home supporters and still charge Coventry full fare?

    The FA will say clubs have to charge a minimum price. Their competition, their brass, their rules.

    Think it has to be £15 adults, but I think BFC can and should do the offer where ST holders can come for £10! I would make this £10 offer open to Lottery people and Supporters trust fans who are non ST holders, get as many folk in as possible! Give them chance to buy the discounted ticket as late as possible, even until 1.30 on the day from the box office!!

    Would have it as kids for under 12s for £1 & all other concessions £5 in advance as well. With on the gate prices after 1.30 on the day as £15 & £10. If done soon (after the replay) people have ages to buy the tickets as well as 2 home games!! At those prices Cov will fill the north if not that + (north) west upper as well! Would be really bad if they had more fans that us, so we really need to get our numbers in!!

    If the club made it cheaper for season ticket holders they would still have to pay the difference into the pot. FA rules I`m afraid.
