    £20 in or live on Sky...?

    how many people do you expect to pay on the gate Dirk...???

    another PR disaster by the club....could have made it £10 in or BOGOF with Leicester but......

    instead we will be out sung by 5,000 Hull fans...cept the odd rendidition of "hello hello we are the Barnsley Boys"

    As another of the 9000 faithful we all know that any so called "new/Wembley fan" who was thinking about coming down will have seen the adverts on Sky and will now be loacted in Walkabout at 7.45 instead of in the Ponty End!!!
    That £20 ticket money buys a fair few pints!!!

    I think they will bring a decent amount, so I think a gate of around 12,400!!!

    RE: £20 in or live on Sky...?

    I've thought for a long time that the club could engage in a more enlightened pricing policy. However, at some point the (stay away) fans need to show some appreciation to Cryne's wallet and the playing staff and football management for all they've done this season.</p>

    If it were to show appreciation of the ticketing policy with regard to cup games then I'd expect a crowd of about 56.</p>

    Theres also the fact taht its a night match to take into consideration

    Ive always liked night matches but due to change in work commitments have hardly been able to make one this year. It pisses me off but thats just the way it is and it will be the same for a lot of others who have a distance to travel.

    RE: From within the BMBC area

    Dirk sorry to rasie this one again but how does Barnsley FC court me the "floating" fan....

    Its on SKY tonight where I can watch for nowt in the comfort of my living room with 4 pack of Artois....or I can pay £21 to sit in the ground....

    How many offers have we had this season to entice the floating fans....answers on a postcard....

    Hull have sold 10,000 season tickets for next season already...

    Huddersfield are doing £100 season tickets...

    Sheff Utd have reduced the prices for season tickets next season....

    Whilst we are "open to suggestions" through the supporters trust on how to sell more season tickets next season...

    Ameteurish at best....
