    Maybe disguise the season tickets in a Man Utd wallet?

    I've said for years thats what the 50/50 drew prize should be instead of cash you'd still sell over 350 every game

    About 85% of Barnsley supporters on any given Saturday down at Oakwell are season ticket holders. Therefore, the law of averages states that about 85% of the people who buy a 50/50 draw ticket are season ticket holders. Why would season ticket holders enter a raffle for a prize that they already own? Sure, they could give away the season ticket to a mate, but who buys a ticket for a prize draw when they don't want the prize and know they would be giving it away? I reckon, if you changed the prize on the 50/50 draw from a cash sum to a season ticket, you'd lose about 85% of your custom. Give or take.

    How much do you normally win with the half time draw? Isn't it £500+?
