Last time I checked, we’d sold around 29,500 tickets, possibly more, so it’s obviously going to be a big crowd. But a family of four in the Family Stand would still be paying roughly £72.
With it being the first game of the season, and against Wrexham, why not try something like: buy a full-price adult ticket and get a child’s ticket for £1?
It looks like a great offer that helps fill the Family Stand and gets more people to spend money on food, drinks and merchandise once they’re inside. It might also encourage families to come back again.
Sometimes taking a little less on the ticket makes commercial sense if you’re earning more from the overall matchday spend.
Just a thought.

As said many times fans have suggested all sorts of deals ,but the powers that be just don't listen they know best.

This makes mo sense? If sold 29k tickets that equates to around 33k home fans take in walk up crowd.. basically full house do why make any offer that reduces income? Other games yes why not but definitely not this one

Organisation was fine for the Chelsea and Lincoln games last season so I'm sure it won't be an issue for the club and local authorities.
I expect they'll shut Sloper Road after the game though.
