Yes, a freezing cold night, right on top of Christmas in England's worst professional football stadium featuring one team of nearly-theres against a team of visiting cart-horses who live in caravans playing hoofball for an hour and a half on a pitch designed for donkey derbies set to the backdrop of actively hostile neighbours in an atmosphere better suited to a doctor's waiting room.
You know how to wow a guy, don't you? Put it this way, come the end of the evening, are you sure he'll believe you when you say this is what you really do on a Saturday afternoon at a cost of £21 a pop?
Having said that, what the eggs-and-flour-basted-giddy-fuckedness are you doing with a bloke who doesn't like football? Like, nerr.

I take it all back - the club has barely marketed this offer, certainly outside of Queens Road - and yet it's going to sell out.
Suggests that cheap tickets ARE the way forward

Apparently not everyone though - some daft individuals have claimed that the tickets wouldn't sell at a cheaper price, and that the FA Cup/Paint trophy games are perfect examples of this. Others are season ticket holders who feel 'robbed', as well as those not convinced that we're better off financially by lowering prices.

Yeah, well, as an STH, I ain't bothered. f*** 'em.

Yeah, but you're a tight Yorkshire get.
It's not as though season ticket holders are missing out - if you went to every game and paid the full rate, even with the 'four games at £10', the season ticket holders are still better off.
Wrong forum, I apologise, but I've got a spare South Stand after a rather unreliabe "friend" let me down after saying he wanted a ticket. Can also let you have two together if you have a single you want to exchange. e-mail with offer. Can post it or collect Friday.

I guess being on a Friday means lots of local park footballers who would normally be busy on a Saturday afternoon can come along.
Can't hurt the attendance...

Absolutely spot-on Mr Wanderer. No doubt all the moaning minnies and dismal desmonds who said that lowering league ticket prices wouldn't help attendances 'because no one came to the JPT' will still find something to moan about, or harrumph that we're still losing money so what was the point.Apparently not everyone though - some daft individuals have claimed that the tickets wouldn't sell at a cheaper price, and that the FA Cup/Paint trophy games are perfect examples of this.

Also you and I must admit that whatever marketing 'to outsiders' the club did obviously worked - even if it was just relying on word of mouth.
