Notts County Game

[Canny_mal]

Just wondering what the concensous is on this one? I think the club have scored a massive own goal by setting the price at £15 for adults in advance (£20 nearer the day of the game)

We've already got 2 home games for folks to fork out for this week and it's not just the cost of tickets but it's transport and all the other extras as well.

I haven't missed a home cup tie in years (as well as being a season ticket holder) but I won't be going to the Notts County game. There comes a point when you have to say the proce is too steep and I've reached it

How do other people feel?

the fa set the £15 ticket price

[The Situation]

£15 is the lowest we can charge under FA rules IIRC. Either that or Notts County have a say in the price charged as they get half the gate receipts.

In the scheme of things I dont think £15 is that great an amount for a ticket, if they are forced to charge that maybe they could experiment with incentives such as a free drink or pie for instance

I'm going.

[Guinness Guzzler]

As mentioned, unless the clubs agree a lower fee the FA minimum of £15 has to be charged. The only thing I dont agree with is how they put the price up on the day of the game. I know they dont want queues etc, but whilst for most people it isnt a problem to organise in advance, there will be people who either dont know whether they can make it until late on, or who simply decide on the day "fuck it i might go along". For me, there is no point in making these people face a £5 extra charge, as a lot of them will just not bother going. We should be trying to get as many as possible to go, whether they have bought in advance or not.

I've got my ticket like, and looking forward to it as always- love the FA Cup

dont think i'll bother with this like. Would rather put my money towards villa and blackpool like

[The Hooded Claw]

£15 is the minimum unless both clubs agree to lower it.

Aye I doubt I'll be bothering with this game. Money's a bit tight and I need it for other things. Might change my mind as the game approaches but I find £15 a bit steep - past 3rd round FA Cup games at the SOL have been awful as well, Wigan a few years ago springs to mind
