A quick look at the ticket site for Tuesday night's game against Huddersfield shows that there are still over 4,000 tickets available for sale which makes me wonder if there is anyone, other than season ticket holders of course, who has actually bought a ticket for the game?

I doubt that many will venture down from Huddersfield either for a nothing match for them so it's going to be a quiet game!

It just emphasises how the club needs to nurture its season ticket holder base. I'm not sure they realise how hard it is for an ordinary person - a family man maybe - to justify lashing out £40 on a one off ticket for an ordinary sort of game.

I have bought 3 kids tickets only £5 each for under 10s and £10 for my 12 year old.
Admittedly it might put them off football forever, but sill good value?

I've a feeling in my water that we're going to absolutely demolish them 5 or 6 nil. Based on nothing at all, of course, but a feeling nonetheless.

I hope so for the kids' sake!

This might be the first game since opening of the Amex (other than cup games) that I skip.

It is all so apathetic at the moment

Mathematically no, in reality and in practical terms have been for a week or so.

Realistically neither team need the points (I realise that mathematically this isn't correct), it's just seen as one of those drab end of season midweek games that fans will go to but it is next to impossible to lure the more fairweather / neutral fan along.

The pricing is probably correct but perhaps the club could be a bit more inventive with their marketing? £1 tickets for under 23s or £1 tickets for ST holders to purchase for mates?

You're right of course but the principle holds.

I think there were two men and a dog coming from Hudds but the dog isn't allowed in so who knows

Hoping the sun shines.... Coming down early for an afternoon in town and a stroll on the front before the game.
