Mr.T, good luck with your efforts.
I think Sarah Sparkie's point about advanced notice is a good one. I don't have kids but know how much planning has to go into things from those parents who make an effort. And how much competition there is for the kiddie pound. But, as suggested by others, kids are the future for Stanley, and I'm sure that getting players visiting primary schools will pay off.
I generally only get to away games but do notice at places like Wycombe, Oxford, and Northampton just how many kids are taken by one or both parents. If tickets for a game two or three weeks ahead can't be offered through schools, could not vouchers be given for any future game for that season, offering free entry for kids to be accompanied by an adult and half price entry for a second adult?
