We're not advocating letting people in for free, or offering discounts to regular fans. The ideas have all been aimed at attracting fans who would not normally attend.
It's no good the club keep repeating 'we can't afford it', the current admission prices to watch league 2 football in what is an economically depressed area, are too high.
Surely it's better getting 100 new fans through the gates paying £10 each than no new fans! As far as I'm aware, 100% of nothing is still exactly- nothing!

I agree that there has been some good positive ideas on this thread and welcome them. Many have been suggested previously and as I say were shot down by those in the clubs hierarchy that we can't afford it. I am delighted that the points you are making are now being given consideration. I am not blind to any of this. The simple argument for letting new fans in is the same as you have made that 100 new fans at a tenner is better than 100 empty seats. I have said that 100%of nothing is nothing several times. I have said many times it is the stay away people we need to attract. actually doing it is another task, reducing prices has not worked much in the past so we need to be a little more creative in our ideas. The wham should be the place to want to be.
