If you take the Wrexham match not only did they have tickets for a fiver but also season ticket holders taking a friend for free.

If you are doing the exercise to create a better atmosphere then yes it works to get more in cheaper.

If you did a simple maths thing with the Wrexham game, their average gate is 4471, average the price of normal admission at £10 for cheapness sake then it's £44,710. Even if everyone paid a fiver at Wrexham the other night then the total was only £35,150.

Can Stanley afford a loss leader to get a better atmosphere ? Doubt Eric would do that for more than one match, he couldn't afford to.
Thanks Dave. It must have been an immense lift for the team to have played in-front of over 7000 fans last night. Considering that their ground holds 15000.
