Not a bad idea I know Burnley have tried similar things!
I think the downside could be that it may not neccesary increase the attendance you just may find that the people who would normally pay on the gate may turn up with a season ticket holder thus actually reducing income into the club?
So in terms of teams where season ticket holders outnumber people who pay on the gate it probably does have a dramatic effect?
I think the concept would probably work better for perhaps a Cup game and rolling out reduced admission to everyone?
