Re: Carling Cup -v- Newcastle!!

I understand the argument on the concessions as others have said that it may just put some people of attending by putting it out of the reach of some families & individuals who otherwise may have attended given it is also being broadcast live.

In fact I have just finished reading a great book regarding the economics of football and one of several reasons a lot of clubs find themselves out of touch with their grass root levels of support is ticketing prices.

In fairness to balance that up our Season Ticket prices are amazing value

I on the other hand also appreciate that these games don't come along all the time and there is a chance to maximise income streams, these if they are used towards funding the squad may just make the difference to us mounting a challenge at the Top End of the Table?

Perhaps it is not to late if advertised maybe that if people keep hold of their stubs from this game that maybe a reduced admission maybe could be offered up for lower profile home game down the line?
