Wanderers Ways. Neil Thompson 1961-2021

Recommended Posts

I'd be sceptical of doing the final should we be fortunate enough to get there, spent a fortune the last few times and although the Plymouth victory was enjoyable at the end of the day it was a daft cup competition for lower league clubs.

But you always tend to feel different if and when the time comes eh???

There's nothing at all between us, Stockport and Bradford. And it looks a big drop off from teams 6-10 (having said that, we're P6 W1 D4 L1 against those teams). Reading would be my pick based on what we've seen.

It's going to be a weird end to the season, as the last four/five games might literally have nothing on them.

If we do get 2nd leg home advantage we really do need to make it our advantage and that’s south upper only for the away fans. Like the Barnsley play off game would love to see South lower full of wanderers.

Also if it is Stockport we need to give them the same amount of tickets they give us, so we could give them half of the South Lower and we have the rest including the upper tier.

There are rules, is it 2k minimum or 10% of ground whichever is less?

Even if its Stevenage we have to offer them 2k.  Basically any team will have the same allocation that Barnsley had, its nothing to do with how many they give us.  They'll be top tier only.

We'll be entitled to 2k at Huddersfied, Bradford, Reading and about 1k anywhere else.

Fine by me, only 45 mins away.

They're a faff especially with the daft allocations, but I think i prefer having a week between legs rather than our 90s play off campaigns of only about 3 days between them.

Next stop on the train for me 

Bring it on

Would Stevenage sell 2000?

Dunno what their following is like.

Normally no 

Play offs they could do with fans who really are Spurs or Arsenal 

Bit like how Oxford got 35k for the play off final

Play off aren't included in your STs

Just make it tenner for everyone :D

 

£20 seems to be the accepted price for play offs, I'm sure that's what it was for all 4 of our Barnsley games.  

Our home games got bigger crowds than a normal league game so it wouldn't be of any financial benefit to halve ticket prices, and can't add many to the attendance.

And Reading about 40k last time we played them.

Annoying that there's a geographical advantage for southern teams for what's supposed to be a neutral venue.

I know it is a bit of a kick in the bollox for season ticket holders, but why not make the home leg of the play-offs a tenner for season ticket holders to bring another.

Would fill the ground and give the away end the least possible.

And throw away money?! We’d sell 20k at an average of £25, including concessions. Just make it an event, like the last Barnsley playoff match.

Concessions are for unattractive fixtures, like Grimsby in mid-winter.

Next, you’ll be moaning about a lack of investment from the board, after suggesting they throw money away.

Will be for other clubs though!

Against Tranmere. 27000 crowd, i think? 15,000 whites.

Gate receipts are shared between the 4 teams

The question is not about money/investment. It is about limiting the away end in a one of game which may help drag us across the line.

20 quid on a one off game with anyone with a history/membership. It is all about getting that perfect price that we sell out all home tickets.
