Leyther_Matt Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Yoof can still do ticket, bus and a Maccies for less than £20 so we’ll take thousands. No question. I expect the extra fiver will come in handy for the police bill, particularly as we get half of the gate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 We might take 4k at £15, but we wouldn't have taken 6k at £10, we didn't have 6k home fans on v Barnsley. Not sure how many times this needs explaining. Clubs employ people to work out the most they can charge without it adversely affecting the income too much. Wigan don't really want 6k of us at £10 even if it could happen. They'd charge £30, if they thought we'd sell 2k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I implied above the £15 charge sits us they will think at about 4K so bang in the middle of your figures. However it being so early in the season I reckon we will sell out itll prob have a knock on effect to what we take there in the league mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pains me to say it but in terms of attendance, Wigan have done well with their first 2 league games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Pompey crowd looked wierdly low for them....this might explain it, basically S/T holders have to buy tickets for 1st 3 games! https://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/tickets/season-tickets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
