It’s probably been used half a dozen times. I wonder how many do that or buy one to gain an extra client ref. number for away tickets. Regarding the hotel package, it seems a bit short sighted that in order to sell four or five bed, breakfast and match packages for £150/room they’ll close the lower tier. I think it also saves policing and stewarding costs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes definitely on the CR as online you can buy an adult with a junior i think with the hotel it’s a case of 2/3 clubs only need the lower tier in this league, get 4 bedrooms sold once they’ve ate & drank it’s an easy grand, plus like you say other savings too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody knows what crowd will turn up from one week to the next, Exeter was a prime example of that, as was Bristol Rovers, a very low turnout.

If so that means we have only sold less than 1,000 tickets on general sale if approaching 23k sold We sold 16k home tickets total for Bristol Rovers so reasonable to assume there's less than 15k STs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevieb Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Can't wait. Mrs and kids coming for the annual family day out. It's amazing how the questioning goes from "why are you going so early?" to "what time can we get there?" when she's also in tow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter desperado Posted December 23, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted December 23, 2022 Either same side or a midfield tweak, with either MJ or Dempsey replacing Sheehan. Can’t see the other 10 being replaced. Same side as Exeter for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking about our attendances on the best BWFC forum is absolutely fair game, especially when we are challenging a non-premiership attendance record. I believe there’s nearly 25k sold now, and most of the season ticket holders are sure to turn up for this one. Got to celebrate and talk about that 👏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our support has been magnificent this season, the numbers we are pulling in just speaks volumes on the size of the club and fanbase. And then when you factor in our geography, 25,000+ is ridiculous.
