Day Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Sorry B4 but 10k simply isn’t realistic. With season tickets, memberships, new kits on the horizon whilst the cost of living is soaring in this country, i suspect the away following will be in it’s hundreds rather than thousands. Could be wrong, but it’s only next weekend and chances are we will be fielding largely a youth team as Rosenior starts to assemble the squad. jagerbob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For myself and Mrs, it would cost £87 on the train from where we live, plus £20 for match tickets we’re over £100 without eating and drinking for a pre season friendly which will be made up of youth team players building match fitness. From Derby, it’s £55 for 2x adults return, again with tickets that’s £75. I don’t consider that to be good value for money and whilst we could drive, it’s almost £100 to fill the tank with petrol now, plus parking fees thrown in. As I said, the cost of living is soaring, food, energy, petrol, some families are struggling right now and a pre season friendly v Bradford will not be high on their priority list right now. I would be amazed if we took anywhere close to that. You need to remember that not everybody is in the same financial position as you when you make statements like “hardly breaking the bank is it”, some people will tonight be considering visiting food banks tomorrow, just to put a meal on the table. jimtastic56 and Hans Datdo-Dishes 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I know Neptune is running a coach for it. Well some people might car share with friends and family split the costs. Like my dad we going to it and I more than happy split the costs with him. Even if buying the food and beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we ended up with about 1,300 at Bradford which is great. But I know a lot of fans could do with a bit of help to buy a season ticket. Perhaps we could consider helping them instead of spending hundreds on “away days”. I know it’s not for everyone. Day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was a decent turnout considering what has gone on not just at the club but across the country. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
