JBFC II Posted August 17, 2018 Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 I see it's available on the ticket page, really disappointing to see it isn't free coach travel, would have been a perfect opportunity to get as many there as possible but instead it will be 400 at best...

weepywall Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I'll be very surprised if more than 300 make the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely disagree. This isn't the sort of game you want free travel to because IMO if free it wouldn't add anymore than 50/100 people to the away attendance. This meaning it would only benefit a few. So why not do it for a Swansea away for eg where 1,900 will benefit from it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obviously better used (if done atall) on less attractive away games where fans who might not have attended otherwise are enticed by the free travel offer. Every extra fan who attends (even if 50 - 100) is going to improve the atmosphere and perhaps help us bring 3 points back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club should put it on for games we aren't going to sell out such as Bolton, Wigan, Preston etc, if it does only attract an extra 100 fans, that's still an extra 100 fans, which will make a difference, instead of attracting no extra fans at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoons Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Just have to disagree on this but understand your thoughts. I just feel as it would be done as a one off it should try and benefit as many people as possible rather than a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Why on earth should it be free? Our away support is piss poor North of Birmingham and that's down to the fans not the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
