And personally I think all away tickets should be capped at 20 pounds in the championship I agree with the sentiment, would you be happy to pay an extra £2 on top of your normal match day ticket cost to subsidise the away fans? The situation is that we would end up with more support for away teams is that something we want to encourage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seat was as comfortable as my seat in the south stand, the same pasties were available and the beer identical. I was also a lot closer to the action, and although the stand is not that old it felt a little more "old school". Personal choice and all that and that's not to say I don't think the stadium revamp is not superb. There's always a 'worst' place to sit/stand at any venue, whether that be a football ground or concert venue. It doesn't mean the place is bad but it does mean that normally it is cheaper than the rest of the ground/arena. In this case, the Atyeo is a good 20 years older than the other three stands, and has the negative that its behind a goal (which is to some peoples taste, but normally means a reduced ticket. Therefore I think we should split it in half with home and away fans and reduce the tickets to encourage people to use it 4 minutes ago, Pezo said: I agree with the sentiment, would you be happy to pay an extra £2 on top of your normal match day ticket cost to subsidise the away fans? The situation is that we would end up with more support for away teams is that something we want to encourage? Firstly I don't see why we would have to subsidise, the extra income from selling more away tickets, plus the home tickets that would come available would make up for the losses that would happen whenever leeds/villa come to town. Personally, I would rather see large away followings, it increases the atmosphere and means there more chance of reciprocation from other clubs when we visit their grounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The situation is that we would end up with more support for away teams is that something we want to encourage? Age-old debate on here but it would be an emphatic yes from me. More away fans improves the overall atmosphere no end, makes for a better occasion overall, and brings out the best in our own support meaning there is no net advantage for the away team. Plus the club makes more money. I always look forward to a fixture with a sold-our away end more than one with a near-empty Atyeo. Plus I’d far rather we were giving good allocations and getting good ones in return - far better than both teams giving tit-for-tat reduced allocations, which just stops supporters of all clubs watching the football they want to.

By selling to regular people, it also negates/reduces any concerns about trouble, as the club would have the details for everybody sat in that area. (Rather than POTD) Good logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pikeysrobins Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 I'm so peeved. I cannot believe what I just saw. I'm sure these referees are paid to ensure the big names go through no matter!! They don't want little Bristol City and boring Middlesboro in the equation. Let's help out Frank Lampard's Derby County by GIVING them a penalty which was NO WAY a penalty. Watch the penalty now on Sky - watch it - ridiculous!! I'm sure SKY have some involvement in this. Having Frank Lampard in the play-offs will just make the play-offs much more interesting and a larger interest!! Sorry we're still in but City will need everything they've got next week if they are to overcome such generosity towards the 'big' boys with the big names!! Well done to City for getting this far!
