When the away fans stand holds 4,800 and only 1350 tickets have been sold an obvious no brainer but i am sure you will see it from the wrong end of that telescope of yours. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,415 Posted February 17, 2023 Wonder if they take cash on the gate too? I was at a dagenham v solihul moors last week, cash admission on the day, standing to watch, proper old school, but very enjoyable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our flexible away capacity works very well, allowing sale to home fans. Wigan have a far bigger ground than they need, so will nearly always take cash. Your comparison is rather crap. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was the same at Coventry this season but if a club's a*se is hanging out of it's trousers getting money in any way you can does make sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a belief that any system that allows football fans to make judgements about whether to travel long distances safely on the day of the game taking into account weather conditions etc. is a good one. Having stadiums with 5 to 10 per cent spare capacity for most games albeit there would be some popular matches at full capacity would therefore be valuable in achieving it. Arguing that it doesn't make good business sense could possibly be offset by the concept of goodwill. Albeit a word not used much these days. Goodwill hasn't always been prevalent in Norwich's recent approach to away support eg. Chelsea last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
