    One of the closest games we will have this season (in time & distance) and they're still on general sale

    I honestly cannot wait until the next time one of our uber fans pisses & moans that they cannot get a ticket for somewhere :eek:

    It's simply down to the pricing for me. I've got a lot going on in the next 4 weeks and chose Harrogate instead of Accrington simply down to the fact that it was £44 for the 4 tickets rather than £70. It's a big difference when both ground have similar views and similar, poor facilities.

    Yes I respect that NM, I know it is an expensive do when you are paying for several of you. Fortunately there is just me & my son to fork out for, even though he is earning his own brass, dad always ends up paying still....o_O

    Anyway lets see how the demand for Salford tickets goes when they are released :laughing: (granted, they'll give us much less than Accrington will)

    I'm not going because of the price, simple as that.

    Done loads of away days this season. Picked barrow and harrogate over this.

    60 quid for me and my kids! Too much for league 2 football

    1,366 or thereabouts seems to be the away allocation at Salford, which includes just over 200 seats, which is roughly 1,000 less than Accrington have sent us.

    lol why do we do it to ourselves! Everyone keeps telling me I’m too soft but I think as long as my kids remain sensible with their money, then I’ll carry on paying for things to help them on their way. Mine are 18 and 20….but I doubt they’ll be getting on the housing ladder anytime soon unfortunately

    anyway we digress

    over 1600 sold as of Tuesday and still 10 days to go until this game. A couple of favourable results will see interest in this match increase, despite the over the top prices.

    Folk going on about the pricing is it simply down to folk just not wanting to go ?????

    Rochdale away last season £24........3,500 ???? easily sold out.

    Crewe £25 longer distance ...........over 2,000 sold out.

    Harrogate and Accrington went on sale within 2 days of each other. There’s only a certain percentage of City fans travel to away matches so I suspect a few are spreading the cost, after an expensive and frustrating day in Barrow, and will buy month end.
    It’ll sell out.

    We always travel well to Rochdale and its a decent stadium. Crewe we were right in the mix and a win could have pushed us to greater things, we blew it on the night. £25 to stand at Acrrington is steep, is it not the same for a seat and the facility's are really basic, we will not be far from a sell out come match day.

    Did anyone actually sit down at Rochdale ???

    Come on face facts if we stood top of the league we would have sold out easily.

    Its more or less the same distance as Dale btw the Crewe was rearranged way before that night and we still sold out.

    We stood top and Accy gave us 4k then trust me money would be no object.

    He doesn’t have remotely enough cash to sustain a EFL club if it hit problems. Like Holthas found to his cost.

    Accy have increased the allocation because they are desperate for cash?

    Of course performance has an affect on ticket sales, that is most clubs, not just us. Our support is bloody damn good , home and away considering some of the shite we have had to endured, especially since Edin's masterclass.
