    Not for me, bought my season ticket. Why reward those who didn't.

    A bank holiday fixture usually means a higher attendance generally. Why on earth should the club lower ticket prices - they’re cheap enough as it is.

    Two City fans that refused to go to watch City whilst ER was here went to Rochdale with me.
    They really enjoyed the game, were astounded at the quality.
    They'll both be there against Accrington regardless of ticket price.
    Two more back on board :)

    So you’re philosophy is if there are 10000 empty seats and we sell them all for 50p to raise £5k in revenue that’s fine even if it pisses off fans who’ve committed to the club by buying a season ticket?

    Exactly. We're not a charity. Our recent form is more than enough reason to tempt a few extra walk ups

    What surprises me is that we haven't seen a bargain half season ticket offer to capitalise on our recent good form, fill the stadium and raise money up front to spend in the January transfer window. Seems like a no brainer to me.

    After being ‘one of the 5,000’ who didn’t renew due to Rahic, I would happily buy a half-season ticket now should they become available.

    There’s approximately 10 home games left, why not offer a £100 half-ST for example.

    The club can only do a limited number of cheap deals so why waste one on New Year’s Day game which traditionally have a good turnout

    Do not lecture me on season ticket holding value
    Have been a season ticket holder at VP since we moved to the area in 1989 and always prefer a full noisy stadium no matter how we go about filling it
    Just think of the low cost airlines. All they do is fill their planes and they decide how much or little they are prepared to charge.

    Why don't we sell a half season ticket like a lot of clubs do, there's loads of empty seats around and I can't think of anything else better that would show a great backing for the side and raise some revenue

    I'm with you @Brackenrigg@Brackenrigg, get a few kids in give them a similar show we have seen resently they'll want to come back, I personally don't have a problem with cheap tickets every now and then.

    New Years Day traditionally the biggest gate of the season, should be no need to entice fans. Either come and support the team or don't.

    I’d buy one. First City match was vs Pompey. Been to most home games since & todays game. Annoying having to pay £20 each game so would snap up a half season ticket. On the plus side it’s nice being able to try different seats each game to decide where to get a ST for next season.

    People should pay the going rate. The players and coaching staff deserve the support after recent performances.

    Big win against Accrington and a well earned rest is in order and maybe some new additions?

    I don't think walk up prices should be reduced for Tuesday's match, but a half season ticket would be a good idea. It would get cash into the club upfront which could be useful for the January window.

    But how much difference is there in price to get to Valley parade than to go up to Glasgow

    Well that's your personal choice but everybody knows the going rate if you don't have a season ticket. I can't understand why people want things cheaper when they have had ample opportunity to purchase at the cheaper price.
