People I know at work went on Saturday they came in on Monday morning and came up to me and said wow. That was awesome the game and the atmosphere. I asked if they were going on Saturday and no they aren't because it's £92 for 4 of them and 3 weeks after pay day. Football is now a rip off for what it is. Sad that people want to go but can't because they can't afford it.

Sad that people want to go but can't because they can't afford it.But no doubt they will be happy to go out on the lash in town on Friday night and spend more than twice the price of a ticket for the game on Saturday.
Can the season ticket vouchers be used for the Gillingham game?
I suspect they're not that bothered. Even if it wad £20, they'd probably say it'll cost £80 before pay day!

I was a season ticket holder until this season because of financial constraints, which ment that I could pick and choose the game's that appeal to me most such as Scunny , Sheffield United etc. The fact that 23 pound is way to expensive for me to attend these game's can only mean until the club's realise that the price structure in this country needs to be looked into.The fact is as much as I love to watch and support my team I like many other's won't be able to attend and that a real kick in the face.Having said that look at Sheffield Wednesday 43 pound for Saturday that is a joke RTID

If all games were reduced down to £15, £10 etc I wouldn't consider the club to be well-run!

If you read my post a little more carefully,I think you'll find that I never did.

Some of my mates are the same. £20 or £23 they don't see the Gillingham game as big enough pull. It wasn't an attack on anyone!
It will be enough for some but not others. Now given the Sheff Utd game coming up, they will probably see that as more attractive and when they next pay £23.
