L1onheartNew Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 1 minute ago, oafc1955 said: I’m pretty sure the vast majority who’ve bought a ticket will attend. I am certain that they will. Fudging the attendances is the general rule of thumb and "the norm", we all agree on that. Is it any wonder why supporters' trust in ownership throughout the leagues is still in decline?

Only Blue Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 4 hours ago, disjointed said: Quite a lot of people buy season tickets with no intention of going to the majority of games, to some it's the least they can do to back the owners, after the money they have invested. Yes and I am one of them. My choice was to buy a season ticket but if it takes initiatives like this one to get more people in then I am fully behind it. I hope they do more. Simply was just being mischievous. No-one would seriously moan about this would they? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was deffo a thing back in the day I'm not bothered about wanting money back. I just can't be arsed with the ground being full of City and United fans... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes money for the club or the charity i dont care. So much so, I'm bringing 2 Liverpool fans, an Everton fan, City fan, Inter Milan fan and an eggball fan to enjoy a packed BP witnessing the hoof-fest and a 1-0 loss Edited February 9 by LaticsEddie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worcester Owl Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 23 hours ago, Only Blue said: A call to arms of all regular attendees at BP!!! If you know someone who has bought a £1 ticket ask them if they are definitely going. If they are doubtful or say not going then persuade them to commit to go or sell on/give their ticket to someone who wants to go. Job done. I personally don't think it will be an issue. There are lots of reasons for going and for the non-Latics/floating supporter the prospect of being at a packed ground listening and joining in with the Athleticos all for just a £1 is too good to miss Oh and there will be a football match going on as well. You were doing so well until that final sentence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Looking at the stadium plan we appear to be over 9k with 2 weeks to go. I reckon there will only be the CRE left soon. Let’s hope we put on a good performance for the neutrals, it might just persuade one or two to come back! Having said that ‘this is Latics’!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 So we must have sold nearly a 1000 season tickets post the early bird offer…. Yeah, looking at the stadium planner we’re definitely over 9k. Wonder if they’ll have POTD in the Chaddy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody hell they could claim a fortune for the last few years Can you use crayons to access the internet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why have no tickets for the rear sections of the Chaddy, nore the sections at the ends leading onto the North stand and the Main stand paddock, not been put on sale ?

hollandspies Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Counting blue dots Not including the Chaddy, only 141 seats remain available across the remaining 3 sides of the ground. The majority of these (83) are in the JF Family Stand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it says it's partly due to maintenance I'm not sure it's too disappointing. We've seen what happens to the ground when maintenance is neglected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For very different reasons, we wouldn't need them anyway so I'm struggling to see why anyone would be upset. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
