Weekend in Oxford this Friday. 690 tickets sold as of this morning, so hopefully a few more by the Friday cut off, could make a good atmosphere.

Oxford are by far the best team I've seen this season so a draw would be very acceptable.
We will have to score at least 2 goals to achieve this though as we are struggling to find a defense.

Mattock and Thompson are suspended, Robertson and Jones injured long term.

It's going to be a difficult afternoon.

829 advance tickets sold for Oxford tomorrow and there is pay on the day.
We are already here, I'd forgotten what a fabulous place this is.
Thought it would be too posh to have a spoons but there's two.

897 Milton Keynes fans in the Second City.

Thankfully we weren't the only club they were singing about being homeless, they added Wimbledon to the song.

Decent turnout from Bolton. Shame the original game was postponed because I think they sold their 1,800 allocation.

Our allocation at Lincoln has been increased to 1747.
1100 sold as of lunchtime today according to OS.
£26 Adult, £21 Concessions as opposed to £23 Adult and £13 concessions at NYS and we have just dropped out of the Championship.
I'm going but not happy TBH.

Mainly down to supply and demand. Unfortunately for most of our games, especially at weekends and/or bigger games, we're short of seats for home fans because of the bigger away allocations.

With 6,500 seasons ticket holders, for the bigger games it only leaves a 1,500-2,000 or so other seats and there's a priority window before general sale.

I'm sure we'd love to keep prices a bit lower but we can't look to try and compete in this league on tickets prices of £20 and £10 or something (which will also impact season ticket prices).

I choked on my tea reading that - LNER didn't give you a vast sum of cash? To see it from your perspective, you do have the perfect storm of no Premiership teams for miles around, a limited capacity and high ticket demand, so you can effectively charge what you want. But don't try and justify it, for third tier football, it's a complete rip off.

I'm not justifying it per se because £26 is too much. Football is generally too much. We used to be one of the cheapest tickets around and had been for years and years. I'm trying to explain how, or rather why, we charge £26, not that it's the right thing to do.

Appears to have put the Blackpool fans off for Saturday as they've only sold only 400 tickets and we're opening up the remainder of the Stacey West stand to home fans.
When I started going to football way back when entry prices were set by the league I think not the clubs.
Our matchday prices are around £10 dearer than what my season ticket cost me to buy.

My first match at Burnden cost me £0.75 :)
