Its only £27 for category A games so be grateful that your club is held in such high regard. Most other people think you are a bunch of c***.

Actually, most people don't give a fuck.

 

[Scumarmy.]

I doubt that very much, especially given that you aren't going to be able to get a train to Swindon.

Given the travel problems and the fact its on the telly, i'd say 500 tops.

True, I had forgotten about that and also the £27 tickets will definitely put a few off as will the game being on TV. Still be more than 500 I reckon, we normally take more than that to Swindon, probably nearer 700.

I know I mocked the dozen or so customers that went to Oldham but I do feel for you guys on Easter Saturday given A the price, B the travel restrictions and and C the game being on telly. I think 700 would be very good considering those factors.

 

[Indian Dan]

700 my hairy arse. Halve it would be nearer

£27 to watch any League 1 team is shocking.

I don't give a toss what others think about us I know im a c*** I'm glad we don't rob away fans of £27 to watch league one! Clubs should charge your fans £27 to come to their stadiums! It's a joke of a price! Robbing swines!

I agree £27 is too much but I can't escape the irony of being called a robbing swine by someone who follows the franchise!

 

[Agombar stool]

And I feel compelled to say that I don't for one moment find the individual franchise customers 'c***', in fact the ones on here seem very pleasant.

Think my ticket for Barnsley is £23 and we're up north. Scandalous.

A ticket for this one game for MK fans is more expensive than this seasons U12 Season Ticket at Ashton Gate..

Well well well.

 

[Ciderup]

I assume that's in the stand and not on the ridiculously crap Stratton bank? It's still more than I paid to watch Dortmund V Sheisse 04 a while ago which is frankly scandalous.
I was chatting to a Leeds fan while working in Brum yesterday and it's £35 a ticket for an away fan at Elland Rd nowadays!

Our U12 Season Tickets are free.

Our U12 Season Tickets are free.

You've got plenty of spare seats, we haven't at the mo.

We're still trying to build a fanbase so making it free for U12's is an excellent idea.

Totally agree SA, it's a wise move from your club. We, on the other hand, do not currently have the capacity to give seats away but may have in the future,
We used to give kids ST's away for £1 a game when bought with an adult ticket but the current £50 isn't bad, especially for possible Championship football.

It's a clever idea, the future of MK Dons are upcoming generations.

Yeah, that is reasonable. I used to have an U18 one which cost about £50. The jump in price when you grow a beard is MASSIVE.

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Wow that's great, really surprised anyone would offer this kind of deal, even with a lot of spare capacity in the stadium

Mines only £16

We used to give free ST's to U8's. Not sure if we still do though.

That sounded very sarcastic.

That must explain the world shortage of plastic, then!

 

[Wilkodon]

It's a great insentive by the club. If kids go Along with a full paying adult you can bring up to 2 under 12s in for free.

My sisters under 18 season ticket it £45ish for 23 games, can't argue with that!

Reading this forum for a while, just never posted.
As a Preston fan it feels rather strange to be posting in a promotion thread with a genuine chance of going up. Last season we was always going to get playoffs, and was always going to lose.

This season what's changed? Probably not much, in my eyes we didn't really add any quality in the summer, and solely thanks to Garner we managed to flirt with the auto spots till about November. I think Grayson has his teams defensively sound, and we ultimately got lucky in the following games after Garner being injured.
January was awful, I questioned Grayson, as did many of the other fans, and quite rightly so.
Fortunately the addition of Johnson in my eyes has changed things, direct, great passer with an eye for a goal. He could turn out to be our best signing since Nugent.

Luckily this league is terrible, so a few wins put together and we are right back in the mix. No matter what they say, Bristol City have the league wrapped up, and it's a two way shoot out between us and Swindon for second.

 

[D B Disco]

Welcome.

Yes, your right, even though we might publicly deny it, I think we're all quietly confident that we've probably done enough now to secure promotion.

Along with most other City fans, hope Preston make it too. (But leave the title to us OK?)

 

[Double J]

The title is yours, I wouldn't worry too much. You've been the most consistent, and best team in the league all season. You thoroughly deserve the position your in.

Not sure why though, I just really don't rate Cotterill. I remember we had an ABC protest when it looked nailed on he was going to be our manager. (Anyone but Cotterill)
Anyway no denying he's put together, and successfully managed the best team in the league this season. Maybe his time with Redknapp did him some good,

Good luck in the Championship, and hopefully see you their.

Another preston fan, they're taking over the forum

TBF a good few of our supporters weren't happy when he was appointed either...........a lot of people eating humble pie right now!

Bristol City have been more consistent but (with the additions we've made, and change in formation) since January, I think we're now the better team.

They deserve the title, though. They've been relentless, all season.

Wasn't meant to! Genuinely surprised to be honest.
