Bollox, the great unwashed will find the money for the play offs, trips to Cardiff, and if we draw United in the cup there will be a que down Deepdale Road for tickets.

£2 is less than 10 fags, a pint, or even a bottle in must pubs.

Too expensive is just an excuse for can't be arsed!

I missed my first home game in over three years today, so your point is a load of crap.

Unfortunatley money does not grow on trees, yes I agree the gates have been poor, but slagging of the people who dont attend really isnt going to help!

"Deepdale Duck, Deepdale Duck!" thats another chant Surf and pnefanatic wouldn't join in with. 😛
 
Re: Attendance

I could only go on one of the 2 games we played this week so decided to go on the leeds one. Its alot of money when we play twice a week especially if you have other commitments.

Sorry, you slightly miss my point, or I put it badly. I accept that there are regular supporters who come to as many games as they can afford. Although I still find it hard to accept that the £2 makes any difference to their decision.

But I think that many stay aways use cost as an excuse. I have said before that there are five or six guys that I know who read the back of the Post, watch us on TV, and are happy to talk about North End, but they don't or won't go on. They can all afford it, but some will say it's too expensive. Almost like I do when my kids want name brand trainers.

To people like them the objection is not price, more value for money. Knocking £2 or £5 off a ticket wont work for them. Promotion would though.
 
Re: Attendance

seeing that Luton brought hardly any fans - the crowd of 13000 was quite a decent one considering we have played 2 games at home this week and played Burnley away last week - face facts people choose their matches as most people have bills to pay.
