I agree it is more skilful but i still don't think there is a speed around the PTB which makes the game entertaining with broken field play.

Totally agree, its just ive read on a few threads now where people are complaining saying the price is too high, which it isnt. I agree that peoples circumstances play a big part in whether they can go, but thats the same throughout the year.

the difference throughout the year is that your season tickets paid for, often in installments whereas come playoff footie you dont know on a week to week basis, when, where or who you're playing. Ive just had to stump out 46 quid then for ticks and many cant afford that just on a whim.
Mostly ive seen people call for rewards to season ticket holders by offering discounted tickets, I can see the logic on both sides of the argument but while we've still got empty grounds I would be tempted to

Havent you guys got a discount? We only got a £3 discount, but that makes tickets work out at £14 which is pretty dam good imo. I do think season ticket holders should get some sort of discount in the 1st play off game. Just as a reward for season long loyalty.

Noo, £17.50 it was for the Saints game. Unless ive missed a trick

It's £20 to pay-on-the-day at Boundary Park. Do you get in as a student?

Games arranged at short notice is the main culprit, I think. People's work/family situations often mean a significant minority of fans can't make games at 5 or 6 days notice. If 10% of your 10K fans can't swap shifts, sort out a babysitter, or whatever then your crowd is down vs a normal fixture.
