Re the concessionary price, I'm in the 60-64 age bracket and prefer to pay each game.
The removal of the concessionary price will not cause any financial hardship for me but there have been times when, if Leigh are likely to be involved in a one sided game (either way) I have only gone because it was only £8/7 (North Stand).
If I have to pay full price then there is a possibility that I will not attend those games.
A smaller increase may tempt me however.
Therefore, the effect of this would mean that the club could probably receive the same amount of money from me as say last season but my attendance would be reduced. There may be other people who would act the same and this of course, would affect the franchise application.
My first game was in 1969 and I've attended on and off since (partly due to living away for some time), mainly going through the whole of the 90's home and away. Stopped altogether in 2002 and restarted last year.
So basically, it is the one sided games that will cause me to have second thoughts about attending if the concession was removed until 65 (although I am aware that these games can occasionally turn out to be anything but).
