More Survival Offers as Blackpool Send an Army to Wigan!

A recent post here on Affordable Football highlighted a trio of Bank Holiday ticket deals from clubs fighting against relegation from their respective divisions.

Birmingham City, Notts County and Bristol Rovers all put various deals in place for their home games on Monday although it was only Notts who could claim to have benefitted from a partisan home crowd as they gained a crucial victory against Crawley at Meadow Lane.

One offer we missed was Hartlepool's 'Pack the Park' £5 ticket initiative and a bumper crowd was praised for their impact by manager Colin Cooper in a crucial win against Morecambe.


“I think we got around 1,500 more than we have been which is great and if we’ve done something to encourage some of those to come back then it’s all the better."


The battle for survival continues up and down the country and Blackpool are offering up to 3,000 season ticket holders a free ticket for their Lancashire derby at Wigan Athletic on Saturday afternoon. The club's Supporters' Association is also providing free travel to the game.


Wycombe Wanderers are offering a family ticket for £25 as they entertain Bristol Rovers in a crunch game at the foot of League Two while Under-16's can attend for free with a paying adult for Chester City's home game against Salisbury City (kick-off 5:30pm) with the home side knowing a win will secure their Conference status.
