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.
