The January Sales!

A round-up of the offers we've seen for the opening month of 2015, starting on Friday 2 when MK Dons host Chesterfield in an FA Cup Second Round tie that is being replayed by order of the FA after Chesterfield, who won at Stadium:MK on December 6, admitted fielding an ineligible player.

The game comes on the back of the busy festive period and the Dons have received special permission from the FA to reduce ticket prices below the usual minimum demanded to as low as £6 for adults and £1 for under-18's. Chesterfield meanwhile are laying on free travel for a certain amount of supporters and subsidised coaches thereafter.

The Third Round of the famous old competition begins the following day on Saturday 3 and a number of clubs have reduced adult prices to the £15 mark for their respective home games.

Special mentions to Southampton who have priced the St Mary's clash with Ipswich Town at £10 for adults, £5 concessions and £3 for juniors (the Suffolk side have requested extra tickets and are set to bring up to 5,500 fans to the game), Aston Villa who have adult tickets available from £10 as they host Blackpool and Huddersfield Town where adult prices for the Reading game are £10 for season card holders and £12 for general sale if purchased in advance of matchday.

Preston North End play Walsall in the first leg of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy Northern Area Final on Wednesday 7 and Deepdale should be packed to the rafters after the club announced prices of £5 for ambassadors (ST holders) and £6 for non-ambassadors with under-16's priced at just £1 and £2.

It is 'Shire for a Fiver' day at East Stirlingshire on Saturday 17 for the game against Annan Athletic so adults can attend for £5 and concessions for just £2 as Shire wish their supporters a happy new year and also look to encourage new fans along to Ochilview.

Also in Scotland there are three special offers during the month at Inverness Caledonian Thistle including a ‘Pay What You Like’ fixture against St Johnstone on Wednesday 21.

Bristol City have a special promotion which allows fans who buy tickets for the games against Notts County (Jan 10) and Sheffield United (Feb 14) to receive a free ticket for either the visit of Fleetwood (Jan 31) or Port Vale (Feb 10).

And Sheffield Wednesday season ticket holders can bring a friend to the home fixture with Bolton Wanderers on Saturday 17 for either £10 or £5 concessions.
