BarnsleyFCFan Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 21GBP to sit in a stadium that isn't even finished?! Crikey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickoza Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 There will be an even smaller home turn out if they lose tomorrow. That's a crazy price if you're wanting to attract a crowd for a crucial game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fal_Dosser Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Being a 'home' game, I was intending this to be a must ......... until I realised I'm away the weekend Still at 21 pound a pop, plus whatever for the wee fella, maybe just as well it's going to be missed - may well take in the Midden game now that they done the decent with the prices. Inverness as a midweek fixture - dread to think what kind of crowd we'll get for that MON RA DOSSERS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelmen Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 a home game for me, thank fuck it's my stag do. that is a very silly price. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Bit of a shambles that. Was originally planning on heading through to Falkirk. It's usually a decent wee day, few jars in town, train through, few jars in Behind The Wall, free bus to/from the game, then back to Behind The Wall before the train home! But with so much on in the coming few months, £21 looks set to price me out of this game. What a joke football prices are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 that is a very silly price Lee to pay for what amounts to us as a jumped up friendly match. In the end its Falkirk who are cutting their income stream by charging that entrance fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceske Bairn Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Guys, whilst £21 is a shocking price for any scottish football match, I cant understand the moaning again. The game is dead on your part however Falkirk have a duty to charge your supporters the same as we were charged on our visits to Fir Park this season. £21 is alot of money but it isnt far away from what almost all SPL teams charge. I dont get the renewed moaning. Or have I missed something? For what its worth we were charged £22 on both occasions at FP this season... http://www.falkirkfc.co.uk/index.php?optio...20&Itemid=2 http://www.falkirkfc.co.uk/index.php?optio...36&Itemid=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think your board would do something to get the bodies in. Even St Midden have reduced prices to £10 a pop which most here would prefer to take up rather than £22.

Team's reap what they sow in terms of pricing. However if Falkirk want extra home support to cheer your lads out of the hole that they're in and extra away support to fire that whole thing up then pricing is one way to do it. For most of us £21 is a no-go at this stage in the season due to our non qualification for the top 6 - so you can see why we aing gonna pay the full price. I think that empty seats in any football stadium while someone is staying away who would gladly pay £10-£15 to get in is one of the biggest follies of our time.

Lobey_Dosser Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Wishing to capitalise on the fell good factor gained at Hampden yesterday, i'd be surprised if Falkirk don't reduce prices. Otherwise, I'd rather put £21 on a Falkirk victory! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al B Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 However if Falkirk want extra home support to cheer your lads out of the hole that they're in Bear in mind the reduced capacity though. Almost all of Falkirks home support are season ticket holders, so a drop in prices only really affects the visiting support to any great degree.

Fal_Dosser Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Ceske - if we're seen as moaning, then so be it, but as has been said, the main gripe is with prices in general, and we've moaned at our own club through the season about lowering prices to get punters through the gate. Like it or not, relegation for us should be a non starter, so unless there's an incentive, many just won't pay the asking price for away games now - reduced prices not only benefit us, but the home fans as well with a lrager than normal home crowd behind the team Doubt it will happen though, as I reckon FFC will hope for a spin off in the home gate as a result of yesterday's win - be interesting to see if that transpires. And no doubt about it, we win on Saturday, Falkirk could well be in the mire MON RA DOSSERS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
