We only get our crowds because of cheap tickets for school kids....

Hope she ceremonially burnt it!

Just another piggy myth they like to perpetuate. Makes them feel better about the attendance deficits over the majority of this millennium.

 

[I should coco]

It's not just school kids though. We give away 18,500 tickets every game to Chinese students, becuase Kevin McSue (Ha ha ha) wants more business in China.

Another well known 'fact' on Porktalk.

They've always lived in an attendance fantasy world. As a kid I was told by grown ups they used to get regular 40/50000 crowds. Thx for the internet to blow this bullshit out of the water. In fact in their 152 years history they've hit 30000 averages on 10 occasions with 7 in consecutive seasons 1948/53. This means the massivest club in the history of football didn't get that figure in 142 years of their existence.

They are a mid sized club. So are we.

The main difference is we realise that and act accordingly

 

[DaleHillBlade]

Cheap tickets to kids and students?

That would be something to be proud of.

I couldn't care two hoots about attendance figures. Any club that makes football more affordable and therefore accessible should be applauded.

just how I imagined you

They've got to do something to attract the younger lot. With our recent upturn in form and a feel good factor back at the Lane the kids will no doubt pick us over the porkers. If we get promoted this season they'll be knackered and won't be able to attract any young un' who's wanting to watch a live game.

 

[CarlMcBlade]

Mid-sized clubs is where its at. Every little bit of success tastes that much sweeter.

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Why is it a bad thing to attract the new generation of supporters?

Porktalk's attendance Nazis bemoan the fact we get higher attendances purely on free kids tickets then also say we're doing it correctly and attracting the new generation of fans. Bipolar is rife on Porktalk.

Great for the unclean who can't afford to go to the rust bucket, we have captured the young fans with our ticket policy, I know three little piggies who have become blades through the kids tickets, they never miss a game now hence our support in numbers. Tides turned

I assume you mean these two

 

[Topplayersleave]

Our tickets are not exactly cheap, they're just cheaper than theirs

As for average attendances, if it wasn't for their deluded belief that they are going to piss the league every season their season ticket sales in the summer would be piss poor as well
The deluded happy clapping and handing money over for season tickets in May, June and July boosts their average attendances to..........errr average.

 

[DifferentClass]

Thanks Sheffield Wednesday for helping to promote proper toilet habits amongst kids.

 

[blade too long]

Slight change in the Chansiri pricing model

someone told him no be tight cunty boss

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Sneaky that. Sending kids home with a free ticket knowing that a parent will have to take them and then putting pressure on the parent to shell out £15. It will cause problems in some households. Can you imagine all the screaming and tantrums, throwing things around, and stamping of feet, I'm talking about the parent now protesting "I DON'T WANT TO GO!"

It must be, as half their plastic fan base would be gone.
