Does anybody remember the student/unemployed gate that they trialed for a season at Springfield Park which must have been some point between 1995 & 1998?? The queue for this turnstile used to snake on to First Avenue at times whilst all the others had tumbleweed blowing through them
Me thinks that idea was abused somewhat!!!!!
Back on to subject the Junior Stripes idea is extremely good value for money but surely the people on the ticket office should push be told to push it more
If we take the story of the original poster at face value would he have been more tempted to fork out £50 (£20 adult, £5 Kid x2, £10 junior stripes x2) if he’d been told that membership would have entitled him to bring his kids to any further games for the same £5 price? I think they might have been & his kids may have been hooked for life.
If people who phone up just get told “1 adult & 2 kids? That’d be £50 mate” its a fair old wedge of money to expect a casual fan to fork out (even if it is extremely good value when compared to other permier league sides) & I can understand people just saying “I’ll leave it then”
My message to the original poster would be to tell his mate about Junior Stripes & the extra value that brings. If he still thinks its too pricey tell him to begger off & stop taking the pish
