We certainly used the wind to our advantage in the second half. I am sure we will get better as the season goes on.

I think these are the early signs of what is going to be a damn good team.

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe the Conference/FA admin people set a minimum entrance fee at the beginning of the season for all clubs at our level. Not sure what that price is but it will be around £15bigmac95 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 13, 2017 12:04 pmI am not arguing the figures - I agree and understand why it is £15, but that is a short term gain.
2000 fans - potentially more shirt sale, programme sales, burger sales (although we would have to start self catering), more exposure for sponsors so potentially more £££. Then you can slowly increase prices year on year whilst hopefully retaining fans.
Maybe a fiver is too little
What about Dads and lads for £9 - 'with enough left over for a can and sweets'.

Really? That is very interesting. What is the purpose of that? I could understand a maximum but why a minimum.memories of 67 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 14, 2017 12:51 pmI'm not 100% certain, but I believe the Conference/FA admin people set a minimum entrance fee at the beginning of the season for all clubs at our level.

I just paid £13 for my full adult Fylde ticket. And Macclesfield offered £13.50 advance tickets lat year. These are the lowest prices I've seen for league fixtures.memories of 67 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 14, 2017 12:51 pmI'm not 100% certain, but I believe the Conference/FA admin people set a minimum entrance fee at the beginning of the season for all clubs at our level.

Cox in the NWEM: "“We’re hoping it’s just tightness,” said Cox. “If it isn’t, we just have to deal with it and someone is going to get an opportunity, but we are hoping it’s just tightness and that we caught it in time"

First things first. Is it his knee or his ankle?

Hamstring John. He didn't go off straight away so here's hoping a slight tweak.

The club are not geared up to extract money from fans anyway - needs to be bars throughout the ground, pre match stuff, decent food, stuff happening for kids and shops and stalls throughout the clubmemories of 67 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 14, 2017 12:51 pmI'm not 100% certain, but I believe the Conference/FA admin people set a minimum entrance fee at the beginning of the season for all clubs at our level.

Went to FC united the other season they are geared up for extracting money - spending money at Barrow AFC requires effort
