Seems like we're not going to be too popular in league 2 with quite a few grumblings about ticket prices and also the seemingly sarcastic mention of our premiership days. Swindon have already received grumblings in League Two before they have even kicked a ball in anger. Their current pricing policy sees away supporters charged £23 on the day to get into their ground. You can imagine that many a chairman in League Two will be keeping an eye on what Swindon charge before fixing their own pricing policy for next season. It's a lot easier to increase your prices if there is someone down the road charging more. It would appear the arrival of Swindon will coincide with the arrival of £20 entry fees.
It would appear that every mention of Swindon's relegation has to include a reference to the fact that they are the first side to have played in the Premiership then been relegated to the basement division.

Umm, isn't it already released that we will be charging £18 in advance and £20 on the day for the Arkells, and I guess for any League 2 followings large enough they can have the Bank for £15.

It would be nice to be despised in League two as the Chelski of the league.

So they're charging the same prices as last year for AWAY tickets, haha cool. It would help the team also as not many away fans will come to the CG because of the ticket prices which means not much away support for a team coming here. Although it could mean even low attendences as we might need to rely on away tickets being sold as attendences may be low.

They've either been lazy in their fact findng and just used this years prices or they put it together before we announced prices for next season. |

Well all we can do is slate them because our ticket prices will not be £23 and they have got their facts wrong.
We are not allowed to charge more for away fans than we do for a home fan in a similar seat.

Think the scum are the despised team of that league, not because they've loads of money, but because of the arrogance of their fans. Who've ben rattling on for what, 5 seasons now how they'll have the league won by Christmas as they're too big for L2. |

Yep, they've been telling us for ages now they wouldn't be in that division for much longer ... and they were right  |

What about Franchise? If they want the good bits of history from their former life, they have to take the bad bits as well |
