Our jobseekers tickets are £10 aren't they? Or is the article right in saying they are free?

Nick is at least realistic about what we've been watching this season

I don't think the jobseeker free entry has been advertised very well at all. No one I know who was being laid off was aware of it - apart from the initial splash I heard nothing more of it...

True. It's always been like that - the club run promotions/ticket price initiatives, don't market them properly (if at all), then conclude the promotion itself was at fault. I think part of the problem is that the marketing dept is too focused on commercial sales, maybe we need someone who's focus/experience is on retail, as it's a different kind of marketing.

It wasn't free it was like a fiver a game or something. It was on the official site. You had to provide proof you were unemployed and the tickets weren't available on the day.

Well it's not like they would be struggling to find the time to get them in advance.
