I think doing some Flexi tickets might encourage more people to come along. Frome are doing 12 for the price 10. We could do that or 5 for the price of 4 which would suit a lot of people

Yes, I can’t commit to a season ticket because of work but I would love the option of a flexi prepaid card for 5/10 games.

We used to do this and it was perfect for me.
Think I used to buy 5 games worth.
Then they ruined it and changed the student price to 16-21 (what a farce when I had a 4 year course) and I think they removed it the year after.

Agreed this would be absolutely ideal for me if something like this came in.

Should do a half season ticket , but you would have to tell them maybe a few a days in advance , which game you wanted , for overall numbers and policing.
And use it on any games you wanted .
Seeing that it's electronic

I emailed him before the MK Dons game asking if they could offer reduced tickets for supporters coming with season ticket holders - and they did it ! It had some success Rotherham 6,800 home supporters, MK Dons 7,500 home supporters.

I don't see them coming back to be honest, they were dropped around the same time the early bird discount was discontinued. Obviously the club have an idea of dynamic price systems within our current situation, with bring a mate for a tenner, or quid a kid for the posh match (I think I heard)....

Wasn't Flexi-ticket mentioned in the survey over the summer? Surely that means that it's something that's being considered by the club even if we can't know how seriously the idea is being taken.

They could throw in the coach pick-up that's in the pipeline too and get that cheaper

That would get me back. I can’t be sure what games I can make due to work etc. So being able to secure a bunch of games that I can go to, when I’m free is excellent.

Joking aside it’s a good idea, haven’t we done it before ?

Because a whole ST holder has bought a spot or seat for the whole season, so it doesn't matter if they don't turn up, there will just be one less person in the ground. if a really tasty game was coming up, they'd need to know at least a week in advance if a flexi-ticket holder intended going, so they could sell one less ticket on general sale. The L A are very hot on ground safety, and if we ended up with a couple of extra thousand in for a high profile match, the club would be severely punished.

I think this was in response to the half season ticket idea, not 5-10 game flexi-ticket. Half season ticket holders wouldn't need to specify games as they would have paid for the remainder of the season and therefore already be accounted for.

Good news - Flexi tickets are going to be available in due course. Some changes are needed to the online ticketing process.
