Rovers would be better off selling the south stand tickets cheap for the rest of the season.
Football all about creating memories and emotions.
I think anyone who sits in the stand are more likely to come again if it is full, there is an atmosphere.. bit of a buzz.
Especially as the season is practically dead, we just need to get over 50 points now for me, 60-70 should be the aim.
The club need to think on, get people in the ground for the rest of the seasons, drum up interest for next season.
The players may even be inspired for the rest of the season seeing that the stand is full.

£29 to watch 3rd division football. Our owners need a reality check

Out of principle I'd not pay £29. Bring on the im a part-time supporter brigade.

Our owners need a reality check It’s like £26 for a bloody terrace place wtf ! 🙄😂 Guess it was ok when capacity was severely restricted and we had something to play for. But now , there’s thousands of extra places and the season is all but over . Needs a serious rethink. |

I was in the stand yesterday, have to say if they do insert the toilets into the concourse it’s going to be rather cramped. it doesn’t appear that they could be recessed behind the existing cladding.
Appreciate the planning process was a bit of a nightmare with residents concerns over preserving the overgrowth, but the area behind the south stand nearest the west corner (that on google appears to be home to a trampoline or two) would have been a good place for catering and toilets, similar to the fanzone.

For example, Exeter City charge £20 for a terrace ticket behind the goal, and £27 for a seat at the side of the pitch. Also, we charge 14-17 year old supporters 3/4 of the adult price for some reason. |

If you reduce the costs of tickets in the south stand then it applies to away fans too. An idea is to offer a discount if you buy tickets for the rest of the season.

I was told there would be an announcement by the club on ticket prices about 3 months ago. Nothing was said. 🙄

Yes that's why I said when it's given the all clear by the authorities. There was only a few hundred in there yesterday. Probably well less than the 50% allowed Your first two paragraphs were clearly criticising the club for not attempting to sell more tickets yesterday? Hello Top's I've missed you telling what I meant in my posts. Saves me thinking for myself I suppose 👍 |

I don't see the issue with that, reduce the cost of an away ticket if it means we get more home supporters in. Surely £15-20 for an adult is enough. £10 for a child/concessions. Away terrace for what it is should be £10.. |

Was the 'Shadow' problem sorted? Not been since the South Stand was opened?

Ummm. You do know we could only use 50% of it yesterday? 75% vs Exeter 100% Vs Oxford Yes that's why I said when it's given the all clear by the authorities. There was only a few hundred in there yesterday. Probably well less than the 50% allowed I don't agree with that. I was in the South Stand yesterday and there was more than a few hundred. I reckon there was over 1000 in there. |
