Still think Exeter fans have been given a raw deal and that Rovers are breaking EFL regulations by making them pay more. If this happened to me in an away game I would be fuming. Also, they have already picked this up on their forum. Unless they’re going to reciprocate and offer our fans £10 tickets for the return game then they can bugger off. Not sure it works like that as whatever the home club charges then they have to offer the away fans the same price for similar tickets. It looks like another TG cock up. |

Is that a football league rule? |

Disagree with your comments here. We went to Stoke City once and there fans had had their ticket prices discounted . Whereby our supporters had to pay full wack. |

Rovers fans aren't being given refunds just credits to use in the future? Still think Exeter fans have been given a raw deal and that Rovers are breaking EFL regulations by making them pay more. If this happened to me in an away game I would be fuming. Also, they have already picked this up on their forum. I would imagine Exeter fans might be a bit naffed off paying £26 standing out in the wind & rain, whilst their fellow fans have a seat under cover for a tenner, fairer all round to leave it as it is & like previously mentioned Rovers fans are getting a credit, not a refund. Originally Exeter fans we’re going to be charged £3 less than Rovers fans for a seat , doubt if anyone was moaning about that on their forum. |

Another kick in the ball cocks for terrace season ticket holders who would like to try the new stand.

Don't feel like they're doing this deal in any way as a concession around fairer ticket prices - it's a panic option to get the 75%. If they are serious about fairness the whole ticket pricing needs an overhaul. We have more seats and higher capacity so there is no excuse to keep terrace prices over £20 and seats behind the goal should be below £25.
Look at Bradford City for a club who have experienced little to cheer about on the pitch but maintained consistently high attendances for how it can be done if pricing is right.

Ifollow was undoubtedly dreamed up to increate additional revenue for clubs when allowing away supporters the opportunity to watch their team without the hassle of travelling. It may have developed in to a counter productive idea as it’s abused around the country through illegal streaming. It may have to be rethought as more people see it as a munch cheaper and more comfortable option? Shame, as it will never beat actually being there, if you can afford it.

Not helped by more games being moved to weekday evenings due to "international" cancellations, which in my opinion should not even happen in L1 and L2.
We are not being helped by the number of home games in a very short period.

If we don’t reach the 75% capacity tonight will we have to give Oxford most of the seats on Saturday to make sure we do?
If so, wouldn’t fancy being in Cox’s boots for one half!

To make it equal Exeter fans should be given credit as well. They can use their credit to get programmes and 50/50s. Anyway how many non selected players, coaches, backroom / office staff / unknown lanyard wearers, WAGS, CT staff and youth team do we have? Surely they can be seated in the South Stand for this game together with potential signings agents etc and scouts. That should total another 100 bodies. Were the free tickets to NHS staff ever given out as pledged during covid? |
