Well if we claim Derby and Forest as "local derbies", Burton is too!

Debt & Forest are not really derbies.

Yeah, kinda agreed. But still, we're going to be desperate for them down here. It's only really Walsall, isn't it?

The tickets need to be cheap.
It should be season ticket holders for a fiver.

That'd be great, but we'd probably run at a loss on the match. Even Blue Square North/South clubs charge around a tenner for games, so it's unlikely.

Even if they charged a tenner it wouldn't be too bad. Quid a kid maybe?

Season tickets free and everyone else under £5. Otherwise I can see less than 4000 at Ricoh. Or just let people in for free as an experiment to prove that all them money excuses for not going are all bollocks

You think that's bad? We play my ex's team, Orient, on the woman's birthday. Bugger doesn't quite do it!

Would love to see a "pay why you want" experiment like that other club (and Radiohead) have tried.

I'd bet the crowd would still be less than a league game, but you're right it would put an end to those that claim it's money that stops them going up.

Rich is right on it!! The Key Master!!!

I missed this thread too!! I am absolutely gutted to miss this. I'll be on my holidays. My family originate from Burton and are all fans. I've been dreaming of this fixture ever since their promotion to the FL!!

Still, might only have to wait until next season for the next tie!!

Northampton dropped their JPT prices to £10 for ST holders and £12 for non.

Leagues gates typically 4.5k, last seasons 1st rnd JPT 1.5k

It's a good move by the club. Most die hard City fans couldn't resist missing a home match, and at a fiver! Who can resist

two tickets for £10. They will not bring many even though they are close as there gates are very poor.

we should get as many in ground as possible, try and put on a show to let doubters see potential.

unbelieavable prices. £10 for this game is shocking. maybe they have to agree with burton the prices like fa cup games but surely it should be a fiver for all adults and maybe all kids free, with the prices set maybe we should have guess the gate. as the prices stand i will go for 3,800
