Thousands of tickets available, less than 10k on Tuesday night unless there's a huge surge

Club should've included priority points and it would've probably increased sales by 50%

I didn't expect any and have gone regardless but wouldn't have minded points for Stevenage away last week and I think the ones who went to Damstadt should've definitely had some

The price isn't exactly tempting to many tbh

Should have been no more than £10 for adults £5 kids and £1 for U11s or something

It's a glorified training session let's be honest

It isn’t really, for what’s just a kick around.

Tbf it's our first team against PL opposition. Leamington charged £12.50 to watch basicalky our kids. Everyone is rushing to spend £55 on a shirt that cost about a fiver to make. Season tickets didnt go up. It's warm, the kids are off school. £15 really isn't a bad price tbh.

£50 for a family of 4 to watch a pre season friendly on a Tuesday evening. You're living in another world if you think there's any value in that.

Agree with this tbh. If I wanted to go, I’d probably pay standard matchday price.

Fucking hell, they can't win. Years of people bitching that we don't have home friendlies and we only play shit local teams like Leamington and Nuneaton.

So now we've got a home friendly against Premier League opposition and people are complaining.

Cost me £17 yesterday for a ticket to see Deadpool at the Showcase, not sure why there would be any reasonable expectation of this being a tenner.

It's a glorified training session, why are people thinking we should be packing the place out? Anything over 10K is a great turn out.

I will be there and looking forward to it. The pricing and lack of points is a bit of a joke though.

It's their biggest game of the season. I heard there was going to be a couple of thousand of them in the home end.

It's a big fan base, lots of midlands based supporters and it's a ground they've never played at, so not surprising. I'll go, and I went to Stevenage, but do so knowing the game will be a complete non event and atmosphere flat. Can totally understand people giving friendlies a swerve.

Try and get to the cinema, theatre, a concert or basically any other entertainment for less. I'm not suggesting it's cheap or that everyone should afford as we all have budgets and choices to make, but stuff is expensive and no reason this should be less.

Do you really think I’d be training to be a professional wrestler if I had a Mrs, it’s more like a midlife crisis
