Re: Do the board really want concessionary supporters?

All the costs to the club to provide each seat are exactly the same whoever is sitting in the seat. There is no incentive whatsoever to the club to offer concessionary tickets - yet they still do. Many other venues and experiences offer discounts for seniors and children that are only around 5 or 1...

Two ex-Clarets in final with James Clarke & Alex Whitmore at Solihull. Potentially a third with Cricky Conn-Clarke should Alty win their semi.

Yes I know they are members thanks. However, I didn’t think that they had priority for ticket sales over those with the required number of points when tickets first go on sale.
They can get them before they go on sale to those with 2,000 points.

From right behind the goal it was clear that Muric was key to the win. The save with his legs was tremendous. There were others too. They were terrified to press him, even if he did give it away a couple of times. One of those occasions he gave it away, it was close to it costing us a second goal. ...
