10 quid to watch rovers at Leicester or not???

[normal rules]

Looks like being the small pub team that we are has opened the way for cheap entry for the visit to the walkers stadium.
Had not planned on going to this but at this price it's hard not to.
I suspect 999 initial allocation will get snapped up.

[Pintolager]

IF it is £10 for adults for the game at Leicester, then surely those that have already bought tickets will be refunded?

I will be going to this match and if it is only going to cost me a tenner, then great news! Can we have clarification on prices please?

[Dagenham Rover]

I'm wondering what \"Local Promotion Only\" actually means,

If it means what I would think it means I could see them being in trouble

Our Millwall fixture was a local promotion only

[German Rover]

who's in the home end?

[CusworthRovers]

Just rang the Foxes TO.

Frosty it took them a lot longer to answer their phones than ours do.

Anyway, they are not offering it to DRFC and have no intention of offering it to us neither. I asked about buying tickets in their end, if I do it as 2 adults and 2 kids (trying the cordial family man approach) and they were very short with me and as good as told me to get off the phone your Northern Oik.

Your need your best Leicester accent on if you fancy their cheap tickets offer, or alternatively are there any LeicesterRovers on here?

[Dagenham Rover]

I presume it can be done then.
They obviously can't see beyond the end of their noses as well then.
 Lets face it its an easy journey just down the motorway, surely it would be in their interest to get more of us down.

The Family ticket wasn't on offer to Millwall but it was \"only\" £15 adults £10 conc, £5 kids.

[MrFrost]

Disgusting. It really is. Lets bombard their ticket office.

[RobTheRover]

Each club are allowed 4 \"local\" promotions a season by the FL in a bid to improve the home support.  As has been said, we did the family ticket for the Wall game, but they never got that offer.

[washyrover]

When we play them lets do the same,make it catA and for us make it a tenner.EASY.

Yes but general prices were reduced as someone else stated,

A Leicester accent isn't that easy to do- although if you say \"oooz\" instead of \"uez\" (Toooz-day not Tuesday) than that's a start.

Melanie Safka's cover of the Stones' \"Ruby Tuesday\" make me think she might have originated in Leicester rather than NYC.

they weren't reduced, it was simply a category 3 game.

[Dagenham Rover]

At the end of the day sorry but I am not going to pay £26 when all the home fans are paying a tenner its a rippoff

[Gartom]

Unfortunately is all legal & above board.....As Rob says, each club can have 4 'local promotions'....just as we did for the Millwall game.
So Leicester can offer a special deal just for home fans only....sad but true.

However we made the game a cat c so prices  came down accordingly.

Legal and above board it may be but its profiteering shows exactly whats wrong with some of these clubs

[RoversDave]

Derby v Rovers looks like being £31 to me, £3 more on the day.

[normal rules]

Surely this issue can be addressed a phone call from jr or maybe gar tom. They would easily double the amount of rovers supporters there if they offered us this deal. As it stands it will be the die hard few who have got plenty of disposable income who go only.
7 of us in links who would go but I am not paying full whack when home supporters are getting in for less than half sorry.
There is the home end of course.........

[normal rules]

I wonder what fixtures if any Leicester are making concessions for, for home as well as away supporters this season.
Someone from rovers needs to tell them that we are more than capable of taking a full allocation to this game if the price is right and getting the full house they are seeking. Perhaps they think they will fill the ground without away supporters.
It's the season of good will and all that. What they will end up with is small pockets of rovers in the home end, and 500 at best paying full price to sit in the corner.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Now you know why certain fans have been staying away from the Keepmoat.

[normal rules]

Please explain??

[DonnyBazR0ver]

The expense of CAT 1 games.

I was looking forward to a Boxing day game at Derby but having looked at their prices, not on your nelly !!

Advance tickets
Adult £31
Conc and youth £18.50
Juvenile £13.50

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

I've not been to Leicester and I want to go to the game, but I'm thinking of not bothering in principle to be honest.

[normal rules]

20 quid at st James park last season, it's only Leicester for gods sake why so expensive. Their best crowd ofnthe season against derby was 6 thou short of a full house so I can't see this being a sell out. They have a real opportunity here to get a lot more away supporters in.

[mushRTID]

I was also looking forward to Derby on boxing, im not paying that. Its getting stupid.

[washyrover]

My first away game of the season now i feel ripped off.If i was not taking my son i would go in the home end as a protest.With their pricing policy i would figure we will have understandably  a poor following ,feeling more ripped off.

[hoolahoop]

Seriously thinking of pulling out of the Foxes game too and as for the Rams game now that is a 'no-no' too. I'm gutted. £31 on Boxing day, doesn't sound like they want us there at all.........season of goodwill my arse.

Animals the lot of them!

This. only im not thinking about it, im just flat out not going.

Truthfully i'm being choosey with my away matches this year anyway as me and the missus are saving for a house/wedding but if the prices were a tenner i'd definitely go.

also, that derby price is a joke, how much was it last year? don't remember it being anywhere close to that.
