Didn't we have a deal with Barnsley recently where prices at both games were reduced?
It would be nice if this could be done again, be nice to see bumper crowds for both games.

The club did approach all clubs in our region in an attempt to do this.

Sadly none of the clubs were willing to agree to it.

But they are charging Adults tickets at the same price we do for away fans so they will be paying the same as us.

£23 is good but remember the gateman will be a Barnsley resident, so a few shiny stones and a Ladies hand mirror will probably be enough for you to gain access to the ground!

I usually take a bag of colourful bath salts. Tell them they are priceless jewels. Works everytime.

Unfortunately due to cut backs in the NHS I will not be able to get my inoculations in time so will not be going

£23 seems reasonable enough, plus £5 for juveniles seems an awful lot better than those robdogs at swillsborough... Count me in.

It's absolutely disgusting that a dad and his lad could get into Oakwell for the same price as just one adult ticket for Hillsborough.

Happy with these prices, good stuff.

as a father of two - one of which is rovers mad, it astounds me how prices are more for a 14 yr old than a 11 yr old.

how many under 18's have an income of their own?>

23 quid for adults if great

16 quid for a teenager isn't.

Bradford do a deal for ALL games where juniors get in for free with a full paying adult.

no wonder they are getting bumper crowds.

Not happy  :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

OK a lot of people will say you ungrateful t**t BUT as usual Barnsley concessions for old scrotes like me start at 65 so I will miss savings of £7 as I am a youthful 62

However when the Tykes come here we operate concessions at 60+ so a 62 year old Barnsley fan will get in here for a lot less than the rest of the Barnsley fans will pay and less than I will pay to go there !

In Barnsley they are still slung down t'pit at 14 so they tend to have an income of their own. Probably explains why the prices are structured as they are.
