Lets be fair, the club have only announced it this morning.

Maybe the club should have pushed the cheap tickets for kids promotion more for today and explained how your meant to take an adult with you, when the adult has to buy a seperate ticket from the Keepmoat!

Norfolk N Chance, I guess the name gives the negative post a bit of relevance. Rovers are a DEVELOPING club, not one that has a massive fan base, and it operates in a town with a higher proportion of people earning less than the average than a lot of others. Give them some time to catch on will you? We have done well to maintain the numbers we have done, I don't think it is a slap in the face for the board, it is just how it is.

LOL, give it a bit of time.

With the likes of Leeds, the two Sheffield teams, Barnsley and even Rotherham having a much more successful time through many peoples' childhoods it's going to take a while for people to catch-on to the Rovers' army.  A new signing announced less than a couple of hours ago isn't going to make much difference.  A successful run of results however, may well swell support.

Quite right Naith, and with the Owls and Blades coming over to us slowly but surely, more adults will be coming too.

Cheap tickets for kids. It's been done before this season and not to great effect.

Be better promoting cheaper tickets for the parents who accompany the kids !!

Bloody hell, how many people do you expect even KNOW this player, let alone think 'I can't miss this match now!'?
