So an Arsenal supporter can go and watch St.Albans cheaper than a St.Albans City fan. Something wrong with that logic. Why not make it £10 for all. That would help boost numbers.

Fair few Man United fans in St Albans who haven't even been to Manchester before.
Get behind your local team.

I think I've been to Manchester with you on a number of occasions...
Rather than reward season ticket holders of Premier League and Championship clubs, why not reward non-league fans and let them in for a tenner. How many away fans and floating St.Albans locals has the £15 entrance fee put off this season?
This offer is a total joke the more I think about it.

The difficulty is that these promotions do actually work - but I have suggested the club extends offer to north ferriby and Wrexham supporters who might be here for weekend given Sundays trophy final. There is also discussion for a promotion for Saints fans by end of this season

I find this insulting to St.Albans fans and also to the away supporters of all the teams who have visited to the park this season who have had to pay £15 entrance.I know there is no-one forcing people to go and pay this fee but as a football fan you are a captive audience.
I am all for getting new people to the club and doing whatever can be done to increase revenue and attendances but not like this. It leaves a very sour taste in the mouth that the loyal non-league supporters are being discriminated against for a one-off promotion.
By all means have this promotion and attract premier league and championship season ticket holders to the park on a weekend when there are no games at that level but open the offer to all fans who want to come down for the day.

and if the offer is now open to non-league fans of North Ferriby and Wrexham then why not open it to all? Do they need to be season ticket holders of these two teams or if I just put on a North Wales accent will I get in for a tenner?

Just get yourself a North Ferriby scarf or shirt and you get your discount! |

So, the only people who have to pay full price are St Albans City fans!
One thing that is very curious is that on July 26, 2014, the club's official Twitter feed said this:
St Albans City F.C.
@stalbanscityfc
@watfordfcsays season ticket holders get half price entry at St Albans home matches when #Watfordfc are away from home!
That should mean entry for £7.50, when Watford are away, right?

What a great result, especially after being 2-0 down. Well done Wicksy!  |

Terrific for North Ferriby and it just shows you what a club our size can aspire to.
That's two seasons in a row that teams from this level have reached Wembley.
