The League Cup

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Crawlionians - any idea roughly how muchish a ticket is expected to be?

According to their website matchday tickets for this season are £22 for adults, though maybe that's just league and it will be different pricing for the cup.

Ta. I'd pay four times that to watch Gregg Wylde, Andy Lonergan and D-Pratz troop disconsolately off.

(NB: I wouldn't.)

I think there may be a bit of London(-commuter-belt) weighting going on there.

But I seem to recall a few years ago - actually it might be a decade - there was some kerfuffle when it was realised that it was cheaper to watch Bayern Munich than a non-league side, and I believe said underworlders were Crawley. Apologies if I've got that wrong.

EDIT very quick spot of research shows that it'll cost you at least £19 to watch Oldham in the same division, so yeah - football's overpriced.

That's a slightly misleading price you've quoted there.

League prices as per link - http://www.crawleytownfc.com/tickets/ticket-prices/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

For this match I would expect a slight premium but nothing too excessive, so maybe (for adults) -

East Stand (you won't be allocated seats in the main stand) - £22

Terrace - £20

It was higher for our home FA Cup match against Bristol City but that was a Saturday and the FA Cup. Depends how much demand the club see there being.

The East Stand although "new" is actually an old open golf stand I believe with a roof. You will have your own bar though, although away supporters are welcome before the match in our club bar. (REDZ - behind South Terrace)

As Steve Leake states, you'll get a warm welcome but with the usual match banter.

[Verbal]

Sorry for that - for some reason my brain didn't compute that that was the most expensive option :S apols. Goes down to 19 and 17 quid for other areas of the stadium.

thanks for the help crawleyfan!

The Bayern fans we spoke to said it was 10e (less than a tenner!!) to watch them in a league game in the lower tier terracing. That was obviously in 2007. But, you know, still.... f*ck me football's overpriced here.

Will have gone up a bit I presume as I paid 10E at Union Berlin (Bundesliga 2) last month to watch Hibs in a friendly, but still a ridiculous difference!

Oddly, Forest vs Wigan is one of the TV games by the way so that's at least one of our chances out of the window of being on telly, not sure how many others get picked.

Practically the whole of London is a dump when you live in gods green and gracious Northern lands..

But then Crawley is in Sussex, not London. Just realised you have already been shown the error of your ways. Apologies, I must read the whole of the thread before posting.

Anywhere south of Birmingham is in London. Fact.

A few stunned faces in Johannesburg...

Tuesday night it is, says club. Prices tba.

PS: While I'm on twitter - the club has also retweeted The League Paper:

The Big Interview sees @OfficialBWFC boss Owen Coyle tell us why his current side is better than the one that was relegated last term. #BWFC

If that match were played, would both sides lose? Arf, etc

[Verbal]

Lovely stuff.

Who's in, then?

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Lovely stuff.

Think so, family logistics permitting. Meet at Victoria, mayhap? Although if train tickets are an ass-whupping I might be tempted to bob round the M25 and meet near t'ground.

[Verbal]

Looks like about 15-20 quid return on train (booking in advance) so nay too bad. Victoria sounds like a shout, practically a stroll from the office for me*

*a pretty long one, but not too bad.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Cheers. Still a bit of an eye-waterer, that, on top of food & in – but I'll have a ponder.

[William the White]

On the basis of ground bagging for an opportunity not that likely to reoccur, this one is actually tempting me...

[Salford Trotter]

Lovely stuff.

Who's in, then?

I'm up for it. I'll be driving from West London around the M25.

[crawleyfan]

You may already be aware, but in case you're not the club have priced this sensibly - and slightly cheaper than for a league game. Hope for a 5000+ crowd now.
(Not bad to watch the top team in L1 )
