£10 Tickets For Forest Game (And Others)

Post by Jugs » Sun Aug 10, 2014 5:53 pm

I'm bringing this to the attention of everyone: https://www.facebook.com/events/690215611065919/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Basically, this charity group are selling tickets for selected Bolton home games (including the upcoming Forest game) for just £10. The catch is that they have to sell a minimum of 10 before they can sell any. I've purchased 3 for Forest which are, I believe, the first 3 purchased. It sounds to me like a great deal considering the price is otherwise £25.

Cheers

Seems a decent deal.

Anyone on here know what age they would charge you to take a child. My lad is 3 and gets in free at rugby grounds but not sure how it works at the Macron?

I'm not sure about children. But yeah, it seems like a very decent deal.

I spoke to BWFC. You have to pay for any child, even a new born. Ridiculous. My 3 year old won't pay any attention to the game, so not going to fork out £10 for him, so the club don't get my money. Mad.

The £10 would be fine, happy to pay a total of £20 for us both. However, there seems to be little interest in this deal and they need a minimum of 10 people for each game.

They have received 5 offers so far for Saturday. I'm not going to tell you how to spend your money, but if you asked for 2 that would mean only 3 more are needed. This is a new thing so not many people are aware of it at the moment, which is why getting interest for this weekend's game might be tough. But surely something like this would only grow in popularity once word of mouth gets around because it seems crazy to pay £25 when you can get a ticket for a tenner.

I was asking for 2 of those 5. Sadly they have not had enough interest so I won't be going. Poor price policy for toddlers has cost them my £25

toddlers can boo like real grown up people can, so they'll get their moneys worth.

25 pounds is a fecking bargain , imo .

25 is an ok price, but £35 too much for the standard we are currently at. Will stay at home

Unfortunately the £10 thing didn't work out for this game, but I got my ticket today for £26. Surprisingly, I'm looking forward to it. Even if Fat Boy will probably destroy us.

This is an offer for supporters, friends and family of the charity in question. It is not an offer for the general public unfortunately.
