If Notts County get into the playoffs, should we give the opposition team less tickets for the Meadow Lane leg?

Mark Beal on Twitter has put the question to Alan Hardy, who replied by saying it would be a "commercially naive and suicidal" decision.

Thoughts?

What a stupid suggestion, asking A.H to lose money, Is he for real.

May I recommend PriceofFootball on Twitter. Chesterfield losing £8k a week last financial year. Notts reported by the chairman losing £1.5m a year. Yeovil just lost 7k in a financial year. Years of misspent budgets at Notts?

Not quite right what Alan says re £70k as we dont keep our receipts, they are pooled and slit across all 4 clubs - to me that makes a difference

FFS what excuse next, we need the money and tbh should be putting any of the potential play off teams to the sword at Meadow Lane irrelevant of support.

I spoke to a couple of the players after Saturday and they said it spurned them on to shut the Cov fans up, so in fact it works for us not against us

No, we need all the money we can get, let them fill the away end, hopefully it will spur the team to shut them up.

To play the devil's advocate, you could view it as a loss leader. If a partisan atmosphere in the Meadow Lane leg helps us win promotion, the extra revenue in League One would more than compensate for any losses.

Still, it's a no-go. We'd never sell the remaining 18,000 tickets, so we'd just end up with a scenario where away fans are buying tickets in the home end, which could cause all sorts of trouble - especially if it's Mansfield. Football is a spectator sport, so let the spectators in.

Oh, and it's "fewer", not "less". :shifty:
