They aren’t using a third of a seat or there three kids are sitting on that seat. I’m sorry but supply and demand maximisation, therefore all seats should be sold at the same full price… Is that you Mr Heck????? Joking.... However Nick's point is valid, it's all to do with numbers on a spreadsheet, an atmosphere doesn't create a profit, selling corporate packages seems to though. I couldn't make the game on Saturday, not sure if my seat resold, but if it did there was a high chance it went to a GA+.........more income for Heck to achieve his short term objective...

Enough to knock a tenner off every season ticket holders Bayern Munich ticket. Guy is an absolute buffoon. I know. Hopefully the penny will drop with everyone before it's too late.

My 6 year old son has been on the season ticket waiting list since the day we named him and currently a member. He's football mad an wants to go to every game he can. I checked Wolves, the cheapest seat I could find for resale in K4 was £72 for a 6 year old! He didn't go. He asked to go to Man U at home - cheapest ticket in K4 is currently £135 GA+. He wont go. Checked Leicester vs Bournemouth the day before - It's £12 for him. We will probably go. Christ Heck is playing a seriously dangerous game. No, he said attracting the future generation of fans was super duper important to him. He must have some cunning scheme you've just not found yet. Why would he say that otherwise? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh they're definitely not resale seats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, only quoting my first paragraph makes me look a dick. Second paragraph missed off explains I’m only joking. I’m enough of a dick without further people thinking I’m a dick…. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galway Lion Posted 49 minutes ago Share Posted 49 minutes ago Seeing photos of the empty seats on Saturday against local rivals and attendance under 40k is a disgrace to our club. Totally down to this man. Serious questions need to be asked. What would attendances be like if we drop off in form ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
