Interestingly my local non-league team, Bishop's Stortford F. C. in the
Conference South, had a big drop in attendance last season after putting the
prices up but this season, instead of the Ken Bates policy of screwing every
penny out of the mugs that are stupid enough to pay they have put prices
DOWN.

- entry is now £9 (down from £10)
- under 12s are now free (down from £2)
- sitting in the stand is now free (down from £1)
- and most importantly for me, a pint of Carlsberg Export in the bar is now
£2.50 (was £2.80 last season).

It's early days but the attendance for the first 2 homes games of this
season is up 50% compared to last season.

Oh, and they also won yesterday, 7 points out of 9 and in 4th position!

So - Blackwell Out!  Hayes In!

Cheers

Graham White
