Seen a bit of uproar on twitter about that, but is £17 really that unreasonable? You probably have to pay that to go see Maidenhead these days.

I think it is in context of what we've become used to for FA Cup pricing.

Also a huge missed opportunity to get a half decent crowd in for a game people may not be particularly interested in; can't imagine we'll have more than about 3,500 home fans for this now. Feel we could've got at least 6-7k with £10 pricing (and some attempt at getting people to go).

£17 will kill the attendance for a side badly struggling to find any sort of form. A new manager might spark interest but they’ll be otherwise doomed.

I understand it's only been a couple of days, but so far we appear to have sold 271 tickets.

That's not indicative of a good crowd.

You'd imagine there will be two (relatively) strong periods of sales - in the couple of days after they've gone on sale and (especially) the couple of days before the fixture is to be played.
