What does everyone think of this? I'm all in favour of it- seems a no brainer to me to allow all fans who'd like to, to watch the game, especially when it is sold out and some fans may otherwise attempt to watch from the home end.

By all accounts it was a great day for the Oxford game so hopefully it might happen again...

Excellent idea. Credit to AFT for pursuing this.

Excellent idea but I'll not be happy if it comes off as I will be on my way to Southampton for the marathon on Sunday morning and so won't be able to go...

What is wrong in "taking in" Northampton on your little run ?

Mind you it IS a horrible place !!

Keep the Faith :scarf:

I wonder why the Rochdale game is a beam back option before Northampton. I'd be happy to watch both if I could, can't make Rochdale but would love to see the Northampton game,

Well seeing as the club are presently being berated for charging a tenner to watch the Rochdale game, a game those attending would otherwise be unable to see, this thread confirms an old adage...

...damned if they do, damned if they don't :roll:

I’ve happily paid a tenner (well £11).

Those who are complaining have an option.

OnicknowlePete · Apr 17, 2018

The only point i'd make about the cost is that it was £5 for Oxford beam back without pasty and pint and now it's £10
I would be happy to pay ten if the Northampton game is a beam back, I just wonder why the club don't have a set cost for these for the future and playoffs?? I have no idea what the club has to pay for this so am not prejudging reasons for increase, just bring the games on,

I believe that the Oxford numbers were restricted to 250.

£10 (including a pint and a pasty) seemed more than reasonable so, I assume that they reviewed the cost and realised that the club did not make a lot when you consider the overheads, including staffing and the cost of ‘beamback’.

PAFC is a professional football club, not a charity.
