This of all the fixtures I say it about should have been included in the season tickets this year. 

 

First game, just make it free and get more people down the ground spending on beer and in the club shop. 

 

Seems a daft move having an opening game so poorly attended.

Yeh do not get this, the only reason I can think is they do not want the cost of opening the whole ground so would prefer keeping it to a few thousand contained in one stand.

Whatever the rationale, it's bonkers

Unfortunately if you see the LCFC socials you'll know they have ZERO common sense

Club have priced the friendly and this as a joke imo. I wouldn't pay more than £10 for either as a season ticket holder and probably would have gone to both just to watch some football.

 

Instead I might see what other games I can do nearer to me.

Adult season ticket holders advertised as £15. Under 16s STHs supposedly £5.

When I, as a STH login as myself (or my U16 logs in) I have a choice of £20 or £40.

I am not faffing about with this, just make it easy and cheap and people might attend...

I noticed this, too. Talking to my OH about it and we're minded not to bother. £15 is a bit steep anyway. 

Wonder if they don't want many to go and that's why they've only opened the West Stand. Running costs are lower with only one stand open. Shame though.

When you add select seat & add to basket it should automatically change to correct price, at least mine did.

Pricing for cup games is not just Leicesters decision it has to be agreed with the away club. Same reason they cannot just give them away they would still have to pay the away club.

As a comparison Norwich City's league cup game at home to MK Dons is prices at this for all people - Adults £12, 65+ £5.00, 18 -20 years £5.00, 12 - 17 years £1.00.

FA Cup it’s no longer the case but Carabao Cup is still mutually agreed 

I wasn't aware of that.

 

A win for the club then would be to make a statement saying "we wanted to issue tickets as a reward to our loyal fans free of charge for this fixture but as it's a rule out of our control we will be issuing £15/£20 vouchers to those attending to spend online or in the club shop" 

 

They'd make a better return overall, get more people down first game and it would be something positive.

 

Appreciate I'm living in a dream world, but it's what I'd do lol

Judging by sales so far, this really could be the lowest attended home game on record.. certainly down the KP.

You just wait for the Vertu Trophy against Fulham U21s.

Two stands open thats it quite dissapointing really. The club have at least opened the kop, have at least one end where fans behind the goal. Relocated the away fans into the family stand to boost the atmopshere.

What is the club like with buying tickets on the day? Do they take them off sale a certain amount of time before the game?

 

Working stock take in the morning and it usually runs til about 1 so unless it runs over I may be able to make it haha

Doesn't help they still haven't announced it. Unless you went looking for it you wouldn't know it's on sale yet.
