It was kids for a quid Saturday, which boosted the attendance.

Exactly. I wonder how many adults went to the game and took their kids who otherwise might not have gone but for 'kids for a quid'.

Someone has to invite them (adult or kid), in that the Exiles express is sent to the email of an existing fan. So kids not linked to an existing fan, would need to be invited by one. However the existing adult fan might have been someone who provided their email address when purchasing a Man Utd or Wrexham ticket. So direct marketing in practice.

The actual game was quite open, and would have been OK for a neutral, so not a disaster in terms of possible future ticket purchases.

It makes me wonder just what type of attendance County could get if we were to actually be successful.

That’s my take too upon reflection. I’m proud of what we’ve done this season. It’s sad to see us in the state we’re in right now but 2 more games and we can start to sort this mess out.

Kids should always be for a quid (or free). Fair point though.

Quite. And yet season ticket prices for kids aged between 7 and 11 are doubling next season.

That in my view is a really stupid thing to do.

A number of clubs have family tickets. I think it is something we could and should develop.

I remember a few years back Walsall did an Under 16's season ticket for £48. But if you showed your match ticket at the food/drink outlets you got £2 off. So effectively free (and some possible extra revenue at the food/drink outlets). Win/win...
