The Bandits will look to bounce back from a disappointing home defeat to Redcar in the KO cup and get the league campaign off to a winning start

Don’t forget the Bullets are facing the Kent Royals in the NDL after this match in what is sure to be an exciting tussle
 

All of this for only £1 a heat, you won’t want to miss it

Would imagine a very poor crowd for this one. 

£30 a head poorer. I’ll be honest, if I didn’t have a season pass I’d be thinking twice before attending

£32 if you make a late decision to attend On the day.I fail to see the justification on paying more on the day.That’s the Promotions decision though.

I've previously moaned about having to pay more on the day at Oxford, but have since learned it's to encourage people to book tickets ahead of time so the promotion have an idea of the numbers for catering etc. Guess it kind of makes sense, but still not sure I agree with it. Going to stop complaining about it now, though. :D

I can understand it for indoor events but for outdoor events that are dependent on the weather I don't agree with it. Interesting to see how it has affected numbers.

Not for me and the wife I'm afraid at that price 2 or 3 others that we spoke to last week are giving it a miss also.

Are you forgetting that "the car park is free"??? Bargain.... (according to some) !! :P

Aye over 110  miles round trip plus programme couple of fish suppers near enough £100 can't afford that.

Totally agree.  The person who was proclaiming the free car park as part of "the great deal" thinks all fans live "down the road" and don't travel (bearing in mind one of the opposition is Kent, is rather ridiculous!!).  Nowt to do with me (obviously), but I think Berwick have rather over-pitched the price somewhat.  But no doubt will be buoyed by the thousands flocking to Shielfield tonight.  Good luck with that one.

Understandable...

60/64 quid for less than forty mins of "entertainment" does appear excessive.. 

Especially given that some will possibly be not interested in 50% of what's on offer..

And, with all the best will in the world, curfews have had a habit over the years of preventing 30 races from taking place..

Experienced, and forward thinking promoters though, so hopefully their finger is on the pulse and it is a successful night..
