On a serious note though and slightly off topic it's a lovely ground and if ours looked something alike would be superb, but with 21k inside and 28k capacity it felt a little souless, other than the noise the Rovers fans made, just imagine what ours would be like with 4 to 8k inside ?
The fans, the members, the people there.. from the day I stepped foot onto that field at the AJ Bell Stadium,I knew I would love that club for the rest of my life. "Jackson Hastings"..

I think the most shamefull thing price wise at the club is the alcohol, when you can go down to your local supermarket and buy booze by the crate for what the club are charging for 3 luke warm cans what incentive is there to get into the ground early and enjoy the experience???.

Think yourselves lucky! £20 at Wakey this year, poop ground poop price. If you get your tickets early its £18 but £20 to get in at Belle Vue is simply daylight robbery. Feel for the away fans as no ones going to come over before the game in order to save £2 unless you can ring and book tickets then collect them on match day. If its £20 at our current ground how much will it be if we get our new stadium????

That is scandalous. I assume (hope) that they will be sending advance tickets to the away team for them to sell.
I wouldn't be surprised to see crowds dropping across SL next year. Last season was pretty dull, and I think the year-on-year admission price increases are reaching the limit of what people will stand.

Each club is obliged to offer the visiting club the opportunity to sell tickets in advance in accordance to being entitled to 10% of pre-sales. Whether clubs accept that opportunity is another matter, but at £20 for Belle Vue, I'm glad we're in the Championship!

Some clubs will offer a pre-purchase discount when bought directly from them, but no pre-purchase discount on tickets sold by the away team (due to the away team's cut) - to be frank, £18 is way too much for a ground with no cover and pretty poor views.

That's just Salford, Iain Never known a club not to back down when they have been challenged over such an issue.
