    Consession tickets.....

    Currently available for over 65's.Yet over 60 gets a free bus pass in Scotland.Could the concession ticket for Palmerston not be brought down to the same level,possibly enticing a few more through the gates?

    You do realise that Gary Naysmith is currently working with probably the smallest budget since we went full time. Times are hard at Palmerston , very hard. We need every penny possible

    yes spot on bagapapa thats one of the main reasons the floating fan wont attend ,prices ,,but i do realise that to attract the kind of players needed to move us to the next level needs funding ,i think queens need to try look at more ways to generate cash outside of the gate money as and then you could reduce the reliance of gate prices ,which in turn would or should generate more fans .as with prices the way they are queens will just attract the faithful with the odd few extra when challenging top 4 .

    It's youth we need to attract not pensioners.

    Btw, 60 for a bus pass is pathetic anyway. It's 2018, 60 is practically middle aged these days lol

    its the age groups between 18 and pension age we need to cater for as thats where the prices are most offputting in that age group ,a floating dumfries public will rarely part with 18 quid to watch queens in the championship ,only the faithful queens fan sees those prices as ok ,people who dont attend palmy dont .
