For sure you are right and there is little doubt the crowd will not be much more than 12,000 or so (8,500 season tickets + 1,800 from celtic + 2,000 or so who will pay the walk up prices). There is no doubt Cormack has got the pricing completely wrong given our current form etc but the point I was (poorly) trying to make was that even if prices were only say £25 instead of £32 I doubt we would get many more walk ups given all of the circumstances around the game including live TV/time/day/form/quality of football etc
The ONLY solution to improving crowd numbers (by attracting your non-core fan) is to win more games, score more goals and generally provide a far better level of entertainment. You need to do that first and only after that is place can you then think about increasing prices for the bigger games. It's not complicated so over to you Cormack/Glass.
