offered a discount for Blackpool fans travelling to Burnley, which would then be reciprocated
on the return fixture at Bloomfield Road.
Blackpool also rejected Reading FC offer to reciprocate away tickets at £20 per adult, for the
opening game of the championship season.
Burnley have extended the offer to all 23 championship clubs for this season, in order to
provide a better deal for their own supporters, making away trips this season.
Blackpool said, the club always looks for opportunities to help supporters, but declined Burnley's
offer, saying they are helping supporters by offering £15 coach trip price to Burnley, which will
aid travel during the rail strike, & a £20 cost for coaches to Stoke City, at a time where prices
continue to rise.
Adding, Blackpool aren't able to benefit from parachute payments & premier league subsidies,
& as such have to run the club in a way that works best for Blackpool, in order to be able to
compete with bigger clubs, in the division.
Blackpool have received a full allocation of 2,354 tickets for the Lancashire derby at Turf Moor.
Prices
£30 Adult / £27 restricted viewing
£20 Seniors [over 65] / £17 restricted viewing
£22 Under 22's / £17 restricted viewing
£18 Under 18's / £15 restricted viewing
