Well this ended up being quite the podcast. What felt like a fairly low-key review of a low-key win over Fleetwood, with some discussion about a couple of stadium issues, turns on its head when Nick discovers how much we charge for matchday admission to League Two football. We actually delve into a few ticket issues this week, from the good of box office staff, to the bad of prices, to the ugly of fake and digital tickets. We also have a hilarious edition of My Father was a John-Joe O’Toole-maker, and somehow end up back on Stu’s favourite subject: Geography.

Supply and demand for tickets for a one of game drives the pricing plus they have to be agreed with the opposition. This is the world we live in.
True – wonder what the price would reach before people said no? Yeah we forgot about cup tickets needing agreement between clubs; will mention next week.
