With reduced ticket prices for the game the club are doing their best to generate support for the team that needs to keep a clean slate and win by at least 2-0 in order to progress further in the competition. Ticket prices for all areas are £10 or £5 for season ticket holders provided they purchase their tickets before the ticket office closes on the 14th.
