The Bury match thread

OK I'm 4 weeks early.

Which brainbox at the Football League decided to reinstate fixtures for the last Saturday before Christmas?

Argyle v Bury on the 21st December is likely to attract the smallest home league crowd we'll see this season so 3 things spring to mind.

1. What plans do Argyle have to do something to attract supporters to this particular game?

2. How about a sweepstake to predict the crowd?

3. No post-Christmas home game until Torquay at home on NYD. Not good.

If ever there was an ideal game to put on some offers that would attract more fans, that's the one. Quid for a kid if accompanied by an adult? Or something else?

A free G&W Santa hat on arrival?

Vouchers for the forthcoming 3rd round FA Cup tie?

(Chickens being counted there!)

If we reach the third round of the Cup, we will know the opposition and home or away.

I think a voucher for the Cup tie (if it all pans out nicely) is a great idea.

Torquay on NYD should attract a larger crowd so how about a deal covering both games. Charge everyone the equivalent season ticket price if both tickets are bought in advance. Season ticket money is already in so anything on top will be a bonus.

If season ticket holders don't like that idea, then how about £30 for both?

POTD would be at normal prices.

Isn't there a rule though that you can't charge the away fans more than the home fans? We could offer the Torquay fans the same deal!

Free entry to any one accompanied by an orphan, wearing a santa hat or a Chris Webb mask.

Christmas isn't important to Muslims, this thread is well racist.

Well, I would've gone if I'd wanted to but I wouldn't have got back here in time for the game! Priorities innit.

Ideal opportunity for a free mug and sticker.

ATD mug and stickers obviously.

Now that would pee somebody off.  

People shop months before Christmas now... and often don't leave work/the home to do it (with online shopping). Even if you wanted to go shopping on that Saturday, you could go first thing... glad this game is on, there should be a good Christmassy atmosphere (especially if we continue our good run).

Surely the size of the crowd will be determined by how Argyle are doing and where Argyle are in the league.

If the improvements continue and Argyle continue to climb the league,then the crowd could surprise a few people.

Shameless bump.

This game now carries great importance.

I just hope the words said by JS are heeded by theses players. As they seem to have reverted back to being goal shy yet AGAIN.

A win over Bury would do nicely,as I do not think we will get a result at Oxford United on Boxing Day.

Never mind. Their ground has no seating or terracing at one end. What a village club they are ! Reckon the reluctant one took note of Oxford's previous owner. Doesn't he still 'own' just about everything ?

Free entry to anyone wearing this?
