    So you have the daggers in the quarter finals of the JPT.
    Have just read that your chairman has said that if you get a crowd of 8000 + against Shrewsbury, he will let everybody in for £4.

    Is that possible or is he safe?

    Is that possible to get 8000 against Shrewsbury then?
    What is your average attendance?

    Our average so far this season is a little over 7,000 - the only game we have exceeded 8,000 so far was
    against MK.

    The average Home attendance is around 6,300, I cannot see Shrewsbury bringing more than 500 and, with
    no disrespect to Shrewsbury, they are not a 'crowd-pulling' attraction. To expect an increase in the Home
    attendance of 20-25% for this game is a big ask, so I think Darragh is safe on this one though I would love to
    be proved wrong.

    For the last round of the JPT tickets were priced at £5 and led to over 5,000 fans attending, almost double the
    usual amount for an early round of the JPT. Many of those that came were new to Posh so it seems a good strategy
    for increasing the fan base.

    You've got a good chairman there and one that communicates with the fans.

    It could be done then. A nice little tempter by your chairman

    For what it's worth...I suggest Posh exit the paint pot...concentrate on the league.

    Maybe Johnson's do a nice shade of pink. They could paint the turnstiles to match their shirts <whistle>

    Talking of turnstiles Maestro, do you have the same problem at Carrow Road - I am
    sure the turnstiles at London Road get smaller every year, or is there another cause I wonder...?
