    Aye too true. It never even cost my parents more than £20 for them, me and my 2 brothers and a few pints for my dad before the match at the Wolsey!!

    Let's be honest, Naismith isn't paying for these tickets.

    It's a PR only stunt, and Smug is right, why should they get free tickets when people graft their balls off on minimum wage and can't afford to go.

    Cringeworthy.

    The point about the low waged is a good one as they are as deserving of a treat as the genuine unemployed, however any gesture such as this is to be applauded, if it is abused then the perpetrators should be exposed and shamed.
