I was one of the ones who didn't go, I had bought a ticket but the day before the match my cousin asked if a wanted to see him, and as that day was the last day before he went back up to York for the rest of his University term, I couldn't say no.
Is Bromley so wealthy a borough that 500-odd people have the disposable income to buy a Bromley season ticket and use it only when they feel like it?
Firstly it’s more in the bracket of 800-1000 (41%) ST holders not attending!
I’m certainly not wealthy but choose to buy a ST knowing that due to work commitments I would not be able to attend a fair few games but wanting to ensure I could get a ticket for games I could go to, (knowing this could be difficult when the ET was due to close etc) and by paying via DD it’s less than £10 a week, also as a long term supporter I was happy enough for the club I love to have this from me.
Taking this into account was the ST to cheap? If it had been the £100/150 more then I probably wouldn’t have bought one.
This leads to the concern of will RSG look at this next season and decide to up the ST cost knowing less will buy but more will have access to on the day higher prices match day tickets!
Im one of the missing from the Gillingham game. I am a season ticket holder but I'm unable to attend weekday games as they are too late a start. I did try and help club out by letting them know I can't attend when asked. Haven't missed a weekend match yet!

Thank for that feedback.

Could anyone blame him if he put the price up?
Definitely not, He wants a full ground and if it takes upping the ST prices to achieve that I wouldn’t criticise.
It’s obviously that asking those who aren’t attending to release their ticket isn’t working!

Ah that gives some clarity as to why some may not attend. Thanks for the insight
