You are right in that it was not really to do with Nigel

although the team doing well obviously helped. More to do with clever marketing in first giving cheap season tickets to kids and under 16s (its all about getting people into the habit of going to football on saturdays) and then subsequently creating the cap/waiting list scenario we have now where people are so worried they won't get a ticket they all get season tickets.

Andy Cullen deserves a lot of credit for it if you ask me.
