Good move by the club. Need to get the message out to all local schools and grass roots football clubs in the area. Also need to point out this to other locals fans of our larger neighbors (Boro, Newcastle, Sunderland) big push for affordable football if a Parent and 2 children U11 can get in for £14. Why not pop along if your side isn't playing.

Very nice. I can see those seats filling up very quickly, and demand for more :clap:

All more money in the clubs coffers. It's good to see such a detailed and thought out plan. It's a million miles away from the shambolic stand that ended up left at Bishop. Well done to all concerned.

Great move by the club, hopefully attract a good young crowd to the game.

Fantastic, despite my son being 11 soon. A long awaited initiative from the club. I wonder what will be the next ground development. Some low terracing should be relatively cheap to procure and build, with fans finding waste fill and the civils work.

Yes, great idea. If this club is serious about the future we must get the youngsters used to following the Quakers. Too easy to get hooked into watching TV and never seeing a team in the flesh because of the prices, let alone unavailability of tickets.

I think we have more youths in our average crowd, than a lot of clubs at our level. If you go to some of these smaller clubs, they generally have quite an old fanbase. Having said that the more we can get involved the better and for the future of our club, long after us old sods have long gone!!
