THACKLEY are keeping up with the neighbours by setting their season ticket prices as low as possible to offer affordable football.

With Sky Bet League One side Bradford City and new Premier League outfit Huddersfield Town both offering great deals to their supporters, Thackley have come up with their own special deal.

For £50 an adult Thackley fan can see 21 first team games, all under-21’s fixtures and every league fixture for the new women’s team.

Concessions will pay half of that with 12 to 16 year olds just £10 while accompanied under-12’s are free.

The club’s commercial manager Andy Blyth said: “It works out at approximately more than 50 games for £50 so we’re really proud of the offer.

“We know that there are 21 league games for the first team and 15 for the under-21’s but the new ladies side could be playing between 12 to 18, we just don’t know yet as their league structure is still to be confirmed.

“As a club we want to encourage as many people as possible to come down and experience the game atmosphere and give them as much as possible for the price, not just first team action but a chance to see the first ever ladies team at Thackley week in week out and the up and coming stars of the under-21’s team.

“We are a club that appreciates our local community and hopefully we want to give them access to some great football in return. We would like to see fans young and old taking advantage of these great prices.”

Bradford City have run cheap season tickets and flexi-card deals for a number of seasons and the Terriers have not priced their fans out just because they have reached the top tier of the English game.

Thackley are also running a competition to win one free adult and child season ticket.

Blyth added, “It’s a give away – what’s better than free football?

“It’s a comp on social media essentially and easy to enter. Just look us up on Facebook or Twitter, like the page or follow us and then share or re-tweet our competition graphic and you’re entered.

“For anyone not on social media, if they contact the club I will give them an email address where they can send their entry. We will select a random winner this Friday at 7.30pm.”
