I used to go with my old man when I was really young so have no idea how much he paid in the early 80's.
When I first started going on my own in the late 80's it was 1.50p to stand in the Pontoon and 2.50p to sit in the main stand.
My first season ticket cost 40 quid in 1989

Used to get a free kids season ticket with an adult so I was free.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause
