Argyle fans lifted by reduced entry

The new Home Park board have marked the end of their first week in charge by getting rid of a £2 surcharge on tickets. Also, access to the Mayflower Terracing seating has been reduced to just £15 - a saving of £7 on a full-price adult ticket. The pricing policy is a direct result of the board of directors' early interaction with the Green Army, including comments made by fans on the new supporters' website ArgyleInsider.com. In the past, it has cost adult supporters buying tickets on a match-day £26 to watch the Greens - £2 more than if they purchased a ticket the day before, or earlier. Now, whether they buy a ticket in advance of the game or on the day, the price will be £24. New Argyle director Keith Todd said: "We have been delighted with the fantastic response of the Green Army to the dawn of the 'New World' at Home Park. We have listened intently to what the fans have been telling us - in person and via Argyle Insider - since we took control last week. As a result, we have abolished the match-day surcharge. "The £15 that it will cost to watch Championship football from the Mayflower Terrace represents exceptional value for money. We hope that these initiatives will encourage supporters to come to Home Park and help us fulfil our ambition of making our first Championship game against Queens Park Rangers on August 15 a sell-out."
