Hartlepool United reveal BOGOF ticket offer

The club have announced that anyone buying a ticker for the home game with Crewe Alexandra on Tuesday, February 28, will also gain entry for the Exeter City clash at the Northern Gas & Power Stadium, on Saturday, March 4, free of charge.

The offer will remain open to Pools fans right up until kick-off, but a statement on the club's website urged punters to purchase early to avoid queues on the evening of the game.

Manager Dave Jones is backing the idea.

He hopes that getting more fans through the door will help to replicate the atmosphere created at the Vic during the weekend draw with high-flying Plymouth Argyle.

The manager said: "Everyone was commenting about how good the atmosphere was during the game on Saturday and we want more of that now.

"Getting that backing is going to be crucial in our run-in and hopefully this great ticket deal will enable more fans to come and along and get behind the players.

"We have a very young side at the moment and they need all the encouragement the fans can give them – you saw how much of an impact it had during Saturday’s game.

"If we can keep that noise going and even turn it up a notch in our coming fixtures then hopefully we can start turning The Northern Gas and Power Stadium in to a real fortress."
