Supporters are able to purchase 2017/18 season tickets, which were frozen from the current campaign, at a rate that works out at roughly £12-per-adult per game.

The club are insistent that an extension to the deadline will not be offered and tomorrow brings a final chance to purchase tickets from Greenhous Meadow, online or over the phone.

Chief executive Brian Caldwell is keen to reach 2,000 sales by tomorrow’s deadline.

“We extended it from the end of March and in the past we’ve always extended but this time we’ve decided to not do that and have it fair with April 15 to include those that are paid,” said the Scot.

“It works out at a really good price. We’re one of the cheapest in the league and hopefully these can be League One prices next year, fingers crossed.

“It’s good value for money and an option to pay it over 10-month instalments.”

It remains to be seen whether Paul Hurst’s Town side will play in League One or League Two next season as the side continue their battle with the drop with three games remaining this season.

Caldwell added: “I think we’ll sell another couple of hundred over the next 24 hours as we get to Saturday midday with them available online until midnight.

“I’d be disappointed if we didn’t do another 300 between now and tomorrow which would mean the same as last season (where the deadline was extended). It’d be good if we can increase it.”
