Chairman John Radford said: "We're now allowing young supporters to pay £1 on the day of the game because we want as many people as possible inside the ground to support our promotion push. We're also mindful that money can be scarcer just after Christmas."

Supporters are encouraged to arrive early at the ticket office for this Saturday's match at home to Accrington Stanley (3pm) to avoid long queues.

The club's ticket office is now closed and will re-open on Saturday 02 January at 10am for young supporters who want to take advantage of this superb offer.

For clarification, the offer is applicable to games at One Call Stadium for the following games: Accrington Stanley (Saturday 02 January, 3pm), Stevenage (Saturday 09 January, 3pm) and Luton Town (Saturday 23 January, 3pm) and is available to home fans only.

Fans aged 17 and under must purchase their ticket in person at the ticket office to be entitled to this super-saving ticket.

Identification of age must be produced upon purchase at the ticket office on Quarry Lane.

Supporters are reminded that fans aged under seven are still admitted into One Call Stadium for FREE for every home league game this season, when accompanied by a paying adult, but must buy a ticket at the ticket office before entering the stadium.

Supporters aged 17 and under who have already purchased tickets at full price for the aforementioned matches can exchange their ticket for any home league game this season.

Manager Adam Murray today encouraged the young people of Mansfield to take full advantage of the offer.

“We need the next generation of Stags’ fans to fill the seats at One Call Stadium and need them to make some noise and support their local club,” said Murray.

“The offer which the chairman has made available is a unique opportunity at a professional club at this level.

“Come and enjoy the atmosphere, a good brand of football and a team that is chasing success and one which is on the up.

“We want you to be a part of the future of Mansfield Town. Be a part of a club which is moving forward rapidly.

“We are striving for success here. Now we need the Town to jump on board.”

‘Kids for a Quid’ as Mansfield Town chairman John Radford calls on the town to back promotion push
chad.co.uk, by John Lomas

Mansfield Town chairman John Radford is to make the next three home games ‘Kids for a Quid’ as he calls on the town to help push the side to promotion.

Stags enter 2016 in 11th position in League Two, just two points off the play-offs and Radford has announced U18s will be admitted for just £1 for the next three homes games as long as tickets are pre-purchased.

“This season, as far as I am concerned, has been really good and I think we have the opportunity to really make it and get promoted,” he said.

“We have got the right manager in place, we’ve got a fantastic team, we’ve got fantastic fans.

“So for the next three home games, for anyone who is under 18 it’s just £1 to get into the game.

“This will give people who haven’t had the opportunity the chance to get down to the ground and watch the style of football being played.

“It’s three fantastic games - we’ve got Accrington, Stevenage and Luton Town and this place should be full against Luton Town.”

Radford is convinced his side have a great chance of going up under Adam Murray this season.

He said: “I want to push. The manager wants it, the team wants it and I think the fans are the third cog in that. If we can get the youth in and behind us I think we have a chance of getting promoted.

“League One would be a fantastic league for us - lots of local games. The opportunity is there and we’ve got to grasp that now.

“The manager is committed to the town and to the club as am I and the fans, so let’s have a good New Year.”

Stags had over 3,300 of their own fans in the ground for yesterday’s 1-1 draw with York City.

The next home game is this Saturday against Accrington Stanley.
