For me 50/50 is terrible. What’s the average prize? My estimate is £300. I also watch Sheffield Steelers and most weeks the 50/50 is above £2,000 for the winner. They have people selling them in the breaks etc. We could still be taking money at half time and draw it later. I’ve seen it over £10,000 when they play panthers. Admittedly that’s when it’s full ie 9,300 attendance. Surely on 5,000 gate we should be aiming higher than the pittance on offer.

I agree always said this when I’ve gone to watch Nottingham Panthers the 50/50 is excellent

Maybe they should add a few stags related prizes to encourage sales.

It wouldn't cost anything to give away match day tickets or family tickets as extra prizes and may encourage more to have a punt. If the prize is £300 that's odds of 600 to 1 against winning so most wouldn't bother. Chuck in a few free tickets and the odds fall dramatically.
