Kyle, maybe support the club by buying a ticket, not searching out freebies, & not spending money on overpriced catering inside the stadium.
I've had a season ticket the last 3 seasons. The two before that I had a Nix Six, as well as buying individual tickets to most of the other home games. So I'm sorry for trying to (and sometimes succeeding to)  get freebies to give to people who otherwise wouldn't have gone to the games to try and get them to become regulars. How dare I try and expand our fanbase. Instead of jumping to accuse me of not supporting the club, I would appreciate it if next time you took the time to find out what I've just mentioned

My apologies for hitting a nerve. I didn't say you don't support the club at all, what I said is highlighted above. What I could have said is "by accepting the freebies, the club is missing out on a paying customer". 

I didn't mean to question your integrity, I misunderstood your original post, it was implied that the free tickets were for you. Good on you for getting more people along, did they come to other games & buy tickets, or were they disillussioned with the usual tripe we get served up at "Home" ?  ;)

All good, I can see you're certainly passionate about all this. I actually don't know if they ended up going to more, but lets hope there's going to be plenty more opportunities in this season to do so. 

And in response to you saying "by accepting the freebies, the club is missing out on a paying customer", I don't completely agree with that. There will be plenty of people who get free tickets who wouldn't have gone to games without them. But the short term loss could become a long term gain if these people get hooked and come back more often. But that's a bit off-topic
