So we allow Canaries fans in cheap and genuine KLTFC fans pay full price on NON LEAGUE DAY. If I'm correct it's not really encouraging local non Canaries fans from attending.

The alternative view on Non-League day is that it is an opportunity for non-league clubs up and down the country to open their doors, often at a discount, to encourage those who watch football at a higher level to give their local non-league club a go and see if they enjoy it.  Whilst the crowds at the Walks have held up better than results on the pitch this season, I don't think there are many who wouldn't want to see an extra couple of hundred more there each week, even if KLTFC are those fans 'second team'.

I don't understand why Norwich fans are being given preferential treatment over everyone else, it should be the same for all (or more for Norwich fans  )

Clearly Lynn think by offering a good discount it might encourage Norwich supporters (especially those living in West Norfolk) to come to our matches, perhaps when Norwich are away or instead of the painful ride up the A47 (if it's open!),the expensive parking and the large crowds on a Saturday/mid week.

It makes good sense and is pretty standard business for any company trying to attract new customers. I accept and, understand why some regular Lynn supporters may be a bit annoyed, but I would hope that even they would wish the club to try to boost crowds.

EXACTLY MY POINT.
