cfcuk Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Max, it is only a good package if you value all that is on offer. I was looking into getting my nephew booked in for his birthday as he started coming to games with me last season just as the team picked up under Danny. What would make his day is meeting the team and leading them onto the pitch. Neither he nor I have any interest in sitting in the boardroom, getting pies at half time or having comfy seats. We have our usual place in the stand and that was more than enough for my son who has been mascot twice. It meant more to him to go back to the group of friends and family excited and to watch the game after the formalities. Perhaps tiered pricing may be an alternative but then, as you say(or allude to) it's all about making money, not connecting with your fanbase. We need to remember where we currently are in the game.Difficult to please everyone, it has been free in the past, but obviously the club are trying to tap into revenue streams and I personally think it's a pretty good package I'm sure if you could get two kids on the one package ? My boys were mascots 20 odd years ago , yes it cost nothing well two full kits and at that time I had to pay them into games. I think it's a bit off the mark to imply that the club are not interested in connecting with fans and it's all about money when they are letting kids in for free the entire season .As far as money is concerned we have assembled a squad capable of winning the league and that costs , fans have put money in through flying start etc I disagreed with the pricing of the friendlies and as such won't be going , bit like the mascot scheme if people don't think it's value for money they won't pay it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Email the club or contact the supporters liason officer I'm sure they will accommodate your request probably at lower cost if its just leading the teams out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you misunderstood my point - I wasn't saying the club aren't trying to connect with the fans ( the last 6-9 months has seen the best unity for a long time). I was calling out the implication that a fourth tier club should be acting like a premiership club and putting profit before making mascotting accessible to the fan base. We have had folk saying their income prevents them from paying £35 for a CIC membership, yet being a mascot costs over twice that? Hitting the pricing sweet spot is always a challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, for a start my dear Clyde Man, I made that remark on the QP thread and not this one, so you also seem guilty of taking a greater degree of interest than ought to be proportionate for a club you deem to be an irrelevance, or does that irony continue to escape you as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
