The ending to last season and style of play, folk will be more likely to dip in and out of attendance. very little excitement generated in the transfer market, especially early on The price getting lumped up again, for the same product as last year The lack of any excitement generated from the club and an increasing gulf between the fans and the club. The shambles anyone who did buy one had to go through which was greeted by a shrug of the shoulders by the club I can see why. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've actually not got around to buying my own yet but will probably deal early next week. I do think our attendance is a bit odd. We seem to have a very strong core support which is translates into excellent away support (I haven't worked it out but I would imagine our away to home support ratio must be one of the best in the division). But other clubs that on the face of it should be similar to ours manage to outsell us by a significant margin. Marketing has been very poor during this close season and I won't reopen the whole discussion about the improvement that is needed in the use of social media as a marketing tool. I guess we should really be focussed on overall attendance though. I have said in the past that I think that a season ticket is very simplistic legacy pricing model and that with digital ticketing we should be looking at other pricing models to create incentives to attend etc. It does come down to the technology though and it's clear the club does not have service providers in that space who are up to the mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their board denied any interest in him last night but maybe just keep cards close to their chest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, even the pay up option wasn't exactly what I'd call realistic (£70 a month I think). They need to get that out way earlier this season to make it attractive. Half seasons for both halves - make it slightly less attractive than the full season is or something. Multi game packages. Similar to directly above but include hospitality in some way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely buy a half season now if I could too - full price just a bit too much atm and it’s hard planning too far ahead with my shifts. Definitely lots more that can be done! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryMc93 Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Are the club concerned they'd get ridiculed by opposition fans if they were transparent about season ticket sales? If so we'll never improve them if we don't promote them or maybe the website couldn't cope with some sort of countometer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just annoying 1/3 ground is the away and and virtually impossible to hold home and away fans and segregate in any big matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbroath have sold more than us but are £60 less for an adult. And a juveniles season ticket, probably the most important one, is £30 less. They are part time and possibly have less overheads so can offer a cheaper season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
