My son already has a season ticket (free this year as a renewal) but at that price I will be getting one for my daughter who only comes to occasional games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 It’s a step in the right direction and, at long last, a sign that concerns are being listened to. Prepared to accept that in good faith. I still think the £50 per ST outside of this offer to ST holders and members is a touch on the steep side when other clubs in the league are going free on that front. However, you’d hope that the free tickets to schools might sweep up that particular problem for people unable to afford it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be mis-remembering but am sure I read somewhere that the McAlpine sign was taken down for cleaning and is going back up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QP MAD Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Give the surrounding schools an option to buy the discounted season tickets….might make it easier for a family to come and watch. We have 52000 seats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemingly was a shock to the President who committed to taking it back to the Marketing team. It’s those members who deserve the applause. I appreciate the way the message has been announced doesn’t leave room for doubt it’s a club initiative, but it wasn’t. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if this was intentional regardless of how the President reacted at the EGM. Space at Lesser was severely limited, so they really couldn't afford to make it too appealing at least initially! Still think the price could be better but it's a step in the right direction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 52000 seats. As someone who works in schools. There isn’t the money for it! However, tickets for schools… with 52,000 seats to fill: why not offer them for free? Not like they’ll need to hire substantially more stewards. May lead to an uptake in attendances next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B McAlpine Pavillion sign, the year our club was founded on the hat. Too many ‘little mistakes’ are adding up together. If you’re not capable of doing your job, should you be in that job? The club are desperate to score own goals at this stage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit for the quick response to the outcry on twitter, but you’d think that the club must have some form of ‘once over’ on designs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge fan of a claim of responsibility being communicated to an affiliate group of the club, like some sort of terrorist organisation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
