Couldn't get it to work at all. Not had a problem before but this time, absolutely nothing. Still, it's a bit of cash for the club, so I'll persevere.

For away league games stanley have to sell above an agreed threshold to get any money back, from Holts figures they had only done this once, and that was due to the threshold being 106 which was a lot lower than agreed for other games.

I'm not sure how the threshold is agreed, maybe the previous season's away figure although Ipswich away may need to based on the last visit to colchester 2 years ago.

Obviously not a lot of take up on the away games then.

More stanley fans buy the away games (around 170) then the home games (around 100).

There season ticket free watchers are in the 300s for home games, and away sales from away fans ranged from 108 (Fleetwood) to 1,123 (Peterborough).

For posh it was agreed stanley got the first 645 away sales, for Oxford who sold 1,092 it was 460. so they got 632 and Stanley got 460 + home sales of 115 = 575. Therefore Oxford get more income for stanley home game than the club who bare the expenses.

The data only covered up to fleetwood on 20th Oct, but it was enough to give a good picture that Stanley are getting very little. The opposite side of the coin is stanley wil have seen a lower drop in income from having smaller crowds too start with.

I suppose it just goes to underline the fact that without match day income......crowds attending games, both home and away there is no future for teams below the premiership in the current football pyramid. .....But then we all new that anyway. Just glad we've got Andy Holt in charge to hopefully see us tbrough to next season....when god willing.....we have a vaccine and can all be getting back to the Wham Stadium on match days.

In the meantime all we can do is support the club by whatever financial means possible...........iFollow, merchandise, draw tickets, donations, player sponsorship, advertising and ALL!!!!

The £50 million bailout from the Premiership has been agreed on just the finer details of how it is going to be distributed to be discussed I believe so will if used correctly keep clubs afloat until the return of fans, hopefully this season but can see it being around March time with the better weather and if the vaccine has been passed getting up to speed on mass rollout.

I could only get audio as well, I was blaming my dodgy Wi-Fi, but it seems it wasn't just me.

It appears and I,m no technology expert to be hit and miss, if you are unfortunate to miss don't bother asking for refund you don't get one, with the issues and the apparent lack of overall interest no fans at grounds I do worry is it going to be the same when not just at football things open up will people just go back to as it was?

wonder if the problem is actually where you live. only get the slightest of interference to be honest. far les than in the stand watching live with the constant getting up and down letting people past to get rid of their pre match ale and kids who cannot go for more than 30 minutes without food. actually miss having a good natter to folk at the game more than seeing the game live now i,ve got into it.

cashman · 16-11-2020, 08:53

Being a reader of other clubs forums apparently quite a few fans at different clubs have had problems.
