Re: Season Tickets

For what it's worth I actually thought it was a good idea that never took off. I took advantage of the bonus vouchers when you signed up and used some of them but not all but back in the day I...

Re: Season Tickets

I think they scrapped the loyalty cards for under 12s because the season tickets were so cheap then made it £5 for those without a season ticket

Re: Season Tickets

They're a blast from the past! How long is it since we last tried them, I think I might still have the odd one somewhere :D . What next, a revamped Stanley Legends :D

Re: Season Tickets

You should try buying a matchday ticket with a bank card. Pay in the shop then take the receipt to the booth! Unless they have saw sense recently :D

Re: Season Tickets

More bureaucratic lunacy especially for over 65s - I've yet to see anybody get younger than 65 once they've reached that age. Some may think they will but they won't :D .

My guess would be that...

Re: Season Tickets

Enough, this is a serious subject! If we don't sell the season tickets we will have to cut our cloth accordingly but still get players able to put the ball in the onion bag.

I'll get my coat! :D

Correct but watch they don't go out of fashion first. Careful timing is required

You aren't going to sell a suit to someone who only wants a pair of trousers though. Do you sell 700 suits and be left with 300 or sell the trousers for slightly more and only be left with 300...

Re: Season Tickets

Since they are "season tickets" they are only available in home areas so away fans can't buy them. To do so would be against segregation rules.

Not an issue in reality

Re: Season Tickets

I agree that we shouldn't be charging away fans £20 but it's an economic necessity for now. It is not against the rules as walk on prices are the same.

Flexi tickets were treated as season tickets...

Re: Season Tickets

I had spoken to our MD about them at Carlisle near the end of last season and he asked me to email him as he sounded enthusiastic but his reply was they were not being continued.

To be honest he...

Re: Season Tickets

OK, since you obviously either don't grasp the concept or have a pathological hatred of flexitickets, how else are you going to get home fans to pay upfront where a season ticket is no good, pay less...

Re: Season Tickets

You are correct in what you say however the flexibility was in what games you chose to attend because unlike season tickets you could only attend a fixed number of games. You could argue the same...

Re: Season Tickets

The clue was in the bit where i said I bought them at a previous game. This was common knowledge to most people that had flexi tickets although in general the tickets were pre printed anyway s...

Re: Season Tickets

I swapped my flexiticket voucher for a ticket in advance at a game before. It wasn't that difficult.

Re: Season Tickets

It was £150 for 10 tickets which could be swapped for match tickets for any game and any number per game. If you bought it preseason you could sometimes get it for £135

I would count myself in the same category. Having paid upfront was often the deciding factor more so these days. It was a simple scheme with little administration costs that suited those where a...

Re: Season Tickets

If it was as easy as that we would have a lot more fans. I think the approach is "look how cheap a season ticket for Stanley is and you can pay by installments" which results in new fans.

Re: Season Tickets

believe it or not but £220 in spare cash is a lot of money to some people even if they know when it's due. Having installments through the summer when there are no games make it easier to use the...

Re: Season Tickets

The away fans don't have many seats so if you want to fleece them then you have to charge the home fans the same.

If you increase the price for seats then probably less people will pay it.
