Going back to the original question, few things:

- Keep prices simple for next season £15 for adults and look to do promotions on Friday night games only, this is something we should be looking at to try and differentiate to other clubs. 4 Friday games would help to make sure we are not directly competing against Burnley or Blackburn and may encourage more walk ons from both sets of fans. Make tickets for these games £10.

- For games where low attendances are expected try and offer pie and peas and a pint and hospitality for £20 to ensure full use of clubhouse for games in particular on Tuesday nights where attendances are lower.

- Try and get a matchday club going for kids to attract families and help build up attendances over a period of time.

- Promote things better on social media, it took until the Saturday before the Morecambe game to actually promote the reduced prices.

- Get the catering units back in house and get a few kids in to do the serving with one cook preparing the food, plenty of profit in doing it and will help boost income for the club.

- Push the flexi ticket offer more, the idea is a good one, make it more visible and it will catch a few more supporters.
