Some people have tweeted about the reintroduction of the flexi ticket. So I tweeted Andy Holt to see if it could be reintroduced as well as the loyalty card. Or any other carrot we can dangle to get people in. I will wait and see what comes back. We all know in our heart of hearts that the crowds we have will not sustain the club. The amount of work going on at the moment is expensive and will improve the access and parking at the ground. Things are progressing well. I have had my whinges like everybody else. we need to try everything we can think of to get a home crowd of at least 2000 for the finances and the atmosphere. We can all push our ideas and if the club management can see the sense in what people are saying we have more than half a chance. We have to remember the biggest barrier to attracting young fans is Brand association, MAN U will be named as their first team rather than Accy. We have to restore a pride in our towns team. How many fans of the top premier league teams can actually get in to a match? We can offer the real deal for football close to the pitch and the reality of what is involved in a proper match.
Grass roots football. We know this is a low wage area with high levels of unemployment and we have to cater for those people like we used to do. We need a more public campaign to draw the crowds. We should also have a full time womens football team as women's football is well on the way up.
