The one area we miss on and need to capatilise on is Season Tickets if the offer was announced early enough it could give people a chance to save without perhaps having to look at offering payments over a period as you know exactly what you need to pay & when and do it for very limited period and was pitched at the correct price e.g a decent saving on walk on prices then it should work. Like for like in terms of percentages we probably have bigger walk ons than Burnley & Blackburn do and there in lies part of the problem, if Season Ticket sales broke for example 1500 there would potentially be an influx of £200000+ at the right time of the Season when you want to be building a squad from there in you know you have got a minimum potential audience every week for sales of beer, food, programmes and merchandise.
