Got to say it's a bit of a no brainer really.....
Bradford - Bigger fanbase, bigger catchment area.Gambling on getting money in now in order to achieve success and elevation to higher levels.Will it, or is it working?? Well on their current league standing and current average gates,it may well seem to be.
Stanley- Small but loyal fanbase,stuck between a rock and a hard place (i.e Blackburn and Burnley) A chairman whose first priority is to balance the books and make sure the club doesn't get dragged into the red.
Admittedly,since the conference winning days,gates have dwindled somewhat.The same can be said of other sides who have made the step up,Ala Morecambe and Dagenham have seen their average attendances fall.
But (and I'm sure Eric won't),to take a massive gamble with such a scheme would jeopardise our current financial stability. Better to work on improving on what we already have, rather than taking a massive leap into the unknown.Hopefully with continued improvement on the pitch and moves on the running of the club off it,gates may slowly improve.
If we're looking to attract even a couple of hundred fans back onto the F.E.S. maybe a better idea would be to knock the odd quid or two off lower profile games.Our neighbours (Rovers) already have such a scheme in place.Admittedly you're always liable to upset Season ticket holders with such a scheme,but maybe soften that blow with the offer of some form of discount for Season ticket holders at such games...Maybe a Free pie or Drink voucher issued at the Turnstile??
