Spot on Jimbo. A brave move and one that I'll be taking advantage of next week. I really, really hope that it pays off.

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

A fab move by the club, really hope it pays off and people sign up... :)

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

well even cashys considering it.:)

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

Ah you may be right, still wouldn't even dare quibble at that price, still an awesome deal.

I wonder if the 3x£10 stanley store vouchers can be used at once in the club shop ?

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

I was listening to 2BR on the way home and Dan was talking to Dan the commercial man. Dan commercial man definitely began a sentence with 'the vouchers for adults and concessions are...". I hope it wasn't a mistake. Still, as you say, a deal not to be sniffed at either way.

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

Oops, just realised that a concession ticket is different from a student one!

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

If the walk on price was reduced to £10, then a season ticket works out at 14 paid games and 9 free ones.
or if you leave it until after the deadline, 19 paid for games and 4 free ones.

The more the walk-on price, the better value the season ticket is.

By the way, with the vouchers, £150 should get you a season ticket and a shirt. that makes it even better.:)

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

I'll agree with that, but to get really good crowds on at local derbys they could then reduce it to £10 or even £5 to fill the ground, with the season ticket holder getting such a good deal I would hope there would be no complaining about it like there has in the past

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

There was a discussion on a Burnley board about the Stanley attendances. Maybe the following post may provide food for thought about pricing;

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

It must have been a very long time ago, if it was £5 to get in.

As for the second point, well it's no different now. You can still hear the banter because the ground is largely empty. ;)

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

Well I have to say I am amazed.. its been 24 hrs and 40 posts in this thread without anyone slagging off the club or attacking Eric.. is this a record?

See you can do it if you try :)

Don't suppose it will last, but by eck its refreshing ...

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

It was more the general opinion than the exact prices that I posted it. I guess nobody really knows how many 'secondary' fans Stanley used to get in the conference days or still get now. Maybe another guide was the match against Torquay which was a lockout. Difficult choice for many clubs with half empty grounds week in week out. Is it better to aim for a 1,000 gate at £13 a throw, or a 2,000 gate at £6.50. The second option is only going to make more money if you can get more money off them while they are there.

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

Actually its only going to work if you can get 2000 to pay £6.50 .. I have serious doubts that we could sustain a 2k average in accy..at any price.

I absoloutly agree 100% about the floating fans.. the reason they came has now been taken away from them due to our success.. even some stanley fans hanker after non league..

I dont know where 2000 regulars would come from.. cant see it meself :(

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

You are spot on Lancsdave with the last line! So it is up to us as a club,with all the people that we have empolyed to just that (increase our income/cashflow) to do just that and build on the season ticket idea :) so when they turn up at the club we have on offer, things that people want to buy, when they want to buy them.....:D:D:D

Re: Season tickets 09/10
 

I for one will not be taking Eric's washers for working as a steward next season, I will be returning them for a ST and instead of watching unruly and ruly supporters, I will become one of them again, well done the club for this initiative.
