Season Tickets
 

Prices just announced on fishy site - says they're frozen but sure mine was £199 last year, now £219 - still cracking value though & early bird timescale is longer, from 6th March to 28th April - good stuff!! :D

Re: Season Tickets
 

Just read through the small print - early bird prices have been increased by 87p per game to 'keep overall costs down' but the standard prices (post early bird) have been frozen & are exactly same as last season - that explains the £20 increase for early birders, thought it was me remembering it wrong

Re: Season Tickets
 

Three cheers for Mr A Holt! Another cracking and irresistible bargain.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Don't see why you have to pay same price to stand as you do sit, surely it should be cheaper, not like your reserving a seat

Re: Season Tickets
 

The away fans don't have many seats so if you want to fleece them then you have to charge the home fans the same.

If you increase the price for seats then probably less people will pay it.

Re: Season Tickets
 

The price increase of £20 for the season overall is nothing in the scheme of things. I am sure somebody asked if we were prepared to pay an extra £20/25 to help with ground improvements. Not bothered just curious.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Much as I applaud the club with the early release of season ticket prices, my main beef is the length of time you get to pay them. 2 months is not enough. Payments should be spread over a maximum of 4 months at 3 x £54 per month and one of £53. More likely to get the 1,000 they want than trying to get the money in so quickly. If folk decide after the 30th June, then put the prices up to the £264.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Superbly cheap. More than willing to pay the extra £19 to offset U12's going down to a fiver.

Re: Season Tickets
 

I do think more people will benefit from installment choice, but then again everybody knows that season tickets are due and how much they're going to cost give or take a little

It's not like your boiler has packed in and got to find and unexpected £220 quid from somewhere!

Re: Season Tickets
 

Wrong, new fans we are trying to attract will more than like have little idea of prices etc?

Re: Season Tickets
 

believe it or not but £220 in spare cash is a lot of money to some people even if they know when it's due. Having installments through the summer when there are no games make it easier to use the money you would have spent going to games.

I know this defeats the purpose of needing the money in to cover the summer when there is no income but I thought there was less pressure for money these days. That and how many people would be involved in this.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Great value tickets again by the club.

Good to see the membership cards will be returning again as per this season, which I will be taking advantage of.

Re: Season Tickets
 

So if you was a new fan thinking of getting a season ticket for the first time, but didn't know the prices, surely you could ask a fellow fan at the game "how much was your season ticket this season?" Or look online?

Re: Season Tickets
 

If it was as easy as that we would have a lot more fans. I think the approach is "look how cheap a season ticket for Stanley is and you can pay by installments" which results in new fans.

Re: Season Tickets

Re: Season Tickets

Re: Season Tickets
 

Is that all they'll pay you to watch Rovers?:rolleyes:

Re: Season Tickets
 

what do you get for that.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Chicken feed?

Re: Season Tickets
 

They are a premiership club charging £110 more than us. Rovers a championship club charging £50 more than us. The quality of football is not much better than us. I have a complaint. I have as a loyal supporter already renewed my season ticket today, Now I think the club should reward such loyalty with a ticket for a free pie to be eaten before the end of the season. Just sayin.

Re: Season Tickets
 

This could turn into 'Pie-Gate'

Re: Season Tickets
 

Free pie with season ticket! What a media story that would make. Just think of the punning headlines it would generate. Go for it, Mr.Commercial Manager.

Re: Season Tickets
 

I'm not sure of the wisdom of such price hikes after a pretty mediocre season in the league, then calling it a price freeze.

I imagine the majority of fans buy early and these have faced 10.1% increase if adult and 12.6% increase if concession. The explanation that they needed the extra 87p per game makes me think it is either a bad excuse (if 1000 sales are hit how does this factor in?) or the club is desperate for cash compared to the last 4 seasons.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Chewbaca, can you tell me a time, ever, when Stanley were not desperate for cash?

Re: Season Tickets
 

I don't think the price rise is excessive. I have said previously our gates will not support the club and we desperately need to increase the home crowd, Last season we had a good run but a disappointing end. yet the overall crowd was not that great. Whatever the club does we need to have our input and make suggestions. We need as many people in the ground for atmosphere as well as finance. I think we need to treat visiting supporters as good as our own at least. Football should be a friendly experience and the battles kept to the pitch.

Re: Season Tickets
 

The truth is, £200 was way too cheap and like someone already said I'm more than happy to pay £19 extra to subsidise kids new prices!

You can't tell me £8.60 (Less than price of 3 pints these days) was just about right for League 2 football?...I'd pay that to watch Clitheroe!

Re: Season Tickets
 

too right Baldy. The price at Stanley is ludicrously cheap. In any case there is no choice - do we want to be in the league? Want a roof over our heads? Want the best manager in the division? All need paying for.

Re: Season Tickets
 

I can see the advertising campaign now 'If I don't eat a Hollands pie, I'll only be good enough to play for Accrington Stanley' . . . . . . . Oh no, wait a minute - I think something similar's already been done :D

P.s.. Other well known brands of pie are available

Re: Season Tickets
 

These were our season ticket prices for 2007/08

MAIN STAND
Before 5th May: Adult £276.00, Concession: £184.00
Normal price: Adult £310.50, Concession: £195.50

TERRACE
Before 5th May: Adult £239.20, Concession: £147.20
Normal price: Adult £269.10, Concession: £165.60

Re: Season Tickets
 

Blimey. No wonder we only get 1,045 for home games now. Those prices may have scared off a new wave of fans at exactly the best time to get new fans.

What did happen?

Re: Season Tickets
 

Think you got that the wrong way round AccyMad.
Shouldn't it read....'If I do eat a Hollands pie, I'll only be good enough to play for Accrington Stanley' :D

Re: Season Tickets
 

"If I don't play well I'll end up in a Holland's pie"

Re: Season Tickets
 

Nah they by passed meat years ago.:D

Re: Season Tickets
 

Time to concentrate on getting the u16 fans hooked! Although they won't be paying £20 now, we need to be thinking longer term, 5/10 years!

Was said in the pub on Saturday that when most of us on here was growing up Stanley wasn't even good enough to be on FIFA games on PlayStation/Xbox like we are now!

The kids of today arnt growing up with the "Poor little Stanley" who people Support as a 2nd team, Were a respectable football league club!!

The sooner we lose the "Little Stanley between Blackburn and Burnley" label the better!

Re: Season Tickets
 

Exactleeeeee Baldy. Unfortunately we cant afford to turn away anyone's money but I personally hate all this 2nd team nonsense. I'd personally rather have a 1000 Reds than 1500 liquorice allsorts. They dilute the atmosphere and contribute largely to the negativity.

Re: Season Tickets
 

The attitude of the Turkey there I'm afraid. And talking about christmas you've more chance of Santa Claus being real than 1000 hard core Stanley fans never mind the 2000 per week needed.

The trouble with football these days is the unrealistic expectation of fans and I mean all over not just here. There is far more things to do these days than turn up at the old style football grounds with poor facilities paying £20 or more a time.

I've reached the stage where I'm less inclined to put effort in going to the same old places and more inclined to go to the pub and watch games and have a bevvy. That doesn't mean I've stopped going, just got more choosier and I'd never have thought that even a few years ago. And I don't know what would bring the magic back other than playing a few more different teams and different grounds.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Deyaayess - it's weird reading this. I watched footy for 30 years before getting sick and tired of it.

Stanley are a total breath of fresh air. I can't imagine getting bored with them as they are everything I loved about watching Leeds - especially for the first 20 years. Young kids like David Batty breaking through. Loveable old donkeys like John Pearson, has beens like Mickey Thomas. The thrill of promotion, the risk of relegation, the dashed hopes of mid table mediocrity. Arguing with fellow fans who never rated Howard Wilkinson, loving Carlton Palmer who everyone else hated. Weird bond schemes to raise cash.... I never tired of it until Peter Ridsdale decided we'd be a European mega club.

I hope Stanley see me through the next 30 years.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Have to say i have never got sick of watching football live, even when i lived in Spain i did go watch n support Malaga, to me theres no comparison at all between TV,@ Live.

Re: Season Tickets
 

I've been watching football for over 30 years too and Accy for 12 or 13. It is great to start with but after a few years it's the same old teams at the same old grounds time after time and it's worse in Scotland because there are less teams in each league.

I would probably look at it differently if I lived just down the road from the ground but getting up at 7am and not getting home until after midnight takes the shine off it after working all week. I know some people do it and good luck to them but some weeks I just can't be bothered anymore.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Do not ever apologise mate, you do more miles/hours in one game than some do all season :)

Understand fully what you say about "being bothered", I cannot help but think that being so close, yet so far away last season has had an effect....

:) :) :)

Back to the thread, great value and I believe absolutely that 1000+ will be announced in August :)

Re: Season Tickets
 

Hope yer right joe, i have me doubts.

Re: Season Tickets
 

i,ve bigger doubts than you cashy. if its entertainment your after a lot of this season especially before christmas could be written off in the league. the games certainly have improved since then which have made me go to renew my season ticket in due course. the first part of the season was a good win against portsmouth, two lucky ones against doncaster and f.c.oyston and the rest totally forgettable. a lot who sit around me agree also.

Re: Season Tickets

my feeling on away games now for a similar reason. can afford to drive to the far outposts of the empire like exeter. when i did my ground hopping twenty odd years ago you could park anywhere near a ground, roll up and pay on the gate. now its a minefield that occasional fans have to go through just to get parked and enter a ground. used to go to other grounds near me but stopped doing that a couple of years ago and only watch stanley at home and nearish away games.

Re: Season Tickets
 

MH - I've enjoyed every match apart from Luton away which was pretty dull.
Even when we weren't scoring we played pretty well, were involved in tight games, had some bad luck/controversy of one form or another.
All the cup matches were special of course.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Have to say, most of time we were not scoring,we were still creating more than most oppositions, to me we aint played that poorly for most of this season,

Re: Season Tickets
 

Cardiff city season ticket for 16-21 yr old £99

Re: Season Tickets
 

And...?
At Stenhousemuir a season ticket is free for U16, but that has nowt to do with Stanley as well.

Re: Season Tickets
 

If we want younger fans I then we've got too compete with other clubs I know Cardiff isn't near but even Blackburn and burnley concession tickets are cheaper than ours any wonder they'd rather go there instead, over the years I've even been tempted to go down the road, if it was still the old owners I would of but if we want more fans in then we have to have better prices than them and at the moment we don't, tbh I can never see us getting 1000 season tickets sold

Re: Season Tickets
 

All well and good but the clubs yeh mention get far bigger gates than us,as do 90% of the football league, we have to exist, A.Holt whilst a great asset to Stanley, aint a bottomless pit.

Re: Season Tickets
 

'At Stenhousemuir a season ticket is free for U16, but that has nowt to do with Stanley as well.'

Similar situation to Stanley in some regards. They need to attract support when next door to 2 relative giants of Scottish football in Falkirk and The Shire and a short train ride away from the allure of the big City clubs.


Make an u-16 a fan and chances are you've a fan for life.

Re: Season Tickets
 

So has been the suggestion for the last 10 years.

It's a balancing act in the end - profit off them that come the odd game and snag those who may get hooked.

Last year had U12's for free with an adult season ticket - it'd be interesting to see how many of the U12's tickets survive this year now they have to be paid for.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Obviously, with average gates of 404, it's working for Stenhousemuir.
But maybe your right, it must hard being so close to those 'Giants' of Scottish football Falkirk and East Stirlingshire:rolleyes:

Re: Season Tickets
 

Thinking ahead...I'd like to see us offer u12/u18 season ticket for sale at Christmas or even a deposit!

Some people struggle what to get kids and if we manage to shift a few at Christmas we should have more chance of flogging them a kit or shirt at same time...

Re: Season Tickets
 

Difficult balancing act for the owners

Re: Season Tickets
 

Worth trying imho.

Re: Season Tickets
 

agree anything is worth trying and if it doesn,t come off you,ve lost nothing.

Re: Season Tickets
 

'But maybe your right, it must hard being so close to those 'Giants' of Scottish football Falkirk and East Stirlingshire.'

I did say relative giants. It is pretty similar tho on a smaller scale to our position sandwiched between Bburn and Burnley. How do you convince a Stenny local to watch the Warriors in the bottom division when you could go to watch Falkirk in the SPL or top end Championship given each club only a couple of miles apart.

I may have overegged the analogy with The Shire.

Re: Season Tickets
 

[QUOTE=SamF;1189438]So has been the suggestion for the last 10 years.

an ongoing topic every season is kids tickets. much harder for them to get hooked nowadays as the only thing you really get in the media is the premier league and then its the champions league. i imagine a lot of say 10 year olds will know more barcelona players than they do stanley ones if they dont come to the crown. then there,s a problem with them coming on their own or with mates.up to being 12 i used to go with my old man to games then with my mates. think a lot of parents wouldn,t allow their little dears to go to a game at that age nowadays so puts pressure on parents who have no interest in stanley. thank goodness i was from a football family and not one into ballet and the arts.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Given that Stanley probably get the same sort of % of population to the matches as your average town isn't the solution to increase the population of Accrington? Give people, say, a free library pass and bus travel for a year if they relocate ? How about getting all those Mexicans that Trump won't have to head for Lancashire instead? (Think of the wave that would have gone round the ground after Shay's beauty on Saturday. )Maybe put holes in all the condoms in vending machines?

Honestly. I don't know why I bother with you one dimensional thinkers.

Re: Season Tickets
 

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.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Flexi ticket was great, Worked well

Re: Season Tickets
 

Chris - there's no accounting for taste I'm afraid. Accrington, a run down old town with hard up people (so I'm told) has, on its doorstep the greatest value for money sporting attraction in the world. The history, the romance. David v Goliath. What more could you want for £9/week?

I think we are probably looking at the laws of diminishing returns trying too hard to attract fans in. Get the basics right, don't rip people off and keep king Coley at the helm. If the denizens of the town still prefer washing their cars, the lure of Accrington market or staying in watching ****e on telly then what can you do?

Re: Season Tickets
 

Over the past year there has been a recurring theme on this forum.........
What can we do to increase our gates?
There have been constructive ideas, clever ideas & bonkers ideas.
But, Gentlemen, allow me to tell you the answer to this question.............
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
Accrington is a town in terminal decline with a population who have a long history of apathy.
The apathy was already endemic when the original Stanley shuffled off their mortal coil back in 62 & it's still with us today.
We can come up with all the clever ideas we want, but it won't add another 50 to the gate.
At the end of the day, the club is a commercial business, one based in the entertainment sector.
What do people want when they look for entertainment? Excitement, thrills, escapism. Something to elevate them from their humdrum lives.
They get this in shedloads at the cinema or on their 42 inch HD TV's.
They can watch live European & Premiership football virtually seven days a week on television.
Film & TV producers know what people want & are experts at satisfying that demand.
We all know in our hearts that the only thing which will bring in the fans is SUCCESS!
Lincoln City are more successful now in the Conference than they ever were struggling in the football league, because they've found the magic recipe.
They have that special momentum which only comes from success and carries everyone along in their wake.
Until Stanley can recreate the form which gave us so much excitement last season, I'm afraid all our ideas are not worth a peppered steak.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Let's all just pack up and not bother anymore then!

the problem is you are right. i know a lot won,t like it but it,s completely true. people nowadays are only interested in success especially kids. 50 years ago people were happy to support their local club but with increased car ownership and a better road network this has been eroded. our problem is to increase our gates by ten per cent only means an extra 150 or so on the gate where we need another 500. without success it aint going to happen. can,t really compare lincoln to accrington though. without looking at a map i suppose their nearest rivels could be doncaster or scunthorpe unlike what stanley have to put up with.

Re: Season Tickets
 

No one's suggesting we should adopt this attitude.
I've been successful in convincing a friend to join me every home game who, in turn, occasionally brings members of his own family.
Does it make any difference to our overall gate - not one iota!
My point is the honeymoon period following Stanley's return to the football league has become a faded memory for most people.
Every season, with the exception of the last, has become largely a matter of survival.
As others have pointed out, Stanley have been reduced to their core support, which barely fluctuates.
The only time gates are increased is when we get the teams with a bigger away following, or the odd FA Cup game.
Only success on the field will make any difference to attendances (I only used non-league Lincoln to illustrate the point)
All this gnashing of teeth about our poor gates should be reserved for scoffing said peppered steak pie.

Re: Season Tickets
 

To ALL contributors to this thread, and the scores of similar threads ...

If I said that I was working on a plan to implement all the ideas ever mooted Would you join me?

If I said that I was working on a plan to co-ordinate a marketing campaign with the fans, Supporters Club, Historical Club (soon to be), Community Trust, Ultras and the Football Club, Would you join me?

If I said I was working on a plan to launch the biggest single drive for new fans that this club has EVER undertaken WOULD YOU JOIN ME?

I will be looking to form a small committee of like-minded DO'ERS, people who can think, discuss and initiate.

Further down the line I will need a SMALL ARMY of volunteers to help implement the various actions.

I wasnt going to say anything at all until full steam ahead was granted, so for that reason I wont go into full detail just yet. However, as the discussions at my end are beginning to gather pace, and this topic has reared its head again, it seems appropriate to make a beginning ...

The tagline will be FULL IMMERSION, we ALL need to get behind it and get into it.

Re: Season Tickets
 

You once also had a plan to keep a large potato pie all season and force someone to eat a slice of it at every game throughout the season...

Do you see these new plans being more or less successful than that one ended up? :p

Re: Season Tickets
 

Just a thought but what if free admission for all August League Games was offered to home fans? Maybe 2/3 games.

Massive pre publicity. (schools/workplaces/areas outside Accrington RV/R'dale) Hope that the team plays well, August sunshine, smell of freshly cut grass etc. Hopefully get a big gate/good atmosphere and get people into the habit of coming. Get details of non-Season ticket attendees and market season tickets/match day tickets to these people in hope they become regular fans.

Lost revenue from home fans would be say 400 walk-ons at £20 for three games=£24,000. To recoup this over full season would require additional season ticket sales of 109 (109 x £220=£23980) or additional walk-ons over season of 60 per game on average ((£24000/£20)/20games).
Basically if average gate for rest of games increased by 60 it would not lead to any lost revenue.

Fan base increased by 5% (60/1200).

Re: Season Tickets
 

Best of luck with it Maccawozgod. You seem a capable and knowledgable chap.
I'm intrigued by the soon to be historical club, since that's where I feel the Stanley "USP" is.
I suppose I have talked myself round to thinking that a successful team dwarfs everything with regard to increases in fan numbers. But even if you can add another 150 fans/game all things being equal then it helps financially and with the atmosphere inside the ground.

Actually, adding 150 would be a decent result?

Re: Season Tickets
 

I get the feeling I've already been coerced into helping when inebriated anyway. Count me in too Rob.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Went to watch Cremonese today. 3rd tier of Italian league system. Standard was a bit better than Stanley but wouldn't say it was as exciting. Stadium holds 20,000 but probably only about 4,000 on.

BUT it was 7 euros in. Great atmosphere - the fans never stopped singing and waving massive flags. and you could sup reasonably priced lager whilst watching the match.
It was brilliant. Fanzone was a crappy little hatch pumping out pints of beer at an amazing rate. All you needed for a cracking afternoon out.

I didn't have a pie.

It would be interesting to see the earnings and outgoings of a club in the Italian third tier. Or how they make money outside of the game to subside such prices. You pay £7 to watch Colne here!!

Re: Season Tickets
 

Seems Cremonese get an average of about 3,000 fans, some clubs in that division average only 200.

The ground holds 20,000 - really they are a Serie B club.

Gut reaction says they can't be professional footballers. I thought the standard was better than Stanley .... but that's before I witnessed tuesday night's epic performance!!!

Re: Season Tickets
 

easy for them with their wembley appearances, fa cup runs with beating chelsea away, in or around the play offs every season. stanley are a different proposition. don,t think we,d sell many more if we had there prices. need a promotion and a bit of regular success before we can do giveaway deals like them.

Re: Season Tickets
 

no chance. graham westley leading stanley out in the european cup final in 5 years time has more chance.

Re: Season Tickets
 

disagree

i know of a few people who had flexi tickets who have hardly been since they stopped them and put the prices up

Re: Season Tickets
 

Have to say i'm aware of a couple who come much less since they stopped flexis.

Re: Season Tickets
 

I would count myself in the same category. Having paid upfront was often the deciding factor more so these days. It was a simple scheme with little administration costs that suited those where a season ticket didn't

Re: Season Tickets
 

most clubs who dont sell out (tends to be everyone outside of man city, man utd, chelsea, arsenal, tottenham, liverpool and everton) offer some form of flexi ticket.

a few dont such as Leeds and west ham, but they have a decent following already or ground is small enough to fill (such as Bournemouth).

Re: Season Tickets
 

I have never seen other clubs offer something similar when looking at away prices. I expect if other clubs do it is a very small minority as opposed to 'most'.

If you said that most offer discounts for buying specific match tickets in advance I would be more inclined to agree, but that is the opposite of flexi.

Re: Season Tickets
 

Was the flexi ticket just a straight amount for x number of games giving a per match figure halfway between the season ticket and matchday price ?

Or was there a membership element as there is at Carlisle where it makes it so convoluted that last year they only sold 150 all season ?

Re: Season Tickets
 

It was £150 for 10 tickets which could be swapped for match tickets for any game and any number per game. If you bought it preseason you could sometimes get it for £135

Re: Season Tickets
 

i meant season ticket prices. totally agree on flexi tickets as not everyone can go everyweek for one reason or another.

Re: Season Tickets
 

But surely at £150 for 10 tickets ie £15 per game that just the same as a POTD Matchday ticket with a membership card ?

If you really wanted to commit your money at the start of the season surely you be better buying an early purchase season ticket and then let a mate use it for the games you dont want to do ?
