I think that might blow a hole in some of the business models on here that the cheaper the ticket the bigger the crowd
advertising only on the website (which will appeal only to those who use it), advertising only as must pay online by 5pm monday - but hold on maybe not, advertising via leaflet poster for only a couple of days and then only in selected premises of Schultz's choice, is hardly the way to push cheap tickets is it?
I am the biggest (and possibly only) advocator of permanent £5 tickets - but they'd have to be publicised in a proper (and professional
) manner and be just what I said - permanent.1st reason - it would give Ilyas a real indication of whether it is worth spending ten million of his own money on a new stadium or one million redeveloping what we have.
2nd - as a permanent price, for kids, adults, oldies, grant grabbers and everyone in between it is easy off the tongue, easy to remember and cannot be argued with as the most value for money ticket in the country.
3rd - Stanley have a ridiculous amount of bridges to re-build in Accrington and its surounds, marketed as a "finally giving something back to the community" its a no brainer winner.
but as I've said all along, on its own it wouldn't be that much of a winner (but I still believe it would be to some extent), but would need to be as part of a wider push on all fronts. Sadly the club as it stands would be in no position to do that (see 1st paragraph as to why).

ah that explains it then, I didn't even know he had taken on the marketing role
well i might have been a bit hasty there, but i would guess it falls under his jurisdiction via the "go put these posters up in the places that support the gold bond" example being that the newsagents on and Grey Horse on Whalley Road had them, but the Oaklea didnt
well you'd have thought so.
who dropped your leaflets off?
who dropped your leaflets off?
Mick did, but it wasn't a case of just dropping in with them, we were asked if we could display them during a conversation about something else.
If they were delivered on the Gold Bond round wouldn't that be logical ? Did anybody else get out and about with them ?
For what it's worth people did actually notice them, as I posted earlier we had a few enquiries. Maybe a lesson to be learned ?
indeed. Your right it would make sense to deliver them whilst out and about on the Gold Bond route - but also there are many other places that would possibly take them (like yourselves and the Oaklea) who just dont bother doing the Gold Bond. There are many things that could be done, regarding advertising games, that aren't. Some cost money and some dont. But until this club gets its thumb out of its arse and starts to see that the world doesn't owe it anything and you have to work and earn things, then it wont get anywhere with half arsed promotions like tonight.
from far away notts well done dave and without getting too precious are there not other people around accy that could do the same
A pretty poor first half followed by a good second half performance which in turn lifted the crowd.
A good three points
A big well done to players, management & staff for keeping it moving forward in what has been difficult circumstances
Didn't see the setup for the selling of merchandise in the main stand a simple yet a good idea and hopefully a bit of a income generator for the Club.

"A good second half performance which in turn lifted the crowd".
Just a quick note re some of the 'so called fans' near the dugouts.
3 nil up, playing some good passing football and still you have a group of 'Duds'
abusing JC & JB about way we are playing' (also 1 or 2 from the freeloaders box.
Oops sorry meant Directors Box).
Perhaps just letting 'anyone' in for a fiver, not such a good idea.

Pathetic. A stirring performance from the Reds last night with 5 or 6 candidates for man of the match. Gornell for me, for a non stop show of aggression. I haven't seen him rough up the defenders so much before. He seems to be growing physically match by match and is becoming a real handful. Good to see Deano getting forward and blasting a shot into the goalie which was too hot to handle. lets hope he does it more often. Very happy with our progress this season!

As the directors don't sit there is that where the match sponsors sit ?
In which case they would be freeloaders at the council tax payers expense
His work rate was exceptional. Unlucky with some of the offside decisions in the second half too, I was sat in line with a few of them and they were definately wrong. Deserved a goal
