    Default do the club really want to get a big crowd? (plymouth offer)

    do the club really want to get a big crowd?

    today i e-mailed into brollys show and at end of my e-mail i put for the stay away fans to take advantage of the plymouth offer...

    there was a load of texts and calls in where no one had even heard about it and i had to text in letting them know what it was... how many extra bums on seats would that get knowing what a deal they would get.


    Coventry City will be holding a 'Family Fun Day' for the home game against Plymouth Argyle on March 29.

    Sky Blues supporters can purchase a family ticket, consisting of two adult and two child stand tickets, for the special price of £30 - which includes admission into the Ricoh Arena's Jaguar Exhibition Hall before the match.

    On purchasing your family ticket, you will also be offered the opportunity to buy a special 'Meal Deal' voucher for the exclusive price of £10, which allows you to purchase four pies, two beers and two coca colas.

    all that for £30 - well if you payed on gate for two adults and two children it would cost £72 so in all you save £42 straight away and its worth it even if you dont take two kids and just have it for two adults!!!

    utter madness that this has not been publicised at all other than on website!!!

    It's bizarre to think that they've come up with a great idea to get more people into the ground and then not marketed it properly? Maybe it was in the telegraph but I don't remember seeing it, and wouldn't have had a clue it was going on if I didn't go on to the website :roll:

    The club should stop fiddling about, and just lower the ticket prices full stop.

    They obviously realise that doing a cheaper deal on tickets gets a bigger crowd, so why don't they do it all the time ?

    The answer to your question is...No, the club do not want to fill the Ricoh.
    They would be happy with a ground where only 100 fans went to a game, but were charged £250,000 per ticket.

    I had an email about it - and most fans I know have - seems a bit of a non-story to me

    So much of a non-story you had to read and comment about it.

    I did read it but cant remember where, think it may have been a forum or something! Was not in the press or anything.

    under 19,000 with a half-arsed ticket promotion.

    Just lower the fucking ticket prices you stupid cunts.

    I think for the important games they should drop the prices to fill the ground out The more people they have in the ground, the more will get put on the cards and the more spent on food!

    I've argued that ticket prices need to be slashed endlessly on other forums. Not just at City, but at all football clubs.

    Can you imagine going to the cinema and standing at the ticket window, asking for two adult tickets to see Lord of the Rings, and being asked for £50 !!!!!

    Football is killing off it's fanbase.
    It's in danger of not being the game of the people, because the people can no longer afford to go.
