    GW46 - Where we should have V did finish this season

    Problem is, there is already a big divide, if you look at the bottom 4, they are well down on the "average" over those seasons so statistically, applying the same curve is not as accurate as it would imply. You would need to compare more accurately the state of the top 7 this time last year and...

    Ideas to help the Club

    And this is why we want the ideas, maybe fans could pitch in and assist if the club made a request, many teams where budgets are squeezed and resources tight have fans who help out on a variety of tasks but they need to ask. To date, I don't think the club has asked for anyone to help out. I...

    Ideas to help the Club

    The thread may degenerate into the weird, wonderful and the plain mad but if you could suggest one thing that could help improve the club (assuming SISU out is on many peoples list), what would it be? Maybe we could tweet a good list or get someone old fashioned to write to the club with them...

    Ticket Prices

    So basically, no-one has said its not affordable, it is all the other factors, this is important for the commercial department to understand, it can then address incentives, ticket pick up points, ease of purchase and the owners can hopefully support Robins et al to put a winning product on the...

    Ticket Prices

    I admire your dedication, the last few years traveling such distance to watch some of those games deserves free food and beer

    Ticket Prices

    Take sarnies with you and give £2 to someone in the cash queue, some people are so selfish.

    Ticket Prices

    Let's be honest on here, how many of us genuinely cannot afford to pay the advance day ticket price or it would have a severe impact on their life. I.e. Not paying bills, food, clothes etc I get the increase point and am completely against a disincentive for someone to pay more a few hours...

    Crewe: Player Ratings

    Kelly is massively under rated, had a brilliant game yesterday, his positioning, winning free kicks, passing and breaking up play is superb. Rod was also strong but thought they looked weak coming forward but he made it look very easy. Both my stand out players and MOM

    Ticket Prices

    I agree prices are too high but even if lowered to £20, don't expect and extra 2,000 to come and watch, they have their reasons not to go and money isn't the defining factor, it's a good excuse which eases their conscience for why they don't want to go any more.

    Ticket Prices

    They have a billionaire owner and pick up hundreds of millions from the premier league and we lowered our cup tickets for chedkatrade last year. Not sure what your point is really in this, completely different situations.

    Ticket Prices

    If the average ticket price paid is £22 for 1,000 fans due to match day packages, buying in advance again etc then to break even on lowering the price to £15 is 466 fans extra at that price. That ignores any other spin off benefits like food sales, programmes etc. At £25 a ticket then you are...

    Ticket Prices

    I agree Clint, wouldn't bother me at all. Would rather see one match a year where it's only a fiver for adults and a quid for kids.

    Three on the bounce

    Name them over the last 5 years please, people keep saying this and it's frankly rubbish, we havent been selling anyone at that time or when we did with Maddison, we kept him for the rest of the year so no impact on the playing squad.

    Ticket Prices

    It was £25 at Swindon. Other grounds are similar, doesn't make it right but the economics of it are not the influencing factor. People will pay to watch winning teams and quality football and what they perceive are "Reasonable owners". We, as a club, have given too many reasons for fans to not...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Crewe Alexandra Match Thread - Saturday 30th Sep

    Just like last night and breaking our hoodoo on winning away at Swindon and coming from behind, this is a game that sets the tone for the players spirit, attitude, skill and mostly important, belief. I worry about Dukes comments on the gaffers points target for the 3 games, he needs to re-issue...
