Maybe the first season but this is their third season under fan ownership. The first two were dismal failures, both seasons favourites for promotion and nowhere close. In fact last season until they sacked their manager they were in very real danger of going down. Yet their season ticket...

England are all over the shop here. Will be lucky to get through to stumps without losing more wickets.

I've mentioned this before but Pompey had a very comparable season to ours last years and have more expensive season tickets to us. Despite this with a smaller catchment area they are on course to increase their season ticket sales to over 11K. It must be the big name signings like Doyle and...

The way he's mentioning him so often I wonder if he's been told there's a decent chance of him being offered to us? Its not like Samuel is going to be reading the CT every day and getting excited that's he's being bigged up.

And predictably its taken 2 balls for England to lose their first wicket :facepalm:

But you've spent the whole thread suggesting that further reductions in pricing would lead to a large increase in attendance. Now you're saying we also need good football and success. I would suggest that if and when we get good football and success the fans will turn up without a price reduction.

I agree but haven't you just undermined your point that to sell more tickets we need to reduce the prices even further?

Early 90s when I started going to away games regularly you could just turn up at the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal and pay on the gate.

Its not like there isn't plenty of things that have done to moan at them about - no need to make up more things!

Can be preordered, released 2 weeks today I think.

Wish they'd bring this in for football. Automatic yellow card for anyone but the captain who speaks to the ref. Would some calm the histrionics down.

Surprised we're not bottom to be honest.

He should get on periscope and stream the game!

This is an odd argument. We've already dropped season ticket prices significantly and haven't seen a large increase in sales. What makes anyone think that a further reduction would suddenly have people rushing to buy?

The early bird is to encourage people to purchase early, in part to ensure the club has money coming in over the summer when there are no matches. That's why all clubs do the same thing. If they stayed the same price a lot of people would wait until the last minute so as well as not having any...

7:30 kick off and there's no tickets just pay on the gate £10 adults / £5 concessions.

Only tonight and next week to go. There's talk of it coming back for a second season as its done good ratings however they have promised it won't end on a cliffhanger and will still be a self contained mini-series. Not sure how they'd make more, its based on a series of 3 books but there's no...

Looks like Australia could happily bat for a couple of days. Lets hope if they do we manage the same and play out the draw. With England you always have the fear that it will suddenly stop being a good batting track when we get in!

The question is will people still buy them? If they do they you can argue the owners have just maximised income, supply & demand and all that. If the grounds half empty and total ticket revenues are down, and lower crowds would mean other revenues drop, then the owners will rightly have a lot of...
