Tbf I agree with Gynn. We don't progress without not just the new fans but the day trippers too. Everyone welcome. Not everyone is as passionate as some of us some like an occasional game, others can't afford it all yhe time.

No superfan status we're all equal and all just as important to the cause helping us move forward and I can say that as someone who stood in the rain at Newport and went to FGR away for a midweek checkatrade game. At the end of the day it is the entertainment business and the product on and off the pitch being more entertaining will attract others who have a decision on where to spend their finite amount of funds available.

Spot on that man! We all love this club and I know I’ve fallen out of love at times or were skint. So I’m not one of the 500 immortals but weve needed everyone’s contribution however small to get this club of ours back to where it is now.

It’s a bit of a shock when they hit 13 as I discovered this season. Although £4 a match isn’t too bad really.

The increase in price is a minor hiccup compared to them turning in to a know all, gobby arse piece!

My god you’re not wrong. I’m currently being shouted at (annoying dad) for trying to extract him from his Xbox so that we can go to the match. Imagine if it was something he didn’t want to do. The joys of being a parent ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Brilliant effort. Breaking 11k is a big income for the club that’s certain every week. Maybe we can afford some better signings with the optimism.

Small correction, currently the club only gets 1 / 23rd of sales when the game played

That’s ridiculous. So what’s the benefit of ST sales to the club? Just guaranteed income. Ticketmaster seem to make out like bandits for very little work.

But why do TicketMaster keep it when it’s paid upfront? Seems nuts. They get an interest free loan for what?

I assume it must go in a special account - it used to be a protective move in case anything happens to the club or games do not get paid. The loan scheme might be different - don't know

One of the L2 500 doing a 200 mile round trip for every game.

If you can't support your team when it's at its lowest then you may as well not bother as far as I'm concerned.

Yep, bizarrely was my first season ticket that season. I had always probably done 15 games a season at home and a similar number away. I think part of me had done the math and realised it made more sense to just get a ST and miss the handful or so games than do what I was doing, another part wanted to support the club financially at a point where I never thought we would get to and a third part was probably worried about away ticket allocations at decreasingly smaller grounds. How long ago that feels now.

Club played a blinder this time around. I really thought the price would be too steep and we'd see a drop down in the amount sold but as soon as those prices came out I was in.

It's not much of a hike to be honest. They've increased by around £1k.

Judging by the backing in January it doesn’t really matter how many fans we get through the gates the budget will remain the same

We got that sales pitch last season then in jan bottled it,signings will come from a budget that’s gonna be effected by players leaving that’s after SISU take back their high interest on loans they give to the club for its running of course

So everyone bar you can figure out that pretty obvious fact then.

Pretty common theme.
