C'mon Stupot, that's not the case at all. "We are Cov City and we've never done enough" is the real reason. A season of success will bring back the missing thousands and the price really won't be an issue at all then.

It was still a valid comment, the Bradford tickets have never been above £199 in the last 7 or 8 years as far as I can see. Its took 7 or 8 years of being one of the cheapest (if not the cheapest) in the football league to achieve the sales they have this year.That say prices have gradually crept up since that division 4 price in 2007.
Not taken a 25% cut like they did this season.
They put a great offer on and got a 50% increase in season ticket sales. Whatever way you look at it.

I thought we were basing everything on price? When are we playing wigan in the championship?
Course I did,! I'm a mind readeryou know damn well i meant league one. just because you own this place dont be a class a prick.

Your assumption we would do the same is stupid.
Fans that are so great they only go when we are winning? How?Some of the opinions of some of our supporters towards other supporters is little short of a disgrace.
If Tim Fisher and Joy Sepalla get to meet the likes of some of you. No wonder they come away with crazy ideas about 12k stadiums.
This 'well we are Coventry and that is the mighty Bradford' !!!!! Crap just doesn't cut it.
Give your fans optimism and a cracking offer they can't refuse you will see fans from this proud City flying through the turn styles.
This is a great city with great fans.
We can achieve the same as Bradford.
I am very confident that with the right football some well long over due success attendances we rise significantly.

Surely they would all be there in the rain on a Tuesday against Burton?

So what makes the fans greater than any other team?Yes like every other club in the UK
Now it's dirt cheap and success, then it will be a free taxi from their doorstep, then a limo with a bar...I agree but haven't you just undermined your point that to sell more tickets we need to reduce the prices even further?

You convieniently missed the line above about giving the fans s cracking offer they can't refuse

Surely they would all be there in the rain on a Tuesday against Burton rather than only going if there was success?
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.
That's the same for all clubs Nick, but the main difference is that the majority of other clubs have a period in the last 40 years of some success. What have we had?
What were Chelsea's crowds in the 1980's . What would they be getting if they spent the next 30 years in the bottom 8 of the Premier league and then were relegated to League 1 ? 40,000, 20,000 ? I doubt it.

It is the same for every club it really annoys me. When you get these negative numpties running down their own city and fan base.
It isn't being negative, it is being realistic.
People will say the want tickets dirt cheap, then be the first to say we need to spend money on players or the club needs to invest in players.
So what makes our fans greater then? Surely great fans that stick by the club through thick and thin and don't just turn up depending who we play?
When people suggest it's different because it's Coventry City.
That is being negative.
We are no different to any other club. As rightly pointed out by others yoyr Chelsea's Sunderland's and Even Newcastles have gone through crowds dramatically lower than what they have today. When times were bad
You are suggesting we have great fans, but they will come when tickets are cheap and we have success? How?
Didn't the other big clubs that are in our league get decent attendances still when they were in League 1? Leicester, Man City etc

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 Barton that have done it.
I have said if we have a same pricing strategy as Brsdford we will get similar results.
We nearly already have the optimism because of TM.
I would argue we haven't got the football yet.
We don't match Bradford on the optimism stakes for obvious reasons.
Hence why ours would be 6k going up to 9k
As oppose to 13k going up to 16k
Please stop with the 40 years without success stuff. We have won a major trophy within the last 30 years. Less than 20 other teams have done the same.
