The club should get an announcement out this week for Season Tickets. 100% sure there would be an increase with the current feel good factor.

Agree.

Also, make them really cheap.

Could really recruit some numbers...

From SISU's perspective, Fisher is doing a good job. The balance sheet looks ok. He ain't going nowhere.

Would be a good time for some goodwill gesture from the owners though.

Perhaps they could set a minimum target to achieve and if achieved he gets the sack.

Should be putting out early bird tickets this week if they have any sense.
L2 prices and same price in all areas.
No messing with payment plan again.

Agree- I'm 99.9% sure I'm not renewing but decent pricing on a day of Sky Blue love that we're all feeling today, I might just might be stupid enough to part with my cash.......

Leave it til after relegation on Saturday and it'll be back to no ST til our owners are gone.

how long do you think the'feel good' factor will last ?
until mathematically relegated?
or we start selling half the team off this summer?

No idea. A few days? Maybe a week? Doesn't matter how long it lasts. My original post made reference to their currently being a feel good factor so they should cash in on that ASAP

or until people realise they might end sitting next to a miserable fuck like yourself!

In all seriousness, it will be amateurish if they don't do something to try and capitalise. And your right, the window of opportunity won't be open long before the reality of relegation sinks in.

Half the team needs to be sold off. That's why we're bottom of the league.

Maybe some peeps waiting to see what happens over the summer before they buy? remember last season many new season tickets buyers brought on the promise we would build on previous good season. They failed. So the feel good factor may not work. Hard to feel good playing in lowest league after relegation, don't you think?

the thing is, they can put an offer out there and if it doesn't get people buying then so be it, but if they don't try then they'll never know and they could be missing a trick.

Just interested how Sisu are going to sell season tickets. Maybe if we play in this final every season we might need a bigger ground with all the new feel good fans

Fair point. but you do need a good product to sell more. not sure we can say we r a good product just yet. I would 'feel good' if we were ever offered a promotion or two tho.

How can you be offered a promotion? No one said we are a good product. At the moment, every Coventry fan is on cloud nine. If they put out a deal on season tickets over the next couple of days I'm pretty sure the club would notice and increase in year on year figures vs. the same week last year and so on.

You're a bit different you mate.

Makes me laugh when some fans think there should be some guarantee of success when supporting a team.

Say if CCFC came out with a Paul Fletcher style five year Operation Premiership plan would you buy one then? What was that now? About 12 years ago....

Who knows what the squad will be like next season?

A lot of players are out of contract in July, some of the more valuable players still in contract might get sold off. Some (or their agents) might not be happy to go down to Div 4.

That is the harsh reality.

Absolutely. As I said Robins will know already who he wants to keep. It's a harsh reality as you say.

Got to be honest, after yesterday if someone put a buy now button on a monthly payment ST in front of me I'd bite. Feeling hopeful about the future under Robins.

I do like the idea of offering cheap season tickets before the reality of relegation kicks in.

well, season tickets were about 6.5k last year on a promise. already many fans not renewing because of relegation. so anyone who buys this week will be giddy with joy. in reality most fans are pissed off that City are playing fourth division football. get up to speed dude.

In reality other than gimmicks I'm not sure what they can do.
They could offer some free cup tickets for home games - work with the parking company to try and offer a deal with them but can they reduce prices? Probably not as I don't see yesterday having much impact.

But that's the point isn't it and one that has gone completely over your head. As other posters have also pointed out - based on their feelings at the moment they would purchase a season ticket should the option be there. The point is they're buying them...doesn't matter why or how....smart marketing would be to get it out ASAP based on this.

Get up to speed with basic business/marketing common sense.

You've completely missed the point. That's how you feel...based on the replies to this thread...people who share your opinion are outnumbered by those who would consider buying as we stand at the moment. But, you've got an axe to bear so whatever.
