Season ticket sales

I doubt it will be as high as £25 for season ticket holders more like £10/£15 for season ticket holders then £20 for non-season ticket holders.

 

Passed the 7,000 sales mark

 

7,316

 

So attendance could be less than 4,000 for matches

 

7316, good under the circumstances but does that mean 7316x£150 so just under £1.1 million. That is bound to impact the budget unless we still have sell on clause cash coming in.

 

It won't be 7316 x 150 they'll be a fair few u16s at 100 and u11s at 25

 

£125 I think for the 25yr

 

Doesn’t seem like the numbers stack up too well, bar a miracle, Rupp is gonna have to dip in his pocket.

 

or we don’t spend upto the cap

 

Might be just the essential RB where we’ve left a gap in the squad no’s

 

I think we will pass 10,000 after Sunday’s deadline which is very good when you may have to watch half the games on an I pad. There also only doing renewals so no new potential season ticket holders can sign up.

 

On the flip side, IF we get off to a good start and are up towards the top end of the table, once crowds are allowed back we could see an additional 4-7k paying full price to watch.
This will boost the coffers probably more than season ticket revenue would’ve brought.
How’s the time for Rupp to dig deep and back Stuart in the transfer market.

 

Snap..... I remember on previous years we've sold good numbers in the last few days from deadline

 

When is the deadline

 

Realistically, even ignoring the Covid restrictions and people who have lost their jobs or are uncertain about the future, after a couple of years of dreadful football, yet another transfer window that so far even Greg Abbot would describe as a shambles, and matches against Harrogate, Barrow, FGR and so on, how many new season ticket holders were we going to attract?
There’s hundreds, maybe thousands who have looked at the shite football, poor recruitment and said, feck it, I’ve not missed it, I’m not renewing. I don’t think it would have been as bad without Covid and people getting used to a Saturday not at the football, but the two combined have given the club a nightmare, low sales AND low prices. They’re stumped, can’t up the prices significantly without even more not renewing. That’s why despite their protestations I think they’re rubbing their hands at a salary cap.

 

Even if he was prepared to dig deep, Rupp is limited by the salary cap to digging quite shallow. I think someone worked out we've about 400k left before we reach the limit, so don't be expecting us to push the boat out.
