    Imagine getting the football bug from what has been a fantastic world cup and buying a Bradford City season ticket on the back of it. I can imagine the advertising campaign in a few years time, "Were you sold a Bradford City season ticket on the back of the 2018 world cup? Then Direct Redress can get you a full refund if you were sold a ticket against the trades description act."

    Over 14,000 sold, not bad given the current grumblings

    Not if you're employing rational thought - but it's football, and it's a bit of an addiction :cool:

    It's been a long, hot couple of weeks of World Cup dreams - if the football bug bites, it doesn't really matter what the state of play is... does it?

    Can’t complain at that, supporters have had plenty of time to get a season ticket by now at the cheap price. This is cheap enough for any still thinking about it.

    Got to agree with your view. I think £10 a game is a very reasonable price for 23 matches. More than that and people have to start to think about the price. Not sure but setting the price at that figure instead of the current £169, would if 10,000 paid it, generate an additional £610,000. If the club pledged to put the difference into the playing budget, it could provide a significant boost, perhaps enough to make a serious push for promotion.

    No way to tell for sure, many could have been Flexi and cheap child tickets/ plus donated tickets which haven't been pushed this season. That with the price increase across the board, and a poor season all the factors always made this number likely.

    In hindsight they should have increased last season, whilst the potential championship carrot was there, too late now.

    He has a point though, some banging on about that selling 15k ST's is good, totally ignores the fact that the business has lost 20% of it's customer base in one trading year, that is pretty catastrophic! It's much easier to lose a (contracted) customer than attract one.

    Considering the freefall we were in last season, the vast majority still back the club regardless of what Edin is up to. 14,000 season tickets is still a good figure.

    Can't grumble at that - £230 - £10 a game.

    Yes but are we going to develop these eggs and sell them on?

    Maybe a couple of signings may give it a boost but if we get off to a bad start i fear alot more gaps will appear in the crowd.

    I brought this up some time ago but got pretty negative responses. Some along the lines of 'Bradford is too poor to pay increased prices'
