Then you need to run the story from the perspective of the initiative being likely to fail. You're quite correct that the BBC can't be seen to be helping you advertise; however, what at first seems to be a negative take can in fact be used as a way of appealing to a mass audience. Trust me, it can work.

| Quote Mick Gledhill="Mick Gledhill"Just for the record I wasn't taking this thread off-topic.
I was stating a well known fact that while Bradford City struggle in the bottom four of League Two, there is scope that some of the disillusioned supporters will see our £60 offer as good value and take it up, if only to take away some of the pain from watching City.
A number of Bradford City supporters have already done this.'"
 Mick, yer heart is in the right place.....God knows where your head is!
So, let me get your pitch right, you want to lessen their pain from watching rubbish football at Valley Parade, by shipping them up to Odsal to watch rubbish Rugby League?
Not even Saatchi and Saatchi could sell that one!

Yeah but we only play Leeds there once a season, so it's not that much to put up with

| Quote Mick Gledhill on other thread="Mick Gledhill on other thread"Someone was telling something along the same lines last night that a sponsor could potentially make up the short fall and the club say we've done the 10K.
Even if it is 9k it's still not doom and gloom is it?'"
Think about it though.
Hypothetically, if we did have 9,000 pledges and the club turned round and gave em for £60 anyway, that still doesn't mean only 9,000 are gonna buy season tickets. There's undoubtedly people out there that don't want to promise (pledge) to buy one right now, but still may buy one later on. Numerous reasons for doing that including dodgy finances or just wanting to see how it goes first (I don't understand it, but it was proved at City that people do that).
We could end up having 9,000 pledges and still get 10,000 adult season ticket holders.

Good call and yes very true.
Only speaking to a current season ticket on the phone yesterday, when I asked him if he had made the pledge, he said no and that he was waiting for the Marquee signing to arrive.
Maybe now that Leon is on the back page of today's T&A he'll be straight on the phone to make that pledge.
