Block bookings, say a book of 4 match tickets for £55. These could be used all in one day or spread out over 4 matches and it should allow you choose whether you can use the north or west stand.I also think reffy was right to suggest charging £15 across the board, £2 extra to pre book a seat.

I can't argue against a flat fee for North or West Stand, I'll still be on the terrace for as long as my legs will hold me, I don't choose to stand there to save £2, I choose to stand there becuase I enjoy the game more.
The question is, and pardon the pun, but would this put more bums on seats?

We've got to try the league match ticket book....the idea of Starbugs
As we dont know the game days yet for next season and as always the TV games we have no choice on, a match ticket would work out fine.
We have 14 teams next season in our league so more games also, so have a 5 match book with a small discount, and a ten match ticket book, make it flexible so you can use it all on one game if you and four mates, who dont normally go decide on a Friday night to go and watch Leigh instead of hitting the pubs.
Fev have had this or similar this season.
It help people with shifts who cant go every game.

Problem here is that the only people likely to buy a book of tickets are the ones who will attend anyway and normally pay per game. Offer a discount (which would be tiny) and we lose money.
Can't imagine many people who currently don't attend paying £50 or £60 upfront for a book of tickets. The idea is to get more watching - not to save money for the ones who already go.

The bottom line is that £16 / £18 is alot of money in the current climate and certainly too much for many people to afford on 80mins of rugby against not too glamorous opponents on a day that doesn't even suit them.

No 1 aim cost....4000 @ £8 is the same as 2000 @ £16 but a 4000 crowd would have so many advantages. The more that attend could make those that don't think they are missing something and then may want to become part of it themselves.
No 2 aim is to keep 'em coming back so the team have to entertain weekly and the matchday experience should be fun.
Then you look for ways to get extra £££'s from the ones who then attend eg raffles/sales.

May need to take a gamble but unless we do I cannot see us ever getting larger crowds.

Where did everybody come from when we played Leeds? It just might entice some of those to go to more matches if there was an incentive like I've already mentioned, "Block Bookings". Pre season of course,and maybe part way through the season.

They came because it was Leeds - simples.
They would if it was Saints, Pies, Wire etc - but not York, Keighley, Batley etc

In that case we should be awreet when we get int superleague.

As a supporter for over 65 years and still travelling from Clitheroe with my (almost) equally elderly mate, plus whoever else we can persuade from the Clitheroe Pies and Saints fans, I could find no arguement with putting up the concessions to £10.00, whichever stand one goes to. If it helps the club, so be it.

Jimmy mi owd mate , how are you ?Im a bit under the weather today , ive got a cold in a heatwave thats my luck .Good to see you still manage to get to games , and try to bring other fans too, good on yer .

As for Franks point about concessions , i heard a fair few Leythers complaining about the prices at York on Sunday , as it was then another £2.00p to sit down , making it £12.00p in all which isnt cheap ,im happy with the prices at the LSV as they are , and im a season ticket holder anyway , i want to get this season over first before worrying about next seasons prices .

Well if Leythers are complaining about the prices at York they won't be happy with paying the prices Non Relegation clubs charge.

Maybe if we ever do get back into the top league it won't bother the ones Charlie is referring to

And those fans who attended the Leeds match will not come again this year when they know that even if we win all remaining games, we will not be promoted and playing Leeds, Wigan or Saints next year.

They are well aware we will still be playing York, Keighley and Batley again regardless.

And crucially those meaningless games at £16 a chuck sadly only appeal to around 1,600 people (and falling)

They wouldn't turn up, even if the pinnacle of our ambitions (apparently ) is to get promoted just so we can play W1gan and Leeds in a league game. They would turn up for the GF just like the last time we was there. They will be there for Blackpoo. No doubt they will be there for our first GF for 8 years if we can hopefully make it. The 1600 to 2000 will be there to experience how/if we get there, but the big gamer fans will wait for the big games.

The Watcher has a simple way of getting extra income for the club, charge for car parking, even if its only £2.

Don'y they find enough to moan about already.

Go stand in the corner Mr Watcher and face the wall.
