| Confused. A friend who is not a season ticket holder is quoted £40 for entry to the game with legends lounge hospitality. I am a season ticket holder and was quoted £40 for Legends lounge hospitality. Does it make economic sense to buy a season ticket and still pay the same as a non season ticket holder for hospitality and more importantly what message is the club sending to it's fans. Seems they are biting the hand of the very few season ticket holders which feed it.

I'd ping Gus.Mackay@londonbroncosrl.com and ask him. I reckon he'll see the benefit in offering the upgrade to ST holders for a score.

| As a season ticket holder, the absence of any reduced price for me to enjoy this hospitality looked odd to me too. I'd be interested in any response from the Club.

| I would offer season ticket holders a token discount but surely season ticket holders aren't the target market for the hospiality packages...

| Apparently it was a huge success last year. I hardly met anyone who used it. Now the £10 in the Kings Bar with Graham's interviews and raffles was popular including visiting fans but that went at the beginning of last season!

Keen to see how the price hike to 20 notes hit casual walk-up attendances?
If you work on last years figures and take the 900 ST holders out of the 11 games played at the stoop, then 19,817 fans actually "paid at the gate" in 2012.....the increase will generate an additional 99k in revenue.......if attendances fall again by 8% as they have in his first 2 years, then he will still be able to cite " a huge increase in ticketed revenue"
The depressing thing is that less than 20,000 occasional fans botherd going to games at the Stoop in 2012........regardless of any emails asking back lapsed ST holders and adverts in the local papers, these 1,800 "floating" fans are the ones who should be targeted.

| The £40 includes the match ticket, which as a ST holder you would already have? If it was £20 for aST to upgrade I'd do it for a few matches

| I might be wrong here but I vaguely remember being told last season that ST holders paid £30 and others £40. I went in there when they did it at £30 for the Catalans game and, even though I had availed myself of quite a few liquid refreshments I'm sure a guy at my table said he'd only paid £20 as they got a tenner off.
I'd guess that you got through to someone new who doesnt know the score, or I dreamt it all.

| No Rascal it wasn't a dream. I was that guy and I think we did pay an extra £20 that day. We did it again later in the season against Warrington for £20.

| ahhh, glad it wasnt one of my occasional delusions!
Met a couple from down in Southampton at the Skolars-Broncos game, bloke was called George,cant remember the lady's name. Dont know if you know 'em but that's almost enough for a Broncos Solent Supporters Club!
ps - I remember us both reckoning the Northampton pro club wouldnt last long. How right we were!

| Gus kindly called me in reply to email i sent about a few issues i had, one being the hospitality.
At present no reductions for season ticket holders.
Gus advised if they make reductions they then make no money which makes exercise pointless. I too am a season ticket holder so was a little aggrieved as we already paid to get in. Then again club needs to try and make money and seems to be trying to target a new audience in that they offering season tickets for hospitality so should be commended for trying to get any new punters through the door.
Hazard a guess a football club would do exactly the same as offering a different product. i suppose i may do once just to treat myself, failing that hospitality at the webb ellis looking good
Gus did say they may review next season. If club were to offer reduction, i think a tenner would be fair as early adopter season tickets entrance just shy of £11.
Wonder if they will still do their own pies in the bar like last year, far better than the expensive food from burger vans in the ground. Yes i forgot to ask Doh !!!

yeah.....speaks volumes for the "professionalism" of our CEO
Floundering is this weeks buzz word when describing exactly how out of his depth this guy is
