Quote: mickyb1234 "Back to this again, it's same discussion we had last year, membership is basically a way of spreading payments over 12 months, does it mean paying less than on the day over the season, if the answer is yes then who cares what they call it.'"

Michael,
Give the decline in the number of Season Ticket holders at the club, I believe that the way in which tickets are promoted and packaged is an important part of attracting more purchasers. Daftdad is perfectly within his rights, as a previous ST holder to inquire if anything is different from the first year at the Hive.
It may not suit your agenda of thinking everything at the club is brilliant, but the question of memberships, administration charges, off season monthly payments and the like are of interest to some of the remaining fans. After all, in the article that this very thread promotes it states that they want to attract no less fans than 2014......even more if they can. Pricing will play a part in this, because whilst the occasional fan will walk up and pay a score to watch us play Wigan, Sheffield isn't quite the same draw......and the same can be said for the number of members we manage to retain.

Cracking new website....Steve Devonshire, one of those so shoddily treated by both Hughes and his Lacky ,MacKay is responsible....shows what you can achieve with passionate and knowledgeable people in place....I fully expect more good things to come out of the club in the next few weeks. COYB!

Didn't I read somewhere that the 2013 average attendance was 2200? In which case you're trying to tell me nobody went to a game at the Hive ( I guess you're not far off but the number was never negative ).

Those who want to go will go, those that don't will whinge and find excuses to justify their position. Makes no odds to me whether you go or not and it's purely down to you as to whether you see one, two or twenty games. As long as you are happy with your decision that's all that matters.

I just like to know your decision was made on fact and not prejudice. At the moment I suspect it's the later, but hey it's your loss if you are missing games based on misinformation.

Looking at the financials for 2012 and based on the number 200 for last years "members", it's fair to say that the club has lost in the region of 1,100 "up front" purchasers. Whilst this isn't "last year", it is fair to say that we lost over a thousand ST holders because of the move to the Hive. I would not say many of these losses were because of the membership issue, more the "we're crap and I'm not going north to watch is get hammered" issues. icon_cool.gif
As for daftdads motives? Regardless of if it's his prejudice against "memberships" or not,the fact is he is not alone. I really hope they can get some fans back in 2015........I really enjoyed my first trip to the Hive and can only recommend that others who haven't bothered, do so this year coming. Tidy ground and perfect for the level we will be playing at.

The simple reason crowd numbers have dropped is because of the results on the pitch, you don't have to go into the whys and wherefores we all know simple fact people do not want to pay to watch any team lose.
Contrary to what you suggest gutters, the optimists on here are not suggesting everything in rosy in the broncos garden, I will say it again, we know it's pants, but what is the point in looking at the negative in every single thing.
For me I think next year could be interesting with some competitive rugby, the super 8 will throw up a surprise.
The draw of Doncaster compared to Wigan is a dilemma, but if we start winning, then folk will come back, not in massive numbers but people will come to watch a team that's winning
Sundays gonna cause some folk hurt, being totally selfish it means I will get to probably every home game, and get to do more community stuff on a Saturday.
Nope things ain't great, have never said it was, the club is still here tho!
As for season ticket or membership, might be wrong but I suspect daft dad would still have made the choice to be a walk up on the day fan irrelevant if way season ticket membership was done
But the nub of the matter, you can only look forward, harping on about the past will not change it.
Drone over.

I have historic LB data on attendances that blows that theory out of the water......yes, you lose fans, but not in the numbers we did!

We're nearly there Michael....if we could just get rid of Hughes then I'd start being more positive.

No it won't....but you keep on praying.....
Quote: mickyb1234 "The draw of Doncaster compared to Wigan is a dilemma, but if we start winning, then folk will come back, not in massive numbers but people will come to watch a team that's winning'"

I hope so, but building a marketing plan around a winning team has "form" at London Broncos"........in case you missed the meeting IT DOESNT FUCKIN9 WORK!
Quote: mickyb1234 "Sundays gonna cause some folk hurt, being totally selfish it means I will get to probably every home game, and get to do more community stuff on a Saturday.'"

I fly from Wellington to Auckland and back for Sunday Warriors games.......some people need to take 2 concrete pills and harden the hell up!
Quote: mickyb1234 "Nope things ain't great, have never said it was, the club is still here tho!'"

Maybe, but it's not the club I started following in 2002.
Quote: mickyb1234 "As for season ticket or membership, might be wrong but I suspect daft dad would still have made the choice to be a walk up on the day fan irrelevant if way season ticket membership was done '"

I believe you may, or may not be right.....

correct....but as long as people keep shaking his hand and thanking Hughes, neither will we learn from our mistakes either.

NEVER!
