Quote: Halfdan of t'wide embrace "There does seem to be a plan for community fan base building - whether it's a good one is not yet clear.

To be fair experience at other clubs shows this work is invariably slow burn in terms of generating a support base. I think it made sense to go big on Dons fans first. It certainly won't make sense if it becomes clear attracting Dons fans was the only plan.'"

Yes, I'm on board with everything you say there and little is gained by going all in immediately.

There is also the Community side which I know nothing about. I think orangeman explained there were about 600 given free entry for Widnes, so that is already a second route that should hopefully generate more future business.

I'd like to a solid 1.2K/1.4K attendance on Sunday plus some improved Broncos presence in the ground, especially a programme/leaflet or similar with player info, basic rules and a bit of info/interviews about the club.

Easy to put together.
Simply trawl the web for broncos stories from the last week, get a face to face with Coleman, team sheets, rules of the game, competition.....local high street printer will run off 500 for about £2 each..+ set up. Sell them.......or better still, give them away until we can arrange a better quality.
Club shop. Surely a pop up marquee can be manned by volunteers?
I'm too long in the tooth to be going over this again, but nothing the club needs to do has to cost loads, but it takes man hours.....step one is build bridges with the LBSA.

500 A5 proggies should cost much less than that. Stress-freeprint.co.uk do 500 full colour 24 page A5 proggies for £342.09 + P&P.

There's plenty of firms specialising in non league football proggies so you may find cheaper out there.

Just a note for the marketing department who have been giving out free tickets.How about this idea for good publicity to get a crowd in? 205,000 NHS staff in London with many not paid well.How about offering them discounted tickets which could get bums on seats and offer good publicity for the club as well.A bit late for doing it for this weekends game but maybe a thought for the next game.
They might not come back but it is better than an empty seat and can also claw some money back from food and drink.

They could start with staff of St George's which is close to the ground.

St George's is a university hospital with departments scattered across the region. The NHS states 6,000 staff.
I'd go as far as to put this logo on our shirt and offer 1 quid tickets to all NHS staff for the entire season, with kids free.....I'd have Buck and Dusty visit Paediatric wards.......

Note to club. You've haemorrhaged cash for decades, why not do it with a semblance of a possibility of a ROI!

Don't do it as a one off. Offer reduced rates to key targets. Armed forces, blue light, NHS etc. The key point now is to get people in to create a good vibe. Others then follow paying £22.

Exactly - it's not difficult is it. You could even add residents of the borough of Merton.
So over to you Mr Hughes....................

To my mind, at this time we would be better off with two people paying eleven pounds than one paying twenty two.

Yep, the aim at this point should be to get as many potential new fans through the door as possible.

AFC will expect a good crowd Saturday for the visit of Sunderland.
The club should be asking volunteers to be handing out flyers/offers on the concourse all day.
But hey....they've promoted cheap tickets to the members and those deemed worthy on social media who have kids and announced a KO time, so its all good a014.gif d040.gif
Looking like 1000 tops with a good chunk of freebies/discounts.....no doubt the search for the next new home will begin in earnest soon
