Who deals with this aspect of advertising at the club?

why do you ask ?

I’d go one step further then advertising and hire a stall in the week running up to a home match in the Ridings. Have Daddy Cool there, a couple of players and have the stall sell tickets and a collection of merchandise.

According to the Ridings website, 250K visitors are attracted to the shopping centre every week. That’s a lot of people to target.

I’ll be honest and admit I’ve no idea of the costs but with the current climate I’m sure a deal could be done with the owners, or even trade off the hire for a little bit of free advertising at home matches.

I will say though it’s easy sitting behind a PC and theorising what could be done to boost crowds and in the real world there a many obstacles in the way, I would assume mainly financial. Also I have no idea if this has already been tried and was refused or did not produce the returns needed to make it viable.

I think there are retailers in the Ridings which would be willing to get involved if it could benefit both parties.

Nothing in the Ridings (or City Centre) this week either according to my mole (the wife). I know the Leeds game will sell itself but it's more than one game, it's product awareness too. Not suprising many of the kids in and around where I live know next to nothing about Trinity. Funny how "Rhino's" seem to trip easily off their tongues though. Sigh
