Quote: vastman "Don’t know but I was a slightly annoyed to see the Mighty Trin being sold at the same time! Not exactly joined up thinking when it was meant to be a trial run of the TT, surely it could have waited till the other two friendlies for that publication. Defeated the object for me. Feel a bit down TBH as I paid for it all myself.

It would have been hard enough competing against the Lyne testimonial but against both was a real challenge. I think we will still have no idea whether it’s worth pursuing now.

Oh well you live and learn. As I say I don’t know the numbers and I have a meeting tomorrow. The club may be really happy, I don’t know. We will have to see at the Catalan game.
Fair points, there did seem to be a lot of things being sold.

It wasn't the best match day experience today, so I wouldn’t read too much into it. If you can iron out these issues I think you could be on to a winner with it.

We tried to get one but the guy was flogging one of the others. There maybe enough for the Feb game

You probably weren't as annoyed as me Vasty at the Mighty Trin being sold also, I paid ÂŁ2 for the damn thing, not even looking at it thinking it was the latest publication. Looks like they were trying to get rid of old stock (December) albeit at a reduced price. I feel a bit cheated!

Well it’s water under the bridge now, a lesson learned I hope. It wasn’t done on purpose. No point dwelling, I want TT to work so we keep moving forward.

Must admit, anyone who bought all three, kudos to you. I imagine the Reece brochure was at least a fiver? So that’s £8 on print alone!!

Absolutely correct, i called the guy over and was about to pay him, then I realised it was last month’s edition, here we are half way through this month and still no January edition. We can only hope that things improve on the media front, perhaps I’m being too critical and there’s a perfectly good reason for the constant late media service.

Same here. Bought it before I realised it was December's.
Lyne brochure was really good.
Never saw anyone selling Trinity Times though I saw people reading it.

Reece's brochure was a fiver but as it was a donation to Reece I didn't see that as a problem at all.
And to be honest was a really good read so well worth the price.

Just read the Trinity Times. Enjoyed reading it. Good quality glossy poster, ideal for getting player signatures. Will be buying it in future.

RANDOM & ANONYMOUS N K:



Made a contribution, rather than the face value, I know you've done the best way to produce it ( my son works in print ), the only small criticism I would have is, it's too big , me being a bit ocd about keeping these things in pristine condition, but that's just me. Other than that I really enjoyed it and would buy it again.
Credit to you, pity about the mix up.

The Reece brochure clearly wasn’t the issue, although TBF I’d not taken that on board. You’re bound to be selling a testimonial brochure at such a game so can’t complain on that one. In retrospect possibly the wrong friendly.

More the Mighty Trin, far more similar publication.

Three similar items on sale on sale at one go is a lot.

As I say it wasn’t deliberate and no point sulking just unfortunate when your aim is to try and work out a suitable print run.

Yeah, the size unfortunately is crucial from a cost perspective. To get the same info in a more traditional A5 format would take it to 16 pages and that would require stapling and at the quantities we are selling at that would make it well over a pound to get a return. It would effectively become the old programme that became uneconomical a few years back.

Also you'd lose the poster, or at least a poster of any worthwhile size, a major selling point imo.

It's a compromise but we are hoping at the price it is it will sell in reasonable quantity and thus make a decent return.

However things are fluid and I see no reason why at the end of the season we couldn't do a collectors special digest version at A5 size on higher grade paper to sell online. All 14 editions for say ÂŁ14.99. Be a great stocking filler that you could definitely keep pristine and I'm sure we could throw in some extra end of season extras, especially if its a good season.

Hope that explains.

I have posted something on the RWBA Group but I'll post an update here as well as it's part of the conversation.

We sold 125 copies (out of the print run of 150) which isn't bad considering the other things that were on sale yesterday and we only sold within the ground. The ideal plan would be to have volunteers outside the turnstiles but the volunteers that helped yesterday (including myself) were all in a Hospitality Box and that was open from 12:30pm. The Western Terrace also seemed quite empty at around 1:15pm (when I planned on sending people out) and everyone seemed to arrive really late on and close to kick off.

The remaining 25 copies are in the club shop today so if anyone is in and didn't get one then that's where you can pick one up from. This will give us an indication of how shop sales can be with this production as Daz seemed confident they would fly out at ÂŁ1 a copy.

Thats' fantastic all things considered, I can't thank you and your members enough.

First night nerves on my part icon_surprised.gifops: icon_cheers.gif

Also like to point out that obviously as a pre-season edition there wasn't much to report. As the season goes on the amount of good quality info will increase dramatically.

Couldn’t find a TT seller on Sunday, so I called at the shop this morning, there was about 5 left on the counter, if someone wants one, you need to get there soon.
