| Quote: kinleycat "I have forwarded a proposal to MC and JE regarding opening up the cats bar building (or parts there of) to the public during the week for hot and cold food (eat in and take away), drinks, meeting facilities etc etc.
I would be interested in peoples views on here of whether you think you would use it or not.
Price is key so everything will be keenly priced and we would look to be serving good quality teas and coffees, breakfasts and lunches.
This would be done in conjunction with supplying meals to the players and other club staff and visitors in the same facilities.
Doncaster Road is a busy route used by thousands of commuters each day going to and from wakefield to various other towns and cities and the M62 and A1/M1.
It seems to me that the club has missed an untapped market for years by not exploiting the existing facilities they have to cahs in on take away and eat in breakfasts and other hot and cold meals as people passed by .These people do use the redbeck and numerous other local outlets on a morning and cafes, pubs and restaurants at lunch time plus coffee shops such as Starbucks, Costa etc on a daily basis.
Knowing this industry extremely well i know there is a good profit to be made on such services so turning this venue into a public space where the public and supporters can utilise makes sense to me (at least).
I would be keen to here your feedback.'"
Sounds good to me. Particularly partial to a full english breakfast. |

Wife and daughter just signed up to Foxy Bingo. £100 into the Club's coffers, it's that easy.
If 2,000 of our fans join that's £100,000 to the Club.

On the club website you should get a pop up from foxy bingo, you need
to use the WTW code otherwise the club get zilch.
Or just google foxy. |

| Why don't we make a couple of the £10.00 prizes in the lottery a voucher for Foxy Bingo registration.
the club then gains £40.00 on each voucher. EVERYONES A WINNER.  |

Every week we do a shop at asda and the following day i go on their price comparison web site, inveriably getting a voucher because they were not the cheapest (£3.14 this week).
Could the club approach asda and get them to arrange a promo where i/ we could hand the voucher over and instead of it being knocked off the price of the next shop it could be sent as cash to wtw.
just a thought!

Not too sure of the cost implications or even if it is achievable...but could we not have a card system for all members that instead of giving us discounts at local businesses we pay the full price and the discount we receive e.g. 15% gets given to the club. A logistical nightmare possibly, but once the system was in-place could be a good earner.
Local businesses would not necessarily need to be on the website (could pay an additional fee to do so) but just have some form of label/display at checkout. I think most businesses in the city would sign up to a 5% or 10%!!!
Would be a challenge to set up but going forward it could be a good earner.

Can we please keep all good ideas and suggestions in this thread, otherwise it clogs up the front page and other important threads get lost.
All suggestions are being looked into by the club

It's a bit of a different spin on something we are already doing, selling memorabilia on Ebay donated by the fans to supporters trust. I bet we have some well cool stuff tucked away in fans lofts from back in the day. I would kill for an 80’s home Adidas strip.

How about this on ebay.
1 x framed signed match shirt from opening game.
1 x behind the scenes in matchday experience, including coaching from players and maybe even sit in at half time team talk to see what go's in in there.
Winner named in credits on match day dvd and gameday programme.
All a minimum cost to the club but im certain it would go for a bomb.

| Quote: 18th Man "Obvious one that I'd forgotten about but was mentioned previously... Foxy bingo night at the ground (do they still have the computer suite?) club pays our £10 sign up, we get £20 credit, club gets £50 (is it still that much) cash, how many sign ups would we need to sign Kay?'"
The Mrs - I mentioned this to Anthony, we had breif second of excitement using all the collection money (also mentioned elsewhere - problem being if Foxy got a whiff and checked the IP addresses they could get chucked off the scheme/offer) damn pity though - people need to do this themselves from home |
