| Okay...I've got my beer (run out of Champagne - bugger ), and there's naff all on the telly as usual, so, to the 50 or so users, and 136 guests currently browsing this forum....how are we going to bring back the stay-away fans ???
Personally I think we should have a big push on the woeful season ticket sales. At the shareholders meeting the other week, James Elston told us that we had only sold 600 season tickets, whereas HKR had sold 6000 !!.
Therein lies the root of our problem - we 'aint puttin' bums on seats (or feet on the terracin'), so why not slash the price of season tickets ??.
Yes, there will be us die-hard fans who have already paid full whack (it cost me over £400 to renew ours), but we are not the problem. The problem is with the "armchair fans" and the ones who have turned away from the club over the past few years. We have to give them some incentive to return, and I believe the biggest single stumbling block is the admission price....slash the season ticket prices to say £100 for adults, £50 for OAP's and £20 for kids, and then reduce match day admission to £10 adults, £8 OAP's, and £5 kids.
Then make the whole match day experience a day to remember, with improved entertainment, hospitality, etc etc, along with 110% effort from the players (we ask nothing more than commitment to the cause), and hopefully the crowds will come flooding back...we may be going out of Superleague, but let's go out with a bang and not a whimper, and show them what they are going to miss !!!!!

| Its the last season at Belle Vue, we all need to pull together and support the club. Win, loose, or draw, lets get behind the lads and up the attendances. Attendances and gate receipts are key measurements when it comes to licensing applications, so lets do all we can to help!

| Big push on the kids. In the past i have been disgusted when I have had to pay for my 4 year old to attend a game, that po;icy should be the first to go.
Bags of free tickets to the schools.
If you drop a division you would hope these kids would get the bug this year and get behind hopefully a strong NL1 team in a new stadium to be the paying adults for a return to SL in 2015.

To be honest though you should think yourself lucky that they are being honoured!
I think £15 for adult entry's fair.
Roll on the first home game!

| I reckon we'll see a lot of changes but we may need to give AG a little time and we all need to remember that we still need the cash to run the club.
For me the club shop should be sold out before KO come the Salford game, statement from the fans to AG before we expect too much back, he's done his bit lets show him we will do ours.
Match day prices and juniors all need looking at.

| I hope the club honour those season tickets already purchased which I am sure they will.
I then hope the club look to promote season tickets and look to get as many local folk through the turn stiles as possible this season.
Even if it means kicking them out cheap to promote the club and the game.
Time for the club to promote from within and look to promote the game within the local area for the long term interests of the club and the game at heart......

| I heard somewhere that the SL sets prices, hard to believe if thats true. Or is it that they set the prices for cup games in the later rounds only?

| In a joint statement last Friday AG and James Elston, stated that all memberships, season tickets and sponsorships would be honoured. I can't see them backtracking on this.

| The salford games the best oppprtunity to set off on the right foot. Let people in for next to nothin ( or even nothing ) if mr glover could foot the bill. Coupled with a big pre match rallying call from the man himself, get it advertised everywhere for the next two weeks. Let the stay aways have something to ponder and rally the troops
