That now means 4 home games in 12 days!
That iis going to be a bit much on the wallets of some. It could therefore be a great opportunity for the club to offer up some kind of scheme, to reduce pricing for those attending all games (Free entry to St Patrick's Day Stalybridge game, if attending the previous three?).
Could the SLOs look into this with the club? It might be a tight turnaround to put something in place but worth looking into.
That’s all very well, I appreciate it may be a strain...but with little consideration for those of us who purchased a season ticket at full price. If it’s not enough to see targeted games being reduced for United and City season ticket holders..you are now advocating reductions based on the number of home games in quick succession.
When are loyal season ticket holders going to get their rewards for putting much needed cash in the coffers before the start of the season? Cash that will have been used to secure contracts of players we are all now enjoying watching.
Seems that season tickets holders are not considered when the discounts are being handed out. No offence, but I hope the Club don’t consider your proposal, if it even gets that far.
Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't season tickets discounted at the start of the season, and even more so if purchased as an 'early bird' offer? So, the answer to your question is; from the very outset and before the season has begun is when the season ticket holders are thought of and have already been considered on that front.
From what I can see, a season ticket for 23 games (plus friendlies) is £180 as opposed to £230 plus friendly admissions, so a 'saving' of at least £50. Please don't come back with, 'they are discounted because' I know exactly why they are discounted and the way business works.
That said, if something was looked at to increase crowds, in this short period of home game after home game, then I believe the club could do something for the season ticket holders too. A suggestion would be good, rather than just shooting down another's thoughts.
