...going to the AMEX tonight re: 1901 club?

The club are obviously trying to get local businesses involved. My Nan owns a newsagents, and received a letter inviting her to go along tonight, see a presentation etc about the 1901 club and what it offers, and then a viewing of the stadium.

She can't go so I am going instead (as the shops Manager - which is pretty much what I am when I'm home from uni for summer) will be the first time I've seen the beauty that is our new stadium other than in photos and from driving past it. Just a shame I don't have a decent camera, so phone pics will have to do if I can get any!

I doubt anyone else will be going, these are personal, one-to-one high pressure sales sessions.

Take your chequebook and be prepared for a merciless battering.

Well I went yesterday and it was anything but merciless battering or high pressure selling. Far from it. An informative sales video presented by Des Lynam, followed by a chat about the 1901, followed by a look at the stadium.

There was absolutely no pressure at all. These seats have sold themselves and there are not many left. I've not gone for it as I have 2 small children who I'll probably take into the family section. The salesman actually said that would probably be better for me and that was that.

Go to see the stadium, have a cup of tea, hear what's on offer. They have exceeded all their sales targets so it was very relaxed.

note also; you can reserve a seat there and then, but don't have to sign anything. They give you 5 days grace to really think about it before signing anything at all. Far from unscrupulous selling practices in my opinion!

Sounds good to me. That's kind of what I was imagining it was going to be like. Doesn't surprise me at all that they haven't had to make a huge effort to push people into buying the seats! Can't wait to see the stadium from the inside though

Cheers

I was actually a bit disappointed with the amount of stadium I actually saw. I got taken to an access point right near it but we were not allowed any closer on H&S grounds. Good to see it close up, but would have liked to have gone in properly.
