Likely that anything like that needs board approval....so wouldn’t happen before the board meeting. Unfortunate timing - with hindsight I’m sure it would all have been communicated a bit differently.
Yep.....club are a soft target for the offended, entitled and hard of thinking.......some of the language I saw was way OTT (worse than on here).
Anyway, vast majority seem to be ok with the outcome now so hopefully we can move on to celebrating beating Palace [emoji16]
He doesn’t really have an expectation at the moment as far as we heard.....he was very proud and happy about how the test event went and thought we’d done enough to prove it works. He’s also frustrated at the current inconsistency (Palladium audiences being allowed, and being able to watch live...
Agreed - apart from the bit in bold - I think PB indicated the revenue would be shared equally among clubs to avoid imbalances in the number of games subject to PPV.
I'll probably pay to watch it, but it's quite likely there could be 3-4 other STHs with me and I suspect that will be the case...
They're PB's numbers not mine, and I'd imagine he'd have a reasonable view of what's expected..............:shrug: He said they agreed on the basis of a) it allows us to be able to see games we otherwise (legally) couldn't and b) it delivers a small amount of revenue to the club
As regards an...
We'll see - PB seemed very clear on the expected revenue (it was a detailed reply in response to a specific question). The thought of neutrals paying for multiple games at 14.95 a pop seems pretty unlikely to me - add that to our STHs and members (and others) watching in groups etc (or simply...
I might have misheard or have poor recall, but sure that's what PB said last night - that PPV will only likely cover 1-1.5 games lost revenue (so yes, 1-1.25m)
Will be interested to see sub figures, but how many do you think would genuinely cough up 14.95 to watch us play, say, West Brom ? If...
You should have an email (with another to follow within 14 days) - it says :
SEASON-TICKET AND 1901 CLUB EXAMPLES
Further detailed information will be sent to season-ticket holders and 1901 Club members in the next 14 days, but as way of an example here some illustrations...
Won’t be anywhere near 200k for our games. 20k would be impressive.........
I think PB said last night that the total revenue for ppv will be split between all PL clubs (so the most popular -Leeds, obviously- don’t get any more than -say - Burnley). Can’t remember exactly what he said but...
They were always going to refund at some point...the timing has been hugely awkward though. Only a couple of weeks ago or so they were expecting us back, so half a ST collected with that in mind wasn’t unreasonable.
The comms have now been nuanced to reflect the ‘feedback’ for sure, but if...
