Blimey :eek: I wonder if Tony Bloom knew this when he put £93million into the project ? Perhaps you should warn him ??

Sorry for that bloomer, I will try to do better next time. :nono:

I agree with this.. and the club will have to make season tickets much more attractive compared to regular ticket prices (as most clubs with large stadiums in the lower reaches of the football pyramid have to). However, any former STH is going to be pretty well clued up on purchasing one-off...

D'oh!

I don't think there is any knead for a split-tin the camp over this one, hopefully we have wrapped it up now, it would be a pitta to keep going on and on about it.

There will be a deluge of publicity surrounding the opening of the new stadium, tickets, travel etc... special offers etc... I think you are making a MAHOOSIVE great mountain out of a tiny molehill. Anyway, it will come down to the product in the end. If the football is attractive, people...

exactly.... AND there will be a FLOOD of publicity as the stadium opens about ticketing arrangements, special offers etc...

It won't be. Get used to it.

or more simply, the ticket / credit card gizmo could be at the train station or the park & ride? (perhaps that limits options for bus users - but would cover a decent proportion of travel options). Isn't that what they are already talking about doing??

So it's not the ticketing process... it's the product (and the associated price) - including the less-than totally convenient travel restrictions. That's why I don't buy into this 'pay at the gate' argument... there are far more important issues to get right.

I understand only too well... however, I disagree with the basic premise. If people really want to come, the ticket purchase methods are not exactly rocket science in todays world. A website, a telephone, a ticket office in town... plus whatever the options to buy at park & ride or stations...

If you want to go to a match then those options mean it is quite simple to do so. If you can't be arsed... you don't really want to go in the first place. Perhaps the club would be better served by some advertising or promotional activities rather than chasing a few who "can't be arsed" ?
