That one I agree has probably been done in different guises but at least it is grabbing the headlines.
The end of this season will be a water shed for so many Clubs in terms of what has happened right through the Leagues already this season as we have witnessed first hand.
You can argue that perhaps we are now better placed than most Clubs in being debt free but sooner or later this Club has to stand on it's own two feet, now whether that's through cup runs, selling players on or generating more Season Ticket or Matchday sales it has to happen.
With Rovers & Burnely both possibly staying in the Prem they are going to be looking as they have in the past at catching the footballing fans in East Lancashire along with ourselves, somehow this Club has to compete and continue to grow!
Some of that may happen automatically for ourselves through possibly play-offs or automatic promotion, but the Club has to have foresight and an initiative that will help keep what they already have and what they don't in terms of people coming through the turnstiles, the public of Hynburn have to know there is a football club in their midst.
Perhaps the Club could work with the fans in coming up with ideas either through a forum or a working party made up of The Supporters Club, ASSF & Ultras to help form a framework to take the Club forward.
It can't do any harm for the fans to have a genuine input

It makes perfect sense for one off normally small attended games to try to put bums on seats or feet on terraces, it brings in extra revenue, helps generates a better atmosphere and increases the chances of bringing new people into the Club.
It's a no brainer

Excellent idea and maybe a chance for Accy fans to reciprocate the support shown by Shakers fans to us earlier in the Season

Re: Bigger crowd
Just to bring this back to the thread, we have 2 FANtastic opportunities coming up in the games against Burton or Barnet, in which to offer some sort of deal/incentive to have a good Tuesday night crowd!!! Come on club listen!!!

Just bringing this one back, in the vain hope that somebody from the club might realise that we have 3 home games on the bounce and apart from the Saturday one, I do not think we will have massive crowds!!

Re: Bigger crowd
Tuesday nights game against Barnet - who will come on a skateboard! - sees us also in competition with:-
Tuesday, 30 March 2010
Uefa Champions League
Bayern Munich v Man Utd, QF, L1, 19:45 On Sky telly!!
Lyon v Bordeaux, QF, L1, 19:45
The Coca-Cola Football League Championship
Cardiff v Leicester, 19:45
Plymouth v Barnsley, 19:45
Watford v Crystal Palace, 19:45
Coca-Cola Football League One
Oldham v Brentford, 19:45
Coca-Cola Football League Two
Accrington Stanley v Barnet, 19:45
So it is really refreshing to see that the club have marketed this game, with thought of getting a good crowd down to The Crown, to help spur on the Team to 3 points
Sorry to the ones who did not realise, I AM BEING SARCASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
