Think I prefer Macca's plan in his first post to the re-hashed pie idea :D

Count me in Rob, sounds well worth a go & it's about time i got my teeth into something (& no Matt, that's not going back to the pie idea) :)

Best of luck with it Maccawozgod. You seem a capable and knowledgable chap.
I'm intrigued by the soon to be historical club, since that's where I feel the Stanley "USP" is.
I suppose I have talked myself round to thinking that a successful team dwarfs everything with regard to increases in fan numbers. But even if you can add another 150 fans/game all things being equal then it helps financially and with the atmosphere inside the ground.

Actually, adding 150 would be a decent result?

I get the feeling I've already been coerced into helping when inebriated anyway. Count me in too Rob.

Went to watch Cremonese today. 3rd tier of Italian league system. Standard was a bit better than Stanley but wouldn't say it was as exciting. Stadium holds 20,000 but probably only about 4,000 on.

BUT it was 7 euros in. Great atmosphere - the fans never stopped singing and waving massive flags. and you could sup reasonably priced lager whilst watching the match.
It was brilliant. Fanzone was a crappy little hatch pumping out pints of beer at an amazing rate. All you needed for a cracking afternoon out.

I didn't have a pie.

Must have been wonderful to dispense with the long-johns?

Re: Season Tickets
 

Those Bradford City tickets are incredibly cheap. £6.50/match!

I noticed that last season they had a £50 flex i card - which meant you could go to 5 matches for £10 each. That's a neat idea.

Here's a bit of a season ticket run down... don't think the researchers had a cup o tea at the Wham.

Re: Season Tickets
 

It would be interesting to see the earnings and outgoings of a club in the Italian third tier. Or how they make money outside of the game to subside such prices. You pay £7 to watch Colne here!!

Re: Season Tickets
 

Seems Cremonese get an average of about 3,000 fans, some clubs in that division average only 200.

The ground holds 20,000 - really they are a Serie B club.

Gut reaction says they can't be professional footballers. I thought the standard was better than Stanley .... but that's before I witnessed tuesday night's epic performance!!!

Re: Season Tickets
 

easy for them with their wembley appearances, fa cup runs with beating chelsea away, in or around the play offs every season. stanley are a different proposition. don,t think we,d sell many more if we had there prices. need a promotion and a bit of regular success before we can do giveaway deals like them.

:) Well handed over mine and my sons cash today for another season :)

Re: Season Tickets
 

Surprised given what hes doing for the club Andy Holt hasnt approached HBDC and suggested a scheme whereby they do a sponsorship whereby they put in a sum of money [ say 25k ]which then entitles every u16 resident in Hyndburn to either apply for a free season ticket or a matchday ticket at say just £2

Re: Season Tickets
 

no chance. graham westley leading stanley out in the european cup final in 5 years time has more chance.
