Price of Boxes announced


Recommended Posts

The prices rises for next season are horrific. Especially on the back of the worst home form for at least 20 years plus.... which considering our history takes some beating...... 

 

There HAS to be massive spending on players to even remotely justify those sort of prices.......

That's £147/dinner.

 

£150 a head is what fiscers baslow hall is, including drinks..... 

 

Having experienced SWFC catering in the "exec" area.... Its hardly a £15 a head meal never mind £150. 

 

Infact I'd say weatherspoons do better food than wednesdays catering.

Depends if your Number One Customer is a United fan

 

Even then, they would probably want to give it a miss.  lol

SERIOUSLY, if you didn't have a box last term, or were plannin' to get one this...

i can't really see it botherin' you...

yes prices ARE going up big style...

season tickets, half season tickets, and on the day gate prices are going to have to go up to fund this REALISTIC shot at the premier...

you can't expect chansiri to fund the whole venture, and...

with our floating support wycombe/hartlepool (play off) the vast prices MAY mean YOU have to go less for the amount of money you want to spend...

BUT IF we're playing TOP OF THE TABLE FOOTBALL then it's likely someone who didn't go to the last game will take you place...

22,000@ £32/33 average???

as a football fan, you'll not like the look of it, BUT as a businessman chansiri will...

We're football fans on here - it's not the flipping FT forum. Big price rises stink. Full stop.

Maybe DC's "family" will buy the boxes up. Increased revenue for the club, and another way round FFP.

 

Turn them into freezer units for storing tuna?  Eh?

It'll go through the firm anyway, tax dodge

 

You have to be making fairly sizeable profits to need a £40k tax dodge

 

Additionally not all the money can be used to avoid tax anyway. There are rules on entertaining and corporate stuff these days

I'm thinking just the same.

If we sell all the higher priced exec boxes (even if it is to his "family") maybe we can justify higher shirt sponsorship income and ground naming rights. We need to increase commercial income, this maybe just one way of increasing our "base" level somewhat.

If they are all left empty though.......

Tax dodge were the wrong words but you do get what I'm saying, didn't realise they'd tighten things up

This goes back to what I was saying yesterday.

 

We are penalising our loyal supporters - at all levels it seems - the ones who have stood by the club through thin and thin

With 15,000 seats regularly empty in the ground, and other possibilities available to us for corporate entertainment (such as those opportunities for making more of the Grandstand for example) - we should be much more imaginative in attracting NEW people to the ground - rather than just demanding the 20k who have kept the club going the last few years up their own ante - and pay much more for the same.
