The club has done pretty well to limit the SUFC allocation (more Wednesday fans in the ground), maximise the revenue (although I still despise the ticket pricing personally) and still sell out. Gonna be a heck of a pay day- sell out crowd at those prices, plus the Sky money...just a shame the commercial stuff is a joke and we're still trying to flog last season's shirts at £55 a pop! missed opportunity yet again on that front. They or rather we are not trying to sell last seasons shirts at any price. If you want one, like really want one you can have one for £55 but trying ? No ! The 16/17 shirt will be available at a huge discount in the new year; But only when and if the 17/18 shirt has had a good run on the shop floor.

Would not hurt to knock a bit off them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in the upper tier Tuesday night game season before last , loads of people stood in gangways and it took 15 ,20 minutes to get out at the end.Accident waiting to happen and not very nice for kids.

Hmmm. I doubt it would impact that much. Certainly would not have done has they had them on reduced price from May time. Although that would probably make the shop look empty as we waited for the new kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just what I was thinking. It's very disappointing that this still hasn't sold out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archieswfc Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 (edited) Everyone who wants one has had enough time to get one by now. I'd be surprised if it sells out from here. Edited September 19, 2017 by archieswfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mkowl Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 If it doesn't what is the problem. I suspect many won't pay the price, many won't want to go if there is a perceived risk of trouble and it's on Sky so a lot that would travel from London / South East or elsewhere will go to the pub instead.

Didn't say it was a problem mate it'd just be nice if it sold out, especially as it's a reduced capacity and the country will be watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
