Yeah, not had an email, which is the one I'd have expected to get and there's nothing in spam, just checked. I have had emails in the past though so not sure what has happened there. Perhaps I've just missed it; I don't recall seeing one. How would you do it better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torres Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 1 minute ago, Owl Be Back said: Agreed; website shows next home game as Preston regarding ticket information, can't find anything on front/splash pages about the Bolton match. Only when I navigate further into the site, going to purchase actual tickets at the shop do I then see the Bolton match. Still doesn't advertise that they are £20. So, as a "casual supporter" I wouldn't go any further. That price has done nothing to draw me in because it hasn't been communicated effectively by the club. Really? wow that is shockingly bad!!! The club really is a shambles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owl Be Back Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) Chill out gents, no need to get riled with each other. 9 minutes ago, torres said: How would you do it better? Well the mailing/email list appears to not be working completely so I'd sort that out. In addition I'd make sure the next home game, with ticket prices, was front and centre on the splash screen of swfc.co.uk with a hot link to the ticket login and page so you could see it and get to it far easier. Those two would be my "quick wins". Beyond that you could look at putting a sticky post on twitter with a link to tickets and same on other social media (don't use Facebook so can't comment as to what that's like). Get some advertising on Owlstalk as well, perhaps, as well as other Wednesday related sites. Edited March 7, 2018 by Owl Be Back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Duran Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Not arguing with you Torres. You have the best interests at heart. The club just need to do a hell of a lot more.. Why the club don't use owlstalk to advertise is a strange one.. just look at the membership and amount who are online.. then this knowledge gets passed around.

@owlstalk Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Casual fans have stopped looking at going to games now given this season, the league position, the quality of football, and what the fans who are going are saying about it. The perception of football at SWFC is it's extortionate and fans can't afford to go so stop even looking and checking ticket prices because the perception has killed the curiousity They just hear how shocking everything is and go about their lives They don't check the official website - I'd say that's true of many more regular fans too The mailing list isn't going to the right people The adverts on social media tend to get posted once so if you miss it you're never going to see it Season ticket holders are stopping turning up, fans are walking out early, fans are calling casual fans all kinds of names and attacking them. Yet somehow 30,000 people are supposed to rock up on Saturday just to prove Chansiri (The chairman who's overseen all of the above) wrong about ticket prices? By buying a ticket for a substandard product in miserable times, in crappy weather, amongst booooing fans slating our own players Why would they bother? Answer is they won't. They'll just do something else instead. And yet Torres think's I'm the mad one I ask ya... Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can all get a little 'lost' in our own opinions and experiences, though. And contrary experience can both be valid at the same time as well. I think what this is really demonstrating, at least to me, is that if you're a commited/regular supporter in attendance then you're okay but those who have lapsed have no easy route back in as the club isn't proactive in its engagement with those fans and it's website(s) appear to make assumptions regarding availability of information that don't work for the casual or lapsed supporter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
