wednesdaylander Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 What a great idea this was. Been today and to 4 of the previous ones. It is one of the best things Wednesday have ever done. OK, it might not be to everyone's taste, but how can you not smile when you see so many families enjoying a day in the sunshine, with the chairman, manager, and players engaging with the fans. To see so many Wednesdayites having fun is a joy. I honestly cant believe other clubs haven't latched on to it and copied it. The feel good factor is immense and I'm raring for the season to start now. Sorry, Mr Jennings, but WAWAW belongs to ALL of us, not you. UTO ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite agree, does anyone know if other clubs do anything similar? Seems a win win idea to me, brings the fans and the club closer (Those kids will remember playing against the players for the rest of their lives) and I would guess that it might not be a money spinner but wouldn't be a big money loser either. Great publicity and a lifetime memories. I bet Derby have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anus Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Aaand back in the room! Just me and the little one went today, and we had a great day. In fairness she was more about the rides today. Last year we all had to endure sunstroke and third degree burns to meet the player's, and today it was one look at the queue and stuff that!! But it didn't detract, and I start to get the tingle in my tum that the forever of the off season is nearly over!! For the record, I think it's a great the club puts it on.

Orlando_Trustful Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Thanks to all who joined in the cottaging fun near the bowling green club. A splendid hour or two had by all. The only negative was all the goths lingering around partaking in illegal substances. It is just not on at a family event. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ante's Bubbly Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Not an event for killjoys that cannot appreciate the subtle brilliance of Morris Rings. We went along and loved it. Nice one SWFC, have a great season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great publicity and a lifetime memories. I bet Derby have one. Great idea, but it’s a huge opportunity missed for extra revenue Having this event and not having both shirts available for purchase is frustrating at best Especially as the club know how popular the event is with families Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Yep, the shirts need to be on sale for this event. Thousands of fans in one place with money ready to spend. I don't know why they weren't on sale but whatever the reason its poor from the club. Doesn't detract from the quality day out they still put on, just would have been a good way to make more money. The players were whisked away whilst folk were queuing to play with em. Plenty moaned, I was pretty pleased cos season tickets are expensive and it looks like Bruce is taking next season seriously.

From a sales/marketing point of view it's pretty shambolic to have the same errors/missed opportunities year after year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
