Raising the prices week by week is pretty shabby - with the underlying threat that they could be much higher whenever they next go on sale. Yes agree with the week by week rise point. For me though, as said the acid test will be the timing and price pitched for the next offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on that basis I won’t part with my money. There was always going to be a requirement for significant funds input and likely in the form of loans. More than likely that this offers a bridge until the next tranche is in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the price on 21 December is £40 dearer for my ticket than on 13 December you have to think it’s going to be at least £50 more. Even for what would previously have been an early early bird. Pretty shabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooner or later we’re going to be asked to pay a year in front every season. I’m still conflicted on whether or not to renew at the lowest price. As it stands the club look like losing someone who has had a ST since 1977. We have already been asked to do that with the several multi year season tickets deals the club has put out in the past. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder too what the input of the COO was in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassetts Allsorts Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 February is traditionally early-bird renewal time. I don't understand what the reward is for doing it now? A much better way to market this would've been to incentivise those that buy before Christmas (reduce the price, not freeze it) and communicate the usual renewal period is happening with prizes frozen in February 2022. Instead the club has used deadline driven marketing to push fans to buy now with no notice and during the most expensive time of the year. It's yet another example of just how out of touch our leader is. The fact that the Fan Engagement Panel told him this was a bad idea and he did it anyway tells you a lot about how he runs the club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chansiri should learn to say no when a agent or manager wants yet another player. And that’s probably the reason he needs the cash. They won’t have come cheap.

But timing is a bit shoddy and timescales to purchase But then you were being served a much better product. Like, a steak costs more than a burger at a restaurant, but IT ALSO TASTES NICER. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 In the future this shîtshow will be given marketing students as a case study in how to completely bôllox up a launch of a product. Its rule 1 of selling anything. Don’t try and flog expensive non essential items on the run up to Christmas. The fact it coincides with the biggest squeeze on family finances for ages is just the icing on the cake. I already can’t afford Christmas. So I’m going to pass on this generous early bird offer… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
