Doffs cap for my triple century.
No it wasn't, I expressed an opinion on the way the tweet went down on social media, given the open goal it left. I've not said I was massively bothered by it. Just didn't think it was that social media savvy and many agreed.I've no idea how many. It was you saying we were a laughing stock on social media as a result of the club's tweet. It was you taking it to heart.
I couldn't give two shits what other clubs think.
Just posting an article from the local rag doesn't count mateDoffs cap for my triple century.
JJ Pool and BFC 3 have done the heavy lifting in this innings. Sterling effort! I particularly enjoyed the odd fist bump after a smooth stroke to the boundary.Just posting an article from the local rag doesn't count mate

Sorry
What time on July 5th will we be able to witness this indecent exposure?Exeter City's early bird price finished last week and they've sold 3220.
Come back on July 5th when our early bird window closes and if we haven't sold more than that by then I'll bare my arse in the club shop window. At that point go on social media and inform Exeter that they are small time Charlies.
As I keep repeating, context is all, and taking a random number after two weeks of sales means nothing.
U don’t half spout some shit you 🛎 endNever thought I’d see the day where Fleetwood have 50% of the ground. Could be on next season.
Chill CliveU don’t half spout some shit you 🛎 end
Fleetwood don't have half the ground when they're at home.Never thought I’d see the day where Fleetwood have 50% of the ground. Could be on next season.
Utter nonsense for a number of reasons.Never thought I’d see the day where Fleetwood have 50% of the ground. Could be on next season.
Utter nonsense for a number of reasons.
1. We wouldn't give it them
2. They couldn't fill it
3. Jackanory finished in the 80's
Why is this thread full of people putting us down? When it was the big return to BR there was such positivity and optimism - what has killed that on this board?
And to get a buzz going surely we have to make an early signing or two. Please don't make it like last season when week after week passed by and then we made two late permanent signings, one at least that as a last minute panic!I agree with what @Phil_bfc deux has been writing in that to get a few more tickets sold before early bird starts there has to be a bit of a buzz about the place and it just feels as if it’s as flat as a pint of BFC beer.
There is probably lots going on behind the scenes but communication has been really poor from the club this last few months and it’s easier to forget to renew than it is to actually do it.
Yep bizarre from the club - they have an amazing product to sell but yet they communicate zilchI agree with what @Phil_bfc deux has been writing in that to get a few more tickets sold before early bird starts there has to be a bit of a buzz about the place and it just feels as if it’s as flat as a pint of BFC beer.

Could be better but its not zilch. In the last week we've had announcements of a new sporting director, two assistant coaches, and a friendly with Hibs. Players will come once Downes has got his feet under the desk. Most clubs have done little or no transfer business.Yep bizarre from the club - they have an amazing product to sell but yet they communicate zilch
Fair point and yes it’s informative but it’s hardly a rallying call. Where’s the buzz gone.Could be better but its not zilch.

Who knows but your right, something has changed, it’s poor.Comms were great a few seasons ago … seems a shadow of where we were. Not sure if been staff changes ?
Wow, that is a massive commitment. This is why the club needs to engage with the fans and be much more positive. You’re not travelling 200 miles if there is no talk of getting promoted. However if the club is buzzing and upbeat then you would probably buy a season ticket.I’ve not renewed I might buy one of those half season tickets midway through the season it depends on the intent shown 200 mile round trip every game for me big commitment, made 8 games last season lost out massively

We actually had a positive feeling season end despite going down. But seemed to begin to lose a bit of that positivity once the season ended and nothing was heard for a while, bar the SS silencing people saga.I agree with what @Phil_bfc deux has been writing in that to get a few more tickets sold before early bird starts there has to be a bit of a buzz about the place and it just feels as if it’s as flat as a pint of BFC beer.

We do need to get back to where we were pre Appleton. Regular positive videos on TTV. Suddenly stopped. I wonder why?We actually had a positive feeling season end despite going down.

It was very quiet up until the ST info was just released wasn't it? For me the club needs to start controlling the narrative a bit more at times, I get if there's nothing to announce... but leave a vacuum and people fill it especially after a very negative season, fans probably needed to hear an explanation earlier, we did get it in the end.
The ST's were then announced with little fanfare, for eg no video of fans in the stands like last time, ok it's a slightly different feel after going down but still. Sadly none of the ideas people said on here were implemented and there were some good ones, ST's with perks etc.
The ST prices didn't exactly cause a rush to the ticket office, especially with the card charge, the general reaction from most fans I've seen wasn't terrible like an Appleton type reaction, but also there wasn't many praising it.
Critchley coming back whilst I'm OK and happy with it now, I wasn't calling for it at the time, it wasn't giving the popular Dobbie the chance or the buzz you get from someone new. The video with SS and Critchley was decent tbf, I quite liked it as it's the most we've heard from him in a while.
Good to finally get the sporting director, a positive for me although obviously no-one knows too much about him yet.
The coaches coming back wasn't exactly unexpected but also wasn't going to get anoyne jumping around with glee.
I've already renewed my ST but just judging the general feeling on various social media, people are not that excited so far and tbh I can see that side.
I'm looking forward to this season in many ways, as I think it'll be a far better season than what we just had and if we get it right we might just do it.
But it's fair to say there hasn't been much of a buzz created so far.
But also like Wiz says, it's also on fans too to show some intent, it does work both ways. Yes the club needs to lift fans, for me it's not done that as much as some of us would have tried to do.
But equally if 7k of us had renewed in the first few weeks, said you know what, let's try and get back to championship and have some belief, that would give SS and the club a lift, seeing that many behind them already and giving the club some guaranteed income.
But not everyone has that mentality and it was obvious after the season we had we'd need to hit a few things bang on to get fans buzzing by this point. Still, plenty of time really and now the real excitement can happen of signings.

How about some intent from the fans? With a huge cut in TV money, season ticket money becomes all the more important. Back the club.
I missed a load of games last season due to rail strikes, health problem and midweek games which are difficult for me to attend, being an exile, but have renewed and my sister and family, i'm told, are renewing when returning from Italy in two week's time. I've been through thick and thin many times and the present situation is nothing new to me. I am a Blackpool fan and back the club (Oyston out years excepted) so get your hands in your pockets and do the same. It's a no brainer for me.Wow, that is a massive commitment.

I think the fans have shown plenty of intent over the last 2/3 years. Its time for the club to show some intent.I'm travelling 180 miles. Didn't think twice before renewing. The poster talks about intent from the club.

Why did you feel the need to tell everyone how far you're travelling?
Where do you lay the blame for the catastrophe that happened last season?
Correct me if im wrong here, what you're saying is that the fans have to pay for the mistakes that cost us our place in Div2? We would nearly have to shift 25000 STs to cover the shortfall because of the mismanagement.
Won't be far off beating the number of ST's soldDoffs cap for my triple century.
It's up to 7000 but don't tell jjpool incase he explodes in his pants.How many season tickets sales up to now?..anyone actually know?
No chance yet and something tells me you joining in Jan isn't your 1st username...It's up to 7000 but don't tell jjpool incase he explodes in his pants.

So how many usernames have you had if that is how it works in your head.No chance yet and something tells me you joining in Jan isn't your 1st username...
1 since I joined the old site nearly 2 decades ago. Just odd you mentioned me.So how many usernames have you had if that is how it works in your head.
Sorry to be the customary English grammar 'bore', especially when it concerns a scribe I hold in the very highest regard, but, if I may, I just quickly wish to raise a point with regard to the above extract, and I quote: "... when returning from Italy in two week's time..."; which should actually read as, "... when returning from Italy in two weeks' time..." The minor difference being, the misplaced apostrophe in the short passage reading "in two week's time...", which, grammatically speaking, should actually read as: "... in two weeks' time..." with the correct plural possessive apostrophe placed thus: weeks'; and not week's, the latter being a singular possessive apostrophe.I missed a load of games last season due to rail strikes, health problem and midweek games which are difficult for me to attend, being an exile, but have renewed and my sister and family, i'm told, are renewing when returning from Italy in two week's time.

.. and it would be fascinating to see the difference in ticket sales had Dobbie got the job!We actually had a positive feeling season end despite going down.
We'll never know, however it obviously was a popular choice, let's hope we've made the right decision with Critchley... and it would be fascinating to see the difference in ticket sales had Dobbie got the job!
Shouldn’t make a bit of difference. You’re either loyal or you’re not.. and it would be fascinating to see the difference in ticket sales had Dobbie got the job!
I'm not sure it's a matter of loyalty, but agree with the general point that no one should be basing their season ticket choice on who the manager is.Shouldn’t make a bit of difference. You’re either loyal or you’re not
It doesn’t make any difference whether we like it or not. Sadler has spent the last four years telling us he only the ‘guardian’ of the club and the same amount of time proving he’s the boss and what he says goes. Which he is perfectly entitled to do, he laid out the millions to buy it, however I wish he would give over pretending we are involved. Apart from shelling out our hard earned, he doesn’t give a monkeys what we think.We'll never know, however it obviously was a popular choice, let's hope we've made the right decision with Critchley.
Log out and in again? It should be working, if not contact the club tomorrow.Just tried to renew online but they won't add to my basket.
Anyone having the same problem?
