Expensive business watching football.

 

[Brett&Murphs.]

I can’t see them reducing the price. Especially not to Huddersfield prices. This summer is a bit different like but we had all this ‘well only sell x amount’ last year.

The football isn’t great but as usual it will come down to who we sign IMO.

 

[NewburyOne]

The club is being subsidised to the tune of £4-£5M a season and yet some want season tickets at a knock down price. If we were to lower ours to those prices it wouldn't necessarily result in more income, chances are it would mean less, which would in turn impact on the playing budget. We need to find a decent balance and I'd say ~£350 is about right.

£300 more like it. Were a 3rd Division club watching turgid football.

The level has a bearing but not the style, the moneymen can't make the players better or Critchley turn into Holloway. When you look at prices throughout the division, ours are somewhere in the middle.

 

[Macseasider]

I still can't believe our club doesn't have one

Same issues since Sadler came. No progress as a club at all. Managed stagnation.

Will be over soon enough

I can see his assets frozen and the club sold to be honest

The writing has been on the wall since he left Hong Kong

 

[Limechase]

We could have £200 season tickets if football didnt pay average 3rd div young lads £6k per week... I know its not just us, but really, £6k+ a week??

Ive always said the wages for a fortunate few are costing us, and killing the golden goose.... & YES of course I would take that money if offered, but wages are the biggest outlay for clubs outside the Prem.... & No I dont have a solution....

How many times?!!!!!!!

It's Engineered Stagnation, which was copyrighted circa 2000 under the O's. I since dropped any copyright issues.

It does give that sort of air off.

Have I Got News For You may give this a mention at 9 tonight in the odd one out section.

No major problem with 349, but it could be better.

I'd tap into the Uber fans who will pay extra- loads of ways to do that. You may drop the 349 a bit....329, or less, to cement the wavering fans.

I'd also give every U18 4 games a season where they can apply for 4 extra free tickets in the same price band (upto 1000 tickets perhaps). Try and attract some of the 1000 back in again. Family tickets, 2 A's 2K's and only 1 K gets charged.

It just requires will and thought.

 

[Charliecleanstonysheens]

If they rolled over then we put them to the sword, doesn’t matter what their approach is ffs

I’m furious with this season so I’m not acting with rose tinted glasses at all,

I’ll just approach it with facts instead of manipulating how things went to suit your agenda like a child.

You're the one crying like a baby because someone doesn't agree with your "words of wisdom"

 

[Wizzerboy]

Interestingly, I have just seen Hudds have released theirs, who are now obviously in the same league as us. They're very good value, after a poor season, especially the U11s at £49.

Was playing golf yesterday with one of my terrier supporting mates.
Told me they'd frozen prices from last season as, in their owners words, didn't deserve to increase the price after the season they'd had.

If he’s found guilty,think his dream will be shattered,even if not I think he will sell,how embarrassing.

 

[Chunkylad]

Considering how many have said they won’t renew due to Critchley on this message board, I am surprised there’s even a debate on the ST price?

Pretty irrelevant for most of you isn’t it? Even if it’s £100, it’s still Critch at the helm so you’re not renewing right?

 

[Wizaard]

If the home form was brilliant, name a team that we actually "put to the sword" I can't think of one.

Bolton.
Reading
Stevenage

 

[tigger]

£150 for 23 home games works out at £6.50 a game. What do you get for £6.50 nowadays?
Even at £350 it’s £15 a game

 

[tonners1212]

Not true though is it, I’m just calling someone out for making things up to suit an agenda. Never mentioned ‘words of wisdom’ also, but I appreciate you calling them just that

I'm glad you think you can read someone else's mind, dream on. With regard to your remark about wisdom, obviously irony is lost on you.

 

[Razzledazzle53]

Bolton.
Reading
Stevenage

And Barnsley, should have been 5 or 6 at half time

 

[TickTock]

Is that down to Sadler though. I am wondering about this Julian Winter bloke who seems to be offering the square root of bog all.

Surely you've got to give him a chance to see what he does, it's the off season so left see once ST prices are released etc.

 

[7YearCritch]

PNE:
Missing out on the early-bird prices will see an adult season-ticket holder paying £420 (Alan Kelly Town End and family zone), £495 (Sir Tom Finney Stand or the Invincibles Pavilion) and £550 (Premium). Those prices are up between 2.8 and 5% on last year’s prices.

 

[King Billy]

£300 more like it. Were a 3rd Division club watching turgid football.

Hartlepool Utd who finished 12th in the national league, prices for next season are £358 and that’s early bird.
I doubt the club will say, yes we are shit and play shit football so have them for £300.

 

[thecatintheroof]

It is quite ludicrous that 18 days after the season has ended that no details of season tickets have been released.
BST should, if they are the official fans spokes group, be sending out social media posts, issuing articles to the Gazette and publishing messages on here expressing their disappointment about the fact we are lagging behind in so many areas at the moment.

 

[basilexile]

Perhaps the longer it's left, they may think we will have forgotten about last seasons football.

The BST Gazette article for May, published this week, does call for both a fan-friendly approach to ST prices and a fans forum during the summer open to all fans.

As to your wider point, there are lots of different ways of engaging with the club other than shouting at them. The biggest single development relevant to fans we have seen this year was the club's proposal "Seasiders Together" , and we put in a very full response - which you can read here.

BST response to BFC's "Seasiders Together" charter.

for Blackpool Fans, our Club and our CommunityAll, This response has been sent to the club today and consists of BST members feedback and the thoughts of the BST Committee.We look forward to future dialogue to help improve the process for all involved.SEASIDERS TOGETHER: BLACKPOOL SUPPORTERS...

Bolton, Stevenage, Reading and Shrewsbury off the top of my head.

I don’t like the manager but try to only deal in facts. We were pretty good at home

 

[CornishPool]

Still no news and yet a year ago they were announced, very disappointed

 

[mull]

I know we’re generally one of the last to announce but have the club said anything yet about our prices for next season?

Currently they've not said anything about relegation from the Championship so expecting them to have said anything about season ticket prices before the new season has even started is overly optimistic in my opinion

 

[Charliecleanstonysheens]

Certainly not brilliant though. The nearest to decent football was Forest in the cup.

The nearest to decent football? We actually played good football in several games. Bolton Barnsley Forest for three. It was a disappointing season but accuracy isn't too difficult to achieve when reflecting, if you try to be honest and balanced and give credit if it's due.

So if I give them credit for playing "good football" in three home games that's 3 out of at least 26 games ( sorry for any inaccuracy) Do you think that's acceptable ? I don't. IT WAS BORING !!!

You said we didn't even play decent football, not even once. I'd say we played good football at least three times and actually more than three. And decent football more than that.

 

[BIG_BERTHA_3]

The biggest obstacle to getting fans to stump up is a decent payment system ,get that one sorted and I sure they will snare a few more fans .

 

[Matesrates]

I would guess there’s been a computer model done to show various options, full stadium with low prices, three quarters full with slightly lower than current, half full with current prices etc etc

One with Critchley as manager and another with Dobbie

There’s nobody at Blackpool on 6k plus a week

 

[Limechase]

Ok but several thousand ponds then.

 

[Albert Ross]

There’s nobody at Blackpool on 6k plus a week

Not since Connolly left.

 

[Leyland bfc]

There’s nobody at Blackpool on 6k plus a week

How do u know

 

[JJpool]

I wonder when they'll release prices...if not tomorrow then Monday is my guess.

 

[TommyHutch]

Are we even doing season tickets this year? The usual lethargy from the club.
