Pubs and restaurants around Sixfields full of Sky Blues. Even the pubs down near the Saints rugby were raking it in. Im very much on your side but this NOPM thing is struggling by the looks of it.

It's been two games. /thread

Id also say if this is NOPM not working then we're fucked as it means 8000 city fans have just got bored and wandered off.

For a hedge-fund that seems to make all it's money from debt, the last thing that they'd want is loads of fans to go and make it sustainable and harder to pile on debt from "management charges" and the like.

There were always going to be a few fans going to sixfields.The point is fisher said if we were doing well they would be getting crowds of 6-7000.well we are and they're not.Shame cos the football we're playing deserves a big crowd.

Just to check out what the fuss is about. Won't be going again although the way you are playing it is attractive I'll be honest.

Tbf, unless SISU run these pubs and restaurants, how is it not working? They're still only getting ticket revenue from just over 2000 fans, including away fans

More importantly they are not getting money from at least 9000 fans.

Surely SISU are not stupid and see the majority of there customers do not want there product.

This type of thread where 1000 CCFC supporters going makes out that SISU is winning bores me.

At the worst Fisher budgeted for gates of 3,000 minimum ! If only 2,000 go (including freebies and away fans) NOPM IS definately working !

Well if they're spending their money outside that stadium they're less likely to be spending it at Sixfields even if they have bought a ticket. Which is better than nothing although not going at all would be preferable in my opinion. However if they want to go that's their decision.

I wonder if SISU agreed a minimum spend amount with Mr Cardoza with the understanding that they'd make up the difference if not enough food and drink was bought by the fans.

Haha yes I was weak I admit it and at a loose end. Funny thing is you are playing so well that even though I won't go again I will look out for your results

IMHO It was never going to work!
Owners leave when they want to leave not when fans think they should. Ken Bates at Leeds is typical, fans there trying to get him out for almost 10 years and he's only recently departed, WHEN HE DECIDED TO GO!!!!!!!!!!

Attendances for the first 2 home games last year were 12,621 & 10,285, versus 2,204 & 2,068. I note also that the attendance has fallen by 200 from that of the first game.

So that is 18,634 tickets down.. which at an average of £10 per ticket is £186,000 lower income.. taken over the whole season that would be £4.2M less turnover.

Seems like it is having quite an effect to me.

not what you said 2 weeks ago, you were going and we're vigorously defending your rights as a fan, why the sudden change of heart?

Exactly, the whole point of a hedge fund getting involved in football is to make money, I ,like thousands of other have money willing to give it to them , but they don't want it.Can anyone name one other club that would turn there own fans money down

To be fair there is no president for NOPM AFAIK. Leeds isn't comparable as they kept filling the stadium even in L1 Bates could rake in cash, why would he leave?

its too early to tell if NOPM is working or not

one thing for sure though giving money since shitsu took over certainly hasn't worked. demotion, debt, administration and homeless. NOPM cant be any worse.
