There aren't really flaws in my opinions you're just purposely refusing to accept my view as it counters yours.

My business is an SME, as will be the vast majority of box holders both current, old and new. Very few large enterprises are box holders at the club.

I think this is a massive stretch. There really isn't much onboarding involved with regards to purchasing a box.

I've stated on numerous occasions it was imperative that both STs and hospitality go up, especially the latter as the previous prices were far too low. I've also been a big advocate last year on the club looking at ways to maximise commercial revenue as it has continually failed to do so since...

Please point out where I stated no boxes will be sold?

Horrible habit of posters failing to read posts properly today. I said I don't think they'll reach 25 sold.

I mean given they've only sold five I very much doubt they'll reach that figure. Also, no one stated the club wouldn't sell any boxes.

I've never said it's irrelevant, I said just randomly setting prices to what other clubs in the league are charging is a poor strategy as there's a lot of other facets to consider when pricing hospitality packages. It's an incredibly individual commodity and should be treated accordingly. Not...

But the majority of box holders aren't railroading the club. Many simply can't afford it and due to the club's poor handling of the situation have been left with few suitable alternatives with regards to seating arrangements. Regardless of what they were paying for boxes their anger is entirely...

Which suggests your anger is entirely misplaced. If you want to blame anyone, blame the club's inept commercial department for getting themselves into this mess.

A pointless benchmark if you can't sell boxes. As stated previously, mirroring what other clubs are paying is a poor strategy, as a number of other facets have to be taken into consideration when pricing corporate packages.

For some perhaps. But also a chunk likely won't be able to afford to pay the current prices and due to the lateness of the announcement are struggling to find alternative seating that fits with their match day arrangements. Thankfully I was able to find alternative seating which I'm happy with...

You quite clearly have a massive chip on your shoulder so it's pointless conversing with you.

How is it box holders 'taking the piss' when those were the prices set by the club? Please explain? It's not entitlement either, staggering the prices over 2-3 seasons allows the club to try to find their ideal price point, as well as provide them sufficient time to nurture relationships with...

Good player when fit, but his injury record in recent years is abysmal.

How is it simple logic? Their product quite obviously isn't worth what they're charging otherwise more than a handful of box holders would've renewed. The logic you and DK are postering, that the club will be able to find a flurry of new corporates/large SME's that will be willing to align...

Yes more than likely. But as stated previously in another post, the match by match sales strategy will only work if the performances on the pitch warrant said sales. Hence why it's better to have boxes purchased for the entirety of the season than the commercial department be forced to sell them...

I've discussed why that's a problematic strategy in my previous posts. Not repeating myself again.

Yes, which its why I've long believed it was vital for the club to increase the prices of the boxes as they were priced far too low. I've even written a post on this thread criticising the commercial department for not increasing the prices further last summer. But there's a limit to which...

I've not said that whatsoever....
