but I follow, + commercial activities + Furlough payments even with Covid you would have hoped would bring in another £1m +3000 CCMs at most £250 a load likely a lot less. I’d be surprised if he took much more than half a million in tickets. Basically two full Ricohs. Really puts it in perspective.

Oh yeah totally, O wasn’t disagreeing with you. Just did the maths and it hit home how little we got from ticket sales this year.
Suggestions were that take-up hasn't been all that great, which I really can't understand (OK, I understand the job insecurity I guess!) - not like we've been doing much else! It's also been a godsend for those of us who'd normally work Saturdays etc...I've forked out (as a lot of others will have) the equivalent of my ST (and more) via ifollow for the away/cup games etc. Not seen any figures for the income to the club, but hopefully (as it is our first season at this level, and most games - until now! - have seen vitally important, the take up will have been decent. Suspect some clubs (e.g. Blackburn) who have been meandering in the middle and been on a bit of a slump will have seen take up drop quite a bit as the season has progressed.

I reckon piracy is causing a lot of that TBH.

Yep, doesn't help. Then the same people will moan when we don't spend as much as they think we should.
Yet season ticket holders pay around £13 a game opposed to those who buy tickets weekly pay £22/24 are ST holders taking money out of the clubs pocket too.
One of the worst takes I have ever seen.Yet season ticket holders pay around £13 a game opposed to those who buy tickets weekly pay £22/24 are ST holders taking money out of the clubs pocket too.
We have three home season tickets but only one away ifollow pass so if that's the norm then whilst some will watch on tv but not go, most buying would probably have gone to the game. No idea if we are the average or not, but if we averaged 2,500 away then that would only be approx 800 passes. Even at 1,000 then at £10 (which includes vat and I imagine a cut for the broadcaster and ifollow), I imagine we receive more like £6 per ticket.is approx £100k pa
Totally missing the point. That is the point of a season ticket, you pay less if you commit to going to ALL the games. Are people really this thick?Yet season ticket holders pay around £13 a game opposed to those who buy tickets weekly pay £22/24 are ST holders taking money out of the clubs pocket too.
SISU know how to get blood out of a stone. Chances are we are better placed than many.Anyone know what our income will be for this season?
Heard around £8m including Sky money?
Thank God we have stayed up i dread to think of the financial implications had we had gone down.
10k at St Andrews? Not likely. We’ll never know. Lucky if we get 10k at the Ricoh.IMO - Factors to consider for the clubs finances are:
* Whatever the revenues from TV, say circa £7.5M it's a big increase on the £1.3M we received in L1.
* Our increased player wage bill this season will take a cut out of that, but would have been projected against a break even budget.
* Our budget from 20-21 season will have been adversely impacted by the pandemic, as I would guess the club will have projected to have fans attending games post Xmas.
* Given the club would have projected attendances at StA to be circa 10k??? our lost income will be significantly less than every other Championship club.
* The interest payment on the loans to the club may have been deferred.
* Given the return to the Ricoh for 21-22 season AND staying in the Championship the income to the club will increase by circa 15-20%?
Finally, the proportionate financial "hit" of Covid on our club is significantly less than our Championship competitors and I expect some of them to face big cut backs in expenditure, whilst we may be in a position to increase our budget.
I’m not against season tickets and don’t disagree with them paying less per game for fronting up the cash to buy one it’s gone on for years i was replying to a thread criticising those watch Ogi oi for free basically robbing cash out of ccfc pockets.Totally missing the point. That is the point of a season ticket, you pay less if you commit to going to ALL the games. Are people really this thick?
It is robbing Cov of cash by illegally streaming the IFollow games.I’m not against season tickets and don’t disagree with them paying less per game for fronting up the cash to buy one it’s gone on for years i was replying to a thread criticising those watch Ogi oi for free basically robbing cash out of ccfc pockets.
They all areNo doubt we should have a bit more money to play with next season due to being back at the Ricoh and the much better commercial terms we have. Also being established in the Champ will mean we can attract players who might think twice to a newly promoted club. The benefits of staying up this season cannot be underestimated. This summer is an absolute crucial recruitment window to keep the upward trend at this club.
But you are never going to stop it.It is robbing Cov of cash by illegally streaming the IFollow games.

Well I'm definitely older generation and I've bought my ST for next season, but time will come when I can't or won't go to games anymore and would love to take advantage of Ifollow if it was available. I did pay for the first Blackburn game but all I got was a black screen and a stuttering quarter circle. Having tried to understand I came to the conclusion that my ten year old computer running Vista was not up to it, So it may be older generation tech. that's the problem.There's a whole older generation that won't have gone anywhere near iFollow.
My ZX Spectrum couldnt handle it either.Well I'm definitely older generation and I've bought my ST for next season, but time will come when I can't or won't go to games anymore and would love to take advantage of Ifollow if it was available.
