What have the club done to try and win back lost fans?
Was it expected that they move back to Coventry and everyone just forgets what happened last year?
Everything the club has done has resulted in fans lost. Got us relegated, sold our best players, let our best manager go, signed terrible players, failed to file accounts and got us transfer embargo (twice) took us to Northampton, sued everyone.
The large crowd at the first game back was an abberation, we are now returning to normality.
Who has stopped going as a result of them not filing accounts?

Speaking personally there has been so much crap over the last few years in the shape of Marlon King, SISU, court cases, moving to Northampton, purile satements from Tim Fisher (we have moved on), poor team performances, selling good young prospects, building a new stadium in the Coventry area, that I just can't be arsed with it.
It's been a slow process but I have slowly disengaged with the club, which is sad as it used to be a big part of my life and that of my family. The saddest part of it all is that when I sit down and think about it I dont' really miss it.
Maybe I have "moved on". Thanks Tim.

The club need to be bending over backwards to get fans back.
Out of the 7,700 fans who went yesterday how many even wanted to. Many on here said they were not even looking forward to it. I don't blame them. Why would you look forward to playing crawley town after 3 straight losses and played crap football all year with average at best players.
The gates will decrease again. Won't get 5,000 for Exeter and that's a £5.
End of the day football is simple and if the football is crap and players are average to crap and the team is losing with a relegation and moving home and all the heart break and stress it caused then and tickets at £22-24 a go to watch dog shit guess what only 7k will go at most. Very very simple. To think some were moaning at 11k against yeovil. I think me and some other were proved right. 11k was actually a good gate. To think otherwise was absurd.
Slightly confused, you imply people won't go partly due to ticket prices at £22-£24 (cheaper tickets are available), but even less will go when it's £5.
The prices are appalling. £5 is for a JPT game which is not on everyone's list of great events. It does represent good value and consequently there will be 5000 there. God forbid at £22 we would barely get 1500 !!
To get fans back
Firstly resolve the future if the club. If it is a new stadium but the land release the plans.
If it is the Ricoh put a bid in to counter wasps.
Joy Sepalla once a fortnight should do an interview with CWR.
She actually is well spoken and comes across well.
Fans need to feel valued and engaged with the club.
We need a run and to be in the top six for sustained period.

£84 for 6 games of football isn't bad at all.
They should charge £22 then, the club would get more ticket revenue.
Yes Nick, you've made your point on that and I'll take up that offer myself. Problem comes for us though as a family of 5 when we're never quite sure of how many of us are able to attend due to work commitments and other alternatives. Yesterday if I'd paid the £14, the missus would still have had to pay £24 and the kids a further £39 on top. It mounts up quickly !!

hope you reconsider, the club needs you and so do your fellow supporters. One day I am sure SISU and the reasons you hate will be gone.

If you buy 6 in a batch then your wife would have used one of the vouchers so would have been £14 too
Then just buy a 6 package for the kids, use them as and when.
Luckily, my wife hates football so I save myself a fortune.

You're doing a better sales job than the club pal, I'll certainly be taking advantage of this one way or another.

They could have a section to answer questions.
tbf, Leonard Brody's twitter account is a fine example of how that can turn out!
They should be shouting from the rooftops the club is back, the same as they should about Tuesday's £5 game.
I mean proper questions rather than just silly abuse. "Where is my ticket" type things.
.
They way they do promotions like this is counter productive. The only people who will know about the promotion are those that already go and how many of them said lets not bother yesterday, we'll go to the cheap game in the week instead.
If you're going to have a promotion then promote the bloody thing.
