A novel but excellent suggestion - should be considered by top brass
What I would like to see is something like a rolling direct debit scheme for 12 months of the year at £12.50 for a season ticket. Something everyone could afford. £150 a year. We should be able to sell 20,000 at that. There would be no excuses then. That would give us an income of £250,000 a month even during closed season, and that is without extras like away supporters or cup runs as well as those that paid each game whilst we are down in Division 3. Fill the Ricoh. Give it an atmosphere.
But what do I know? I am not in charge.
£249 is cheap enough.

I agree £250 is cheap enough , we should sell 8000 ish at these prices .. (Should)
£250x8000=£2,000,000
£150x20,000=£3,000,000
Of course the tickets still need to be sold. But it works for Bradford. They will be about sold out each game again next season. And how much better would the Ricoh be if it wasn't 75% empty?

They won't get 20k season ticket holders though. They're aiming for 15k, which would be £2,250,000. Thing is, they'd get all the income from more fans on match day then, plus away crowd, plus a better atmosphere. But I still think £250 for a season ticket is good.

Not saying £250 isn't good. But it is all about supply and demand. We know the demand is there when the tickets are cheap. And we have plenty of seats to supply. And I thought we were getting 50% matchday income.
£250x8000=£2,000,000
£150x8000=£1,200,000
But Bradford get all the pie money
I suppose we won't sell any more by reducing them to £250 this season. You had better let SISU know.

Bradford averaged 13k in a 25k stadium, in what world is that sold out each game?

Maybe our owners should look at this
First 5000 £250
5001 -6000 £240
6001 - 7000 £230 ....and so on til it stops at £150 per season ticket ...
Thoughts ??

How is a mathematical calculation a sign of pessimism?Is your glass always half empty ?
They have only had 2 wembley finals, a promotion and a decent season this year (another good cup run as well). I cannot see how they can average more than us.You are right. Not been to Bradford for a lot of years and it has been extended since I was last there.
14,121 average for 2013/2014 season in Division 3. Good numbers for them. Puts ours to shame.

You do know the saying ?
I like to think my glass is always half full. If that helps.

Not if its half full of mind bending LSD that makes you post like a delusional cretin then no.
The other way might work better. First 100 season tickets are £50 next 100 are £100, next 100 are £150 etc. Get some momentum going with the sales, if you got to the start of June and had sold something like 5,000 it might start to snowball a bit.
Obviously you have to be careful that whatever you do you're not shooting yourself in the foot and lowering the total season ticket revenue.
