thats how i read it too. sounds a good idea to me.

A book of tickets, say 5 ,that you get at a small discount for pre purchase ,1 £ per game that you can use at any match, or all 5 at 1 match, whatever you want

London Skolars have always sold a "six pack" ticket. Which have 6 vouchers that could be exchanged for 6 tickets. Offered a small saving as opposed to paying cash on the door

Good for those who can't make every game. Gets some money up front. I'd certainly buy one.

Didn't know you were a Skolars fan Brew!

Charlie doesn't know

.

Always enjoyed trips to the New River Stadium (or White Hart Lane community sports centre if you prefer). Been there a couple of times besides the 2 visits fax have made

Plus who can forget that massive log someone left....

It's a good idea really.
My two sons Halifaxsteve and Halifaxpaul have always until last season had season tickets.
Because of holidays and children commitments Halifaxrugrats a season ticket is not viable.
Sometimes last year they didn't attend the games they didn't fancy, now, if a ticket was available for say five less games than the season ticket with a little advantage price wise over gate admission I think they would buy one.
Worth trying? because three years ago they wouldn't have missed a game apart from summer holidays.
Incidentally Mrs Halifaxjohn was once a regular like me but I decided my Sunday Evening dinner should be on the table when I got home.

One advantage of this is if the whole Halifaxclan family decide " Its a nice day today, lets all go to the game " you already have your tickets

Since the introduction of thursday matches season tickets can become unrealistic pricewise, let alone holidays and shift patterns, my suggestion is a ' half way house ' between a ST and individual tickets that also allows every fan with a multi ticket to market your club to the unbelievers within our communities, sell 500 of these and you effectively have 500 mobile ticket offices within your fan base

it's a great idea. I know a few indecisive people who could be swayed by something like this.

We could have the Halifaxclan Family v The Carolis in a Pre-match Tug O War

.

What a good idea.
I shy away from season tickets because of shift work and holiday, I reckon this would be better for me and many more.

Agreed, I work shifts do this would help me but get money into the Fax coffers early doors.
Marketing team, are you on this?

I bet it's gone cold by the time you get home from the thursday night matches !


I think such an offer would be a winner, a lot of the fixtures don't appeal to me personally anymore in a division whereby becoming champions has no promotion, basically a division of friendly games between SL clubs cast-off squad members barring the few clubs who had the balls to remain loyal to their morals & trust in the development structures.
If an offer for let's say any 5 or 6 home league games was made available i'd be interested for sure, so long as it didn't tie me into watching games against teams that wouldn't have drawn me in in the first place.

A season ticket isn't viable for me nowadays with the chance we might be playing thursdays & summer holidays etc etc unfortunately i don't carry the "support your team regardless" attitude anymore, but that's not our club's fault it's mainly down to the whole structure of the game generally.

Spot on MM.

Same here id be interested too, with my son playing RL on a Sundays we can`t always make but being able to purchase a tkt for 5 or 6 games to be used at your own choice would be great.

I've been saying that season tickets are an outdated concept for years now. People are beginning to listen.

The future is some form of discounted multi-ticket, coupled with some form of "membership scheme".

The details can be tailored to your club's particular needs.

in the pub tonight in my new fax shirt, got talking to a few lads that have become disillusioned with live rugby league and put this idea forward. didn't hear a single negative. all thought it was a great idea

Who's going to email the club to see what they think?

Don it now Brew, twice in fact, first with the wrong link and second with the correct one, I hope.

The things I do for you lot

With a company head on the risk element is would fans who commit to a season ticket downgrade to a 5/6/7/game one if available? I will confess to liking Griffs 13 ticket purchase to use as you wish.

What risk? , there is NO risk, there is the real risk that encouraging fans to purchase a ST for 13 games knowing that in all probablility due to holidays, family commitments,televised games and stadium intransigence that you might only get to attend 75% of those games could eventually pi55 people off

The solution? , offer an option, one that empowers your biggest asset to help you market and sell the club to new,old, past, disolutioned fans, to win a war, you recruit an army, give them something to fight with and the battles will be won

In these difficult financial times a £ 75 5 match ticket is a reasonably cheap option for a xmas present

There is a risk in letting ' bean counters ' run your marketing

Accountants, " They know the cost of everything, but the value of nothing " or so the saying goes

HAHA that'd be Griff then

Selling it as 13 matches with a discount loses nothing but if you use them up before the end of the season it could bring added money in to the club.

Got to be worth looking in to if it has potential to generate cashflow.
