Matt Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 And pissed nobody off. No. I think you'll find there will be plenty to :censored:ing moan about nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lags Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I don't understand. Why? It's simple really rummy. The numbers are down cos once over a regular decided to give a match a miss. Why? he/she didn't think it was worth the money/time/effort. Guess what they did it again and again. oh and again and again. Picture clear enough for you?

I'm sorry, perhaps the question shouldn't have been 'Why?'. You specifically said that attendances will drop due to this pricing. I'm still trying to understand how you can attribute any negative variances in attendance after the City friendly game, due to the cause of the price of the game.

It matters not what game it is Rummy. Once a punter takes the step of saying it's not worth it, where previously they go regardless. The mould as been broken. The empty seats around me are testimony to that. If you don't think that actually occurs we will agree to differ. I bet plenty others on here will agree that it does happen. However like so many things it appears this is yet another where we think differently. Makes a decent world though where we all get our own circle of friends.

The empty seats around you might suggest something else. It appears that the club can't win whatever they do, even when they try to make a dollar.

That helps in creating in the regular that once was mind that it's not worth it. Like the record say's 'The first cut is the deepest' Also has I stated elsewhere our fans do make this club a dollar. Plenty dollar's per fan. However knowing you, you're probably trying to say the empty seats are for something entirely different. It's not lost on me. Just that you're wrong.

Matt Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 why ? over voicing our beliefs just like you are. Not the way I see it. No-one is entitled to your opinions. I've (incredibly) read through a migraine of posts which amount to nothing new. I've still yet to witness how you are going to measure attendance loss due to a friendly - which was the initial claim. You might as well have said "This has nothing to do with the City friendly, but I'm going to huff and puff about the club anyway..." - at least there wouldn't have been any backtracking.

I've clearly stated why I believe this one game could lose fans like all the other one off games have in the recent past. Now you tell me at what point did a regular stop attending BP? was it his/her last game attended and could the fact they missed the next break the cycle. Or are you just incredibly to clever for such a simple concept. Maybe you should rest that pained head of yours. No one likes a big head brother. Why do you insist trying to be so?

slystallone Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 so your £5 at Mossley means that your opinion outweighs my £5 at Mossley?. No it doesn't and certainly doesn't mean that the opinnion of the man who struggles through the week to week living shouldn't hold the opinion it's too much. Or is he whinging? But....Chaddy14 never said that did he lags? Tish. Reading this thread after a fair few sangrias isnt good. I was happy pissed 5 mins ago, now im annoyed at fellow tics having a bloody moan at the club. Again. Im going to put my phone down and get back to being happy pissed again...and leave those that must to continue to moan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyPimp Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I don't bother with friendlies and won't be using my ST voucher. What's that? We're playing Man City and their Euro 2012 players are expected to be there. Nah, not interested mate, can't be arsed with friendlies. You can have my ST voucher if you want. They're charging £15 and I can't use my ST voucher? It's an effing disgrace, the club should be ashamed of themselves. I'm boycotting this :censored:. Who's with me?

jimsleftfoot Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 If you don't want to go, how about NOT GOING. I've always found it to be a simple response. Stop with all the complaining already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telling people not to complain is like saying everyone should just be happy with everything and to keep quiet. At the end of the day people have their opinions and as this is a forum, are completely entitled to air it. People moaning about people moaning, can no one see the irony?

I'm still trying to understand how you can attribute any negative variances in attendance after the City friendly game, due to the cause of the price of the game. I can see where he's coming from. I assumed it was a tenner and was looking forward to it, then the price was announced and I said :censored: that. My mate is a city fan and he said 'yeah, but you will pay £20 to watch Exeter' and I started to think will I? And you know what, I probably wont. I cancelled my ST two seasons ago because I cant make tuesdays, the tought of missing a saturday didnt even occur to me. I was a bit miffed paying £22 sometimes last season, but the £14 games made up for it, but now its gone up £6 I dont think I can justify it.
