oldhamains Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 It would seem someone has put a Dean Furman interview up two weeks before they should of. As they talk about the Notts Forrest game in past tense (2 weeks ago) and tell us how much season tickets are going to be. Target 5000? Season tickets next year £200+vat including a free shirt!

If they were talking about the Forest game in past tense, what was the result so I can get a bet on?

oldhamains Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 The interview was on the football league app android. Sorry bp1960 they didn't mention the score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Is there a planned VAT increase? Why not just say £240? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know whether you're joking but taking the proposal seriously, if we had an idea like that I doubt it would rake in 5000 home fans. If tickets were £232.50 or even around that price it's not significant enough drop to persuade fans to get tickets to watch the current football supplied. Free shirt would be irrelevant to most as the majority of adult ST holders (I'm estimating) don't have a shirt anyway and probably wouldn't be bothered about getting one, either. To get fans back we need to make a big reduction in prices. Like £150 or less for a ST. Otherwise, we'll have to wait until the product on the pitch gets better then make an incentive like this again when people see that there are lots of goals and wins for us at BP.

oldhamains Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Nope not joking. The interview is on the FL android app. Not sure if it's on the ipad and Latics player as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keep_the_faith Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Im intrigued to know how the interview went? dont understand how you can reflect on a game before its played? bit confused over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Assuming they're on sale in April, and the price is £240, saving up £15 a week makes it affordable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Assuming they're on sale in April, and the price is £240, saving up £15 a week makes it affordable. A lot of instances where fans don't renew their ST I don't think it's necessarily affordability, it's more value for money. What difference is £60 going to make without a change in fortunes or performance levels or entertainment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keep_the_faith Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Dont think we'd hit 5000 if they were priced at a one-er. Bit of a come down on last season but 240 is still around the price you SHOULD be paying at wigan and reading to see prem football, not league 1.

JohnnyPimp Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) I wonder if this has been released "by accident" away from the official site to gauge reaction? If not, and this is the big ST news, it's a little underwhelming unless there are plans in the parliamentary budget to allow the reclaim of VAT on lower league football tickets!

Twisbrogan Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 It's also on the Football League iOS app. Furman's an odd choice as he'll be in Africa anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue83 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Yes, also seen this video on the iPhone football league app - says what the original poster states as well as saying 'the managers' team next year will consist of youth and experience...

CD's Orange Heels Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Just watched it on the iPhone app. Defo shouldn't be on there yet as he talks about the Forest game in the past tense. Oops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimeblue Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 It's a great offer for those that want one... 5000!!!!! I can hear the disappointment at the sales already. Might add an extra 1000 but for those of us who don't think grown men should wear shirts.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisbrogan Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 It's great offer and a substantial saving. Of course it won't be enough for some that would moan that the sun is too hot/ gaseous/ faraway but great that the club continues to try. No mention of juniors but I'd quite happily give some of the saving back to a Latics For Life type scheme if one is running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Be delighted with any donations to laticsforlife really really appreciate that I'm hoping to knock up flyers for the club to give out on the scheme when people but there ST but I might have to fund that our own pocket or get freebie of someone Thanks again to you and everyone who has donated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see it on the iPhone app but can't play it as I'm not willing to give PTV, or whatever it is they're called now, my money. How professional it makes Latics look, as usual. And £240 for a season ticket is decent but really nothing remarkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How professional it makes Latics look, as usual. And £240 for a season ticket is decent but really nothing remarkable. I agree with you there. It's not a substantial enough discount to induce fans to return. Probably going to lose the club money if anything and make ST sales stagnate or even maintain the current trend of sales dropping.
