Yeah, I remember the name but don't remember seeing him play. Signed in 2013 by Appleton according to wiki.

That will be front and centre on any future season ticket promotion.

Bun fight alert.

I didn't.

You don't know what my figures take into account. I was providing an average for illustrative purposes. Don't presume you know what I'm thinking.

It never crossed my mind, but it has now Steve😁

I'm glad someone gets it!

I know that's why he doesn't do it, I've already said that. But his justification for it was bullshit. And that's why he's out of touch. Waggott Out.

And Waggott said the reason we aren't doing it is because the low sales of end-of-season matchday ticket offers PROVE that reduced prices would not equate to increased ST sales. It's nonsense, out-of-context nonsense, that PROVES nothing of the sort. Player sales were not mentioned in his justification for not reducing ST prices. And the point I was making with the above figures is that if you reduce prices and increase sales (like Bolton) it doesn't follow you reduce revenue. Again, nothing to do with player sales.

Again, that's irrelevant to the point I'm making. I'm talking about ST sales/revenue in isolation. 9000 x £400 = £3.6m 14000 x £250 = £3.5m Add in extra sales through food, merch etc and the club hasn't lost anything.

Venky's didn't sell because, presumably, they were happy to cover the losses. That's got nothing to do with Waggott choosing not to lower ST prices even though it's quite conceivable he could have generated the same revenue from doing so as he generates from current ST prices.

Then he's not the right man for the job, which fundamentally is the point. I agree, he daren't take the plunge to lower prices for the reasons you stated, but his justification for not doing so rings hollow. He said somewhere recently (FF minutes?) that the lack of take-up for lower-priced ticket offers at the end of the season proved reducing ST prices wouldn't attract buyers (or words to that effect). That is clearly nonsense. He is out of touch and out of ideas. It's time for him to go.

I'm sure there's a Championship thread!

I was listening to the end of season podcast on here and someone on there made the point that they knew people who weren't renewing due to price. It's a huge issue. It's important, therefore, to know why loyal fans are being priced out, and whose decision it is to price them out.

It's a Q for the fans forum. Who sets ST prices? Not who signs them off, who decides ST prices?

If he is responsible for ST price-setting, and Venksters just sign it off because they trust him, then he's the problem. And considering he was the man 'driving' (his words iirc) the proposal/sale of Brockhall it's a bit of a step-down to be having to get sign-off on a one-off match ticket offer!

Who sets season-ticket prices?

You said he was insignificant.

It's a competitive league. There will be 15+ clubs who think they've a chance of the play-offs when the season kicks off. Some 'big' resourced clubs will underachieve, some 'small' clubs will overachieve. Same every year. For the clubs coming down it will be how they adapt. If Leeds, Leicester and Soton can't offload their high earners and bring in average managers they'll struggle.

The CEO needs to be accountable, regardless of the owners.

The same is said every year. Nothing to fear.

They do, they just don't have a clue how to do it.
