Vale hit their 5,000 target

[JOHNNY REEVES]

another thing both my boys play in football tornaments this time of year ,if they targeted some of these the word would spread.teams travel from all over with families watching them ,just think of the potential.

non supporters wont shell out over 200 quid for season tickets.it would be a waste of the clubs money printing leaflets etc.
anyone with even a slight interest in the club must now know of the situation at stfc?

[Colin Todd]

Can someone explain how port vale are running their scheme?

From what I've read they've got 5000 "pledges" not 5,000 sales currently

[neville w]

I think that they required 5000 pledges to then sell the ST's at the reduced price. I deduce from that that it'll be a one off payment for the full amount. Interesting to see how they ensure pledges become purchases.

I think we've gone about it in a better way, (from the club's POV). as we already have an upfront payment and a second variable instalment. No chance of cop-outs, or at least if it is it's at the individual's cost

anyone with a slight interest probably does which with our average attendance being just over 7000 last season take the away fans off you,d need eveyone who went to most games to buy a season  ticket.do you think huddersfield had 16000 fans who had a slight interest,they got them with every advertising  method they could.

I think the ploy "£99 "was good enough (or whatever the exact figure was)

huddersfield are flogging adult tickets for £100.£226 aint as tempting an offer

Johnny, FWIW I know there are plans to have a presence at some of the larger 6-a-side tournaments in the area this summer, although I'm not sure which atm.

they were hopeing to reach the record 14000 sales from the 70,s by last friday.they sold over 16000 by that deadline so now are selling them at the same price for 1 more week.They targeted towns each time further away from huddersfield with advertising ,do you think they have wasted money?

Not our experience when we did the pub crawl at all. As I've said before there's lots of people who do have "a slight interest" but who don't necessarily religiously read the Adver sports pages and/or internet forums. It's people like that that the marketing over the summer is being aimed at

[JOHNNY REEVES]

pauld good to hear,a lot of people attend these events.

but we,re going for 6000 ,they have 10000 more than that already i don,t think if it was £100 we would sell out ,more probably some would say it should be £50.
