Surprised they haven't thought about doing a Christmas raffle.
Surprised they haven't thought about doing a Pyramid scheme. |

The club is not going to be sustainable by upping ticket prices, reducing the price benefit of season tickets, catching the 100 people who use a child's ticket instead of an Adult, and/or slashing the player budget to fit the current income.
It would be pretty clear that very few EFL clubs are sustainable, so its quite a pipe dream anyway.
However if they are going to get closer to it, the only way forward is diversifying the clubs revenue streams, and that comes from things like the concert (i hope it works), but mainly the ground development with associated hotel/casino/housing etc. Dicking around with the small fry that Antony Hall lambasted on that interview is not going to make the difference.
Clem/Antony have done nothing so far to show the club is serious about development, probably because they are trying to sell.

Let's be honest. In what world will the people on the turnstiles give a fuck and check a ticket.Stood there in the pissing rain popping tickets on to bags they don't want any confrontation.
Car crash of a interview wasn't it, i just want someone to come out and say you know what this is a lot harder than we fucking thought and we are struggling here.
All we seem to get is oh everything is alright you are wrong when it clearly isn't

The last car crash interview was by Sando right, then they had to trot out Rob Angus afterwards to smooth it all over.
Nobody there to paper over this car crash is there. I genuinely wonder what Clem thinks about this interview, if he even cares.

FWIW from everyone that I speak to about STFC, those not involved with lower league clubs cannot believe that the club charges £27 a ticket, they assume it would be around £15-20
Crewe also charge £27. My brother in law goes to watch Ipswich which is £32. |

Crewe also charge £27.
So Crewe: £365 for early bird ST, £440 for late ST £27 x 23 games= £621 walk in. 621 - 365 = 256 . 256/27 = 9.48 FREE GAMES! 621 - 440 = 181. 181 /27 = 6.7 FREE GAMES! ======= Clearly the answer for us both is to reduce the walk in price. Then you get less FREE GAMES! |

Not watched the interview but sounds like another in a long line of amateur hours.
The 'free games' line seemingly aimed at long term, loyal supporters when you've got every dodgy Tom, Dick and Al Capone hanging about doing fuck all and getting free hospitality tickets to matches as well as god only knows what else is a very low blow.

I was surprised that in announcing that the stadium manager left that we were told that Chris van Roon had resigned from the Trust. Not sure that was the CEO of STFC's news to share

We went from having Angus as CEO, Hall as General Manager, and Dover as his junior. To Angus going and the other 2 getting bumped up, to now just having Hall.
Cut backs are extreme, they are doing everything they can to make the books look as good as possible in an attempt to sell the club.
I'm close to having had enough with it all.

You are not the only one. Close to attending away games only and seriously thinking about it. Put it this way if it was season ticket renewal today 3 would not renew here. Just wish they would all fuck off - had enough of the lies and incompetence. |

Agree Mate and word spreading fast. Let’s hope a sale is not that far away. |
