Gemmill 49280 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Building a new stadium and whacking up prices. Let's hope that's the last lever they pull (ticket prices) cos there's plenty scope for improvement elsewhere before they start pricing people out of the match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, they can have loads of boxes, matchday experiences, expensive "premium" tickets and so on, without pricing out the local fans. Honestly, fill the majority of a new stadium with varied but affordable season tickets say 70%, have a portion of tickets that go on sale to members (15%), the rest can be sold at a huge premium to tourists (15%). Have the new stadium able to host concerts, NFL, and all that shite. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 7419 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 NUFC are struggling to fill the corporate spots now. I've had numerous cals this season to see if I was interested in x game and I noticed they discounted the prices for the Wolves game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter we can improve with sound negotiations, the former we can only really improve by building a new stadium. I think we could significantly improve matchday revenue by upgrading SJP without the burden of extra costs of a new stadium. The bigger gap we need to close is in regards to commercial income.

How much of that is corporate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the corporate, the average ticket price ( I wonder if Season ticket income is included in matchday?), the cost of pies, pints and so on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we can offer the same kind of matchday experience (and bring in the money that that kind of thing would demand) without a new stadium?

What do the likes of Anfield or Stamford Bridge really offer that a refurbished SJP can’t? Same goes for Dortmund who might have a much bigger capacity but also much cheaper tickets. The nostalgia of SJP is also a huge asset that can get monetised too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 440 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Unless there's a monumental fuck up by the English teams leading up to the Quarters, it's basically aim to finish top half of this 6 team mini-league.

Holden McGroin 7419 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Man City and Chelsea will come strong and potentially Villa if they get knocked out of CL soon. Bournemouth worry me, especially as they have an injury crisis and are still looking formidable. Should be an exciting run-in.

Optimistic Nut 440 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 A lot of pressure on Watkins. They won't have the luxury of Duran coming on for 20-30 minutes when they're chasing a goal now. They'll probably sign someone as back up but someone who's had Duran's impact is going to be hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 440 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Oh aye, they'll still have threats, but Duran has been a literal game changer first half of the season from the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no chance of Watkins going now but I look forward to a few months of pundits aghast at the sight of Villa having the temerity not to hand over one of their best players to Arsenal. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
