JamboAl Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 So there will be no flack flying my way for having that opinion then? No, JamboAl said I was wrong due to something AdamAnt said, that "JR is right there should be a voucher in the ST book". Someone pointed out there is a voucher in the ST book, and JamboAl somehow managed to turn that into me being wrong. Despite the fact I never even mentioned any voucher in any ST book at any point. I said you were wrong because you had inferred that they didn't look after the ST holders first and they did with the ?5 offer. Because your father and brother ended your hollow protest (I'm not renewing until we gwt a manager)by coercing you into buying a ST you had that privilege and now you can ALSO have 2 free tickets if you buy a top.

Sergio Garcia Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 They would be better offering season ticket holders cut price tickets for friends in my opinion. Jamborobbo is 100% correct in this respect. Like the two friends for a fiver voucher that your get when you purchase a season ticket. Attendances are down, its good in the run up to christmas to encourage people to buy the tops and come to the game. Maybe they might come along next week and the week after.

Boris Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 ah well, thats ok then. either way, you're paying 30 quid or whatever, and getting two tickets and a top for your money. Whilst as a ST holder, I had to pay regulare price for the game, plus 40 quid for a top. Sorry to be picky, but as a season ticket holder you are not paying the regular price per game as the season ticket reduce the cost per game. Well mine does anyway. I suppose this is the loyalty being repayed perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an existing ST holder you had 3 possible advantages 1. A ?30 discount - if you hadn't been such a man of principle. My a*se! 2. ?5 for 2 Cat B games - if you had 2 friends 3. 2 free tickets DUFC - if you want a top. Non ST holders didn't get the 1st 2 possible advantages Dear stalker, I know you like to keep track of my family history, but what does any of this have to do with the price of cheese? Dear pathetic victim, I could not give a sh*t about your family history, you really flatter yourself, but it is not wise with half the claptrap that you've posted on here to say anything about STs. You and your principles are too vulnerable.

Is that your family history? I keep bringing up your feeble worthless protest only when you bring up nonsense and make false accusations. The club did offer a ?30 discount that you didn't take up on principle (on which you later capitulated) and yet you slam the club, WRONGLY, for trying to maximise it's trading. I repeat - go back to post 9 (and 2)! A thoughtless and unwarranted attack on the club? Or a ST holder giving an opinion? Well it is thoughtless because they had considered ST holders first and unwarranted because what you said was incorrect. You are fully entitled to give an opinion, or nearly 20,000 of them in your case, but at least don't cry when someone pulls you up for being unfair or wrong. I guess it depends whether you think people are entitled to an opinion or not really. It depends on whether your opinion is fair and justified. As I said above you are entitled to 20.000 opinions if that is your inclination but don't be surprised if others have opposite viewpoints. They could be right sometimes.

At least then we have sold tickets for the whole second half of the season, rather than the short term option - giving away a load of tops just to try and fill the ground for one match only. I don't know why they would do that. It is unlikely that many extra sales will be gained from that promotion, as a free strip is unlikely to be incentive enough for somebody to by a season ticket. Those buying the season tickets would probably do so anyway, regardless. Plus, you're adding a cost per head marketing spend on each ticket (the cost of the strip), so you are paying for the promotion. However, the strip promotion is more likely to drive future sales as you are giving those who may have bought a strip anyway, free tickets to see a match in the hope that they will return. You're also not adding a cost per head marketing spend, as the seats would have gone unsold anyway. I suspect they have targeted the Dundee Utd match as its the biggest match outside the Old Firm that won't sell out and that we have a decent chance of winning, or it being a decent game. Therefore they hope that the sample will turn into returning custom. At the end of the day though, if you find it unfair that the promotion is only going to out to prospects and not loyalty, why not sell your seat for this match and buy a strip?
