cheshire_red Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Great marketing ploy once again, was this as a result of a suggestion at last nights Fans Forum? The Friday one is great, the Tuesday not so as it is limited to under 16's!
PhatWill Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Surely thats the point though? Under 16's are unlikely to go to night games because of school so make it a quid to attract the nieche market.
Guest WillsbridgeRed Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 Not just that, on a night it's more likely "daddy" will take "junior" to thegame because of lack of busses, late finish ect
cheshire_red Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 Wycombe Tuesday night, Rushden Friday.
Percy Parrot Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 I just hope it works. Schemes like this often lose clubs money but are there as a "thank you" to fans. It CAN benefit the club too though, if people take it up. Let's hope they do because I think it would be great to boost the attendance and let the kids get in for a little less. I suggest people start putting word round. It will be interesting to see whether the Evening Post take as much notice of this as any problems in the East End. I would like to think we will have a Back Page splash a couple of days before each of the games- "City let kids in for £1" or "Quid-a-Kid returns to Ashton Gate"...doubt it. Prove me wrong, EP!

More like, "City encourage youngsters to join the hoards of hooligans at Ashton Gate with quid-a-kid scheme"
chalky Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 That is great to see the club have done this. They will lose money obviously because of it but it will attract a higher gate, thats loyalty to the fans!
