2013-14 Season Ticket

Southend have just announced their prices for next season [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (£350 since you ask) which is a price freeze if you buy early enough. If you were Argyle would you announce a similar deal now to get people to buy their STs before we get relegated and at what price would you pitch the offer? I think I'd go for £250 given the uncertainty that hovers over us to induce early buyers, then a price freeze compared to this season, then a small (10%ish) increase for those who leave it until the last minute. I'd also include the addition of all home cup-ties as a further incentive.

What's the average price in the Blue Square?

Anyone would be nuts to by an Argyle one right now whatever the discount they offer. They have nothing to sell them on the back of. No one is going to believe 'going for it' or 'biggest budget' or 'stay off the pitch and we will buy a striker' type rhetoric.

Probably not much less than it is in league 2. Don't go expecting any cheap days out if we get relegated. I've picked Telford United at random and their tickets are priced at £15 each.

In reply to the OP given the position we're in the deal would have to be pretty bloody good to get anyone to part with their money now. I just don't know what would convince someone to do it...?

Buy one get one half price?
Win a night with Lee Jameson?
Spend a day with Director Peter Jones and get free use of his multi's
An upgrade maybe..? in terms of hospitality?
Pay for it interest free over 18 months?
50% reduction on 2014-2015 season ticket if we win promotion next season..?

If they dont lower them they are bigger fools than i give them credit for. They wont match or better this seasons sales given the football that has been on show. Only way they might do it is if JS has a strong finish to the season and signs the longer deal and brings in one or two big name players to excite the fanbase funded by brent.

It does not matter how much the tickets are for next season, here in this household
(4 of us) will not be putting money into a club run by these puppets. I think Mr Brent is in for a shock

He doesn't care. The club will be run by more volunteers from the tent and will be more village than the eternal avivafests. Get the buckets ready !

and the players will be part time, that's already been hinted at!

I can't remember who it was but someone mentioned it in the same breath as saying that it wouldn't be the end of the world if we were relegated, it was one of the usuals on pasoti.

The Grandstand will be being closed pending redevelopment, so get your ST early to ensure your place.

As a sweetener the Directors Box will be relocating to blocks 10-14. Renew now and be guaranteed a seat in the DB with all the other very important people...and their guests.

we sure have some dimwitted fans

What the f*** is wrong with Argo some 'fans'. Wouldn't be the end of the world if Argyle were thrown out of the FL? Would be happy to see Argyle go part time pro? These w*****s clearly love brent more than they do Argyle. In fact I think most of pasoti is sexually attracted to brent.

I hear a soclisitors letter hitting your doormatt

For the first time in nearly 30 years, I couldn't guarantee buying a season ticket for next season, no matter how much it is.

Depends entirely on what happens during the summer,presuming Argyle stay in the league.If Sheridan is still in charge and is given a bit of scope to really change the squad and bring in the players that he wants,then i probably would get another ST.If another bunch of non league no hopers,injury victims and rejects is brought in, then no way.Certainly won't be falling for the blurb next year-action must speak far louder than words this time and i'll bide my time to wait and see if the club are genuine about wanting to make progress.

I haven't had an ST for 2 years, and I'm unlikely to renew due to some of the scum who now infest our club.

I always take such remarks as a code for 'I have no life and would accept any dross'.
Every time we are threatened with relegation the tub thumping of 'we will bounce straight back' honestly apart from 1995-96 when have we ever done that ?

Is this any different from someone who would welcome 'liquidation'?

as a business bloke (?), i put my prices up when the going gets bad. this covers any customers that dont renew, ensuring the same income with less punters.

telford appear to be rather on the cheap side in the bsp, £18-21 the norm, rather like good old division 4
