Start doBig deals on blocks of tickets, where then is the encouragement to buy a season ticket at the start of the season?

No one could foresee this fixture pile up at this time of season, it couldn't have come at a worse time really . There was a lot of goodwill towards the club from the fans due to the good home form and cup run. I'd have been inclined to tap into that and try and get a few more through the turnstiles at a notoriously tough time of year.

But I think the argument about season ticket holders getting upset about ticketing deals is a hollow one, we all want to see the ground busy and if the occasional deal or BOGOF is implemented then fair enough I say. I'm very happy with my ST price, it probably saves me £60 per season on walk up prices and as I hardly ever miss a home game thats good value.

As a season ticket holder I would not object to a deal due to exceptional circumstances this season.  If it becomes a regular occurrence it would be detrimental to season ticket sales going forward.

My thoughts exactly.

I create YouTube videos (BUFC/FM/CM 01-02), and stream Football Manager on Twitch as BostonUnitedFM.

An ideal solution would be a mini discount. Say a book of 4 tickets for the next 4 home games.  The cost being for the price of three. This would give the club advance payment and ensures a good gate for a cold Tuesday night. Just an idea.

Bloody hell someone is listening ;D
