That would take a degree of 'thinking outside the box'...and 'initiative'.
Any news yet of the Pick n Mix scheme for 2014/15 ?

I tend to think clubs selling advance years tickets are in serious financial trouble. They tend to spend all the dosh in year one then are skint in year two and beyond. Who was it who borrowed a load of dosh in advance of match day sales a while back, Leeds ?..I think they got about 80p for every £1 so they could have the £ before the season started..
Risky business, bit like pay day loans.

I tend to think clubs selling advance years tickets are in serious financial trouble. But buying a season ticket regardless for how long it is for is exactly the same. Before all seater stadia were forced upon us I think it's fair to assume that every club relied on pay on the day revenue, now most club's home fans will consist of around 75-80% season ticket holders with pay on the day prices vastly inflated to make the season ticket prices look like fantastic deals. 20 years ago clubs had a regular income coming in on a steady basis throughout the season with their leanest time being the close season. Now what we have is most clubs getting the majority of their "match day" income during the close season then rely on walk up fans, away support and merchandising to give some small income stream throughout the rest of the season. I think with Blackpool you have a small club that's over achieved in recent years relative to its normal fan base. Due to that success it's attracted a lot of glory seekers who are now leaving due to lack of success and this ticket deal is Blackpool's attempt to try and hang on to some of that "new" support whilst they restructure the club in order to seek that success again, very similar to a certain club down the M606  |

They only have themselves to blame, Oysten and his dad before him should have put more of the prem money back into the club instead of creaming it off for other projects. Long term fans getting shafted again.

Just had a reply from them saying that details of the Pick n Mix will be announced in June around the time that the new fixtures are released. In other words when we know which division we'll be playing in. |

We did have a four year plan once..... but we got shafted after two years when uncle ken took over. That being just after we went bankrupt and reneged on paying millions of pounds to creditors and local businesses. Harsh as it is, the original HTFC no longer existed. Ruberry and Taylor were the ones who squandered that money and sold the offer to the fans. Unfortunately it happens a lot via schemes such as 'lifetime golf membership'. Never worth the risk. |

In other words when we know which division we'll be playing in. Sounds like we're going to end up with another complex P n M scheme...A fixed amount up front (depending on age and which stand you go in), then a supplement every game which you have to pay depending again on age, stand you go in and the category of the match.. which way the wind is blowing, your height/weight ratio...colour of hair (if any).... That should sell well suicide I'll likely not bother.. match Categories ? scrap them... they just keep the casual fans away (see leeds game earlier this season) |

I mostly only go to games now that have reduced entrance fee, away games or when I get a free ticket. I think I've only payed normal price for 2 home games in the last 5 seasons, MK Dongs in the play off semi and Barnsley last season. |

If we beat Brighton 5-0, I'll buy a season ticket regardless of the number of games I'll be able to attend. |
