100th league game for us tommorow. £1.3 million, absolutely shafted Bradford there. Which was nice Plus the £2m we pay Bradford for every minute he is in West Yorkshire remember. Dearer me. The same old drivel again, eh. I don't know how many times we need to tell you, but we DO receive money through add-ons. Everyone knows this. It WILL rise to £2m - and a board member only confirmed a few weeks ago that we had currently received £1.6m from yous. We also receive £50k once he reaches 15 goals. He's doing well, just like we all knew he would. I hope he continues to do well, and some club comes in with a whopper deal. Given we have a lucrative 20% sell on clause, negotiated by the one and only David Baldwin (now at Burnley), it's likely you'll only sell Nahki for £5m+. That's a cool £1m+ in our coffers. So, in all, we could be looking at receiving £3m+ for a player at the time who had only proved himself in L2 and four months in L1. Not to shabby IMO. He'll return to City at some point anyway, he loves he club. |

Bradford were getting between 7500 and 8500 last time in lge 1 when charging full prices, so it figures that if they were charging the same now that's what they'd be getting. Town were averaging considerably more during the same period. We even averaged 13500 in the 2005-06 season and even averaged 10500 when we were last in the bottom division. More than what Bradford averaged in the bottom division despite having cheap season tickets and not actually giving the proper attendances. No it doesn't, you absolute retard. How can you compare the club in its current financial state to back then when we were riddled in debt. Nonsensical. |

Can you tell me why you think we'd average 7,500-8,000, when we have averaged more than that during the worst period in the clubs history (2004-2007)? Then, also in debt. Now, we post profits. If it wasn't for that cup run, we would've probably won the league. because you'd have been charging the same huge amounts other clubs charge these days. The glory seeking fans who were still there from the prem seasons would have gone and your fan base would have got truly sick of being stuck in the bottom 2 divisions after a dozen years. You might be getting 13 or 14000 show up now when its so cheap (lets not pretend its the gate figures given out) , but double the cost and add another £100 on top and you'd be getting 7500-8000. Posting profits is great. Most clubs could if they pay low wages, never pay a transfer fee and sell their best players ( and have 2 or 3 lucrative cup runs thrown in). If you do go up this time, you'll have to invest heavily in the team or next season will be a long tortuous one for you. Will your owners finance that ( german or otherwise) or will ST prices have to go up considerably? If the fans still pay then fair enough- its a strategy thats worked, but will a bloke who takes his 2 kids and is used to paying £149 a season to do it, be up for paying over £500 instead? You'd probably have made the play offs without the cup run. 1 in 4 chance from there. Yet another post with absolutely zero substance. What makes you think there's 13,000 attending now? Do you have proof of this, or is it based on the fact that when you announce attendances at 10k, there's actually 7,000 there (ala Reading)? If anything, our recent games looked to be more than 18k home fans there, but obviously you know better than me. For what it's worth, our attendances are bang on. I'd post pictures but I really can't be bothered. So, what you're actually saying is that because we launched a fantastic and very successfully ticketing incentive, this is the only reason why we have decent crowds? Well, no shit Sherlock - someone get this guy a stick of rock. Of course our crowds increased. We consistently sold over 10,000 season tickets during 6 years of dross in L2. I don't care what you say, not many clubs could achieve that. We've slowly built our fanbase back up again thanks to affordable football (is that really a bad thing, given you're attempting the same scheme next season). I don't really understand your point. You make it out like if we upped season tickets to £400, we'd sell virtually none and average 4,000. In 2006/2007, the year we were relegated from L1, we sold 5,500 at £350-£400 after two relegations/admins in 3 years - and averaged just under 9,000. I don't think that was a bad figure given how wank we were on and off the pitch. A fair comparison is when Hudders were relegated from the same league 2003! You averaged 9,500 in a relatively new ground. What's the difference? The new media deal and FA grant would ensure all championship clubs will receive circa £7m additional turnover next season. We currently turn over circa £6m, and if we were cutting our cloth accordingly, our playing budget wouldn't be too dissimilar to yours this season. With regards to the German takeover, who knows what's gonna happen. One fact that is plainly obviously for everyone to see is, you're looking over your shoulders as a club, and we're very much back on the up. |

Without the cup runs you'd have probably gone bust. Without the half price tickets and freebies for kids, you'd average about 7500-8000. not bad for a club at your level, but nowt to boast about, especially for a one club city the size of bradford. If you want to  your pecker about, it should shrivel up a bit when you consider Huddersfield have had bigger averages than City for about 80% of our respective histories, including half the past 20 years during which you';ve been in top flight and reached a cup final and been letting fans in for half price. This despite Bradford being a vastly bigger place then Huddersfield. Can you tell me why you think we'd average 7,500-8,000, when we have averaged more than that during the worst period in the clubs history (2004-2007)? Then, also in debt. Now, we post profits. If it wasn't for that cup run, we would've probably won the league. |

And here's the irony, boys and girls; an accusation with zero substance from user who's username is made up of numbers. If you want to go down this road, then that's fine by me. It's only fair if you take into account our averages over recent years and the issues surrounding the club at that time. I'll give it a go; Huddersfield - '97 - 12,175 '98 - 12,145 '99 - 12,976 All second division - full paying prices - and with the hype of your new ground. Pretty shite if you ask me. Bradford City - '97 - 12,925 '98 - 15,564 '99 - 15,298 Then of course we had two years in the Prem, of which I'm not sure if you've seen before? '00 - 18,093 '01 - 18,511 Back in the Champ, and still averaging more. '02 - 15,489 '03 - 12,501 '04 - 11,777 (relegation :I ) Then, this is when all the little pups got excited. With massive debts of £36 million around this time, little Hudders became alright again on the pitch. please note. debts covered by the owner of the club. We own our own training facilities, do you? Thought not. The money situation was so bad at the beginning of the season wern't you going to sell up and move to odsal? thought so. Ah yes, covered by the owner. Now wouldn't that be handy for most clubs to have a money man to springboard you through the leagues and very kindly cover any losses. Bloody Nora, I'd forgotten all about the potential ground move to Odsal. Because this wasn't at the beginning of this season, you may need to bare with me with this one. 4 years is a long time in football. I think you're referring to the smokescreen of which was that we could no longer afford the rent at Valley Parade, of which then opened up negotiations with Gordan Gibb to consider lowering the £1.2m p/a rent. Odsal move was NEVER going to happen, little Pup. Gordan Gibb rightly refused to lower the rent, purely because he doesn't like Julian Rhodes. This then prompted the club to sell the club store for £2.3 million in 2012, thus' lowering operating costs by £600k per season. Mind you, since then we've had promotions, cup finals and transfer fees to rely on - not to mention the 15 televised fixture in the last couple of years. We do alright - and we'll post a profit shortly for the 7th season in a row....... |

How often do you type Bradford and attendances into Google? Sad for a girl to be so obsessed Queeny. Lets have a look at City's average crowds in the 70s and early 80s, and the last time you paid full price for a ST - snigger 2007 8.694 2006 8.265 2005 8.839 1984 4.203 1983 4.867 1982 5.391 1981 2.858 hahaha 1980 5.774 1979 3.924 1978 5.103 1977 5.630 1976 2.916 hahaha 1975 3.191 hahaha 1974 3.797 1973 3.498 And here's the irony, boys and girls; an accusation with zero substance from user who's username is made up of numbers.

'00 - 18,093 '01 - 18,511 Back in the Champ, and still averaging more than yous. '02 - 15,489 '03 - 12,501 '04 - 11,777 (relegation :I ) Then, this is when all the little pups got excited. With massive debts of £36 million around this time, little Hudders became alright again on the pitch whilst we went the other way. Still, with very compeitive playing budgets, relatively new stadia, promotions and a big away end to bolster the home average, average attendances unfortunately never broke 15,000 - something we have a achieved 5 times in the last 20 years. And seeing as though we're singling out averages from the dark ages, how about this; 1979: 3,649 lolz bantz |

Key to beating Sadford seems to be to take Nathan Clarke and his long throws out of the game, as that seems to be how Sadford play these days. Takes me back to the good old days here at town when we didn't have 2 quid to rub together. If in doubt, HOOF!!! Nonsensical drivel. Huddersfield Town - Total Football - Barca Barca Baaaarca |

Little pups bleating on about attendances again. Yes, Town do average more (barring this season); but tell me, just how many away fans attend on average? I'm fairly sure I worked it out only a few weeks ago that if you actually took true home support into consideration, we've had more fans attending home fixtures for the past 2-3 seasons - all that in a league that boast great fixtures - such as the Champ? 11k-12k there instead of 18k: Come off it - our attendances weren't a true reflection to bums on seats back in 2007-2011, however, since then our attendances have been bang on. You just can't face the fact that we average more HOME fans than what you do. Instead of capping our away end (to accommodate for our OWN fans), we should build a nice big away end for away teams to fill and thus' boost the overall average attendance like you little terriers. Ruff ruff!!!!! I really don't give a shit how many fans you do or don't get. I'm just happy I don't live in Bradford or have to visit it to watch my team play. Biggest shit hole in West Yorkshire. And that's saying something. Of course it is, Andy. |

Utter shite ...Barnsley sold out when in prem of course we would all the woodworkers from the affluent areas like shepley etc would buy season tickets you wouldnt be able to get a ticket for any game it would take off massive if we got to the promised land and the season card/ticket price was reasonable,,,,folk in Kirklees just waiting for a decent footballing prem side to get behind and ditch their prem telly teams  First season maybe, but if Town survived it would soon drop off. Third season of regular defeats, ridiculous kick off times/days, West Bromwich at home on a Monday night in early December, 15000 would be pushing it. Even massive Bradford couldn't fill their "stadium" in the premier league, not even for the visit of Leeds, 18000 crowd, capacity 24000 at the time. Except, Valley Parade held no more than 18,300 in the Premier League. Capacity increased to 22,000 for the last 4 games of our PL reign, and once the main stand upper was considered finished, capacity was confirmed at 25,136. |

The season before Bruce took charge of us, Bradford won automatic promotion to the Prem with pretty much identical attendances to ours in 99/00. It's this theory that Huddersfield is somehow different to other areas that just doesn't stack up to me. I don't get it and nothing I see suggests we're in any way less (or more) supportive than other areas/teams. I think people are looking at teams AFTER having achieved success and getting higher attendances than ours and asking why we aren't... and it's because we haven't achieved the same as those others with genuine promotion challenges from this division, IMO. Except the year your refer to (98/99), the Kop was being rebuilt at Valley Parade - subsequently, the capacity was reduced significantly. A lot of the games were sell outs! |

Probably sold no where near 18000. Giving under 11`s away to anyone that buys an adult one to inflate the figures. " well, you might as well have a free one for an under 11`s sir. ". Why not give yourself a bit more room and have a guaranteed empty seat next to you rather than some sweaty fat bloke. Just give credit where credit it due, every other club is - the vast majority being very commendable. Instead, you believe that at least 17,000 kids have taken up the offer for a free ticket, thus' not being financially viable to the club. 18,000 SOLD!!!!! |

U11's go free with a full paying adult - now there's an incentive within itself. It amazes me how you think making football affordable doesn't reap any Benifits. Read this thoroughly, and please, take it in. We've had a steady improvement since PP took charge. We've beaten numerous Premier League clubs over recent seasons We operate in the black - of which only a few clubs do - and YOURE not one of them. We make a profit year on year by cutting our cloth accordingly. Of course you pay more in wages, I'd expect you to. We receive £365k per season from the FA and other income streams for being a L1 club. You receive circa £5m per season for being a Championship club. I'm not sure what you turn over per season - but even with our cheap, giveaway tickets, we turned over £7m last season. Stick £5m onto that, and you've gotta playing budget of which is very similar to yours. Makes you wonder what we'd turnover if our ST's went up in price. But of course, then we'd only average 6,000 according to some deluded folk on here. What people have said, is that you would average about 8000. Not 6000. The logic begin this, is that, that is what you were averaging between 2004 and 2007, before you started with the cheap season tickets, whereas we were averaging between 10500 one season and 13500 when we finished 4th. Are you REALLY using seasons 2004-2007 to gauge what we would average NOW if we charged full price? We'd been relegated twice in quick succession and had just come out of administration for the second time (with debts equating £33 million). We're a completely different club now. And it's pointless going back to the last time we were in L1 prior to 2004-2007, purely because we hadn't seen the Premier League at that point. Until your club has graced the Premier League, you'll never really understand what it does to ones fanbase - it increased ours tenfold. ...and why do some still refer to the word 'bragging'? Who's bragging, because it certainly isn't me. I thought I'd have a quick peak at your forum a number of days ago, and stumbled across this thread. There were points raised in this thread that I didn't agree with, hence why I have put forward my opinion - after all, isn't that the sole purpose of a forum? Not ones have I knowingly bragged! I'll say one thing though, just short of 18,000 ST's sold as of today. Would Town ever sell that in L1 at £150 a ticket, would they buggery. Toddle pip. |

They were £100, as in 100 years. They sold over 16500, fact. They were the cheapest ones, ranging up to £200. You're giving yours away to under 11s and therefore making very little money, so if you're happy about that more fool you. As someone said, its a noble thing to do, but its not the way to do it. All it does is give people like yourself the opportunity to put other clubs down who don't sell as many season tickets as your huge club. It has no other benefits, which is why after 9 years you're still doing them. We are paying on average about 2-3 times more and that's not taking into consideration the freebies you give. 9 years of cheap season tickets and FINALLY they are cheap enough to beat your little puppy friends in the average attendance stakes that means so much to you. You haven't sold 17000. 17000 people have purchased a season ticket. Alot less have paid the £149 that they are set at, so big wow. How the Hell are we supposed to be impressed at that? U11's go free with a full paying adult - now there's an incentive within itself. It amazes me how you think making football affordable doesn't reap any Benifits.

There was just under 4,000 fans paying in on the gate last season. In addition, we stopped counting ST holders into the attendance back in the 11/12 season. Our crowds are true to numeric number. I'm pretty sure we still count season tickets in the attendance as, technically, they have bought a ticket. I believe it's the flexi cards that aren't counted in the official attendance figure as they still need to buy a ticket for each match. Exactly - and with 9,500 ST holders last season, we averaged 13,200 (circa 600 away fans on average). 17,100 sold - club aiming for 18,000 by the end of the day. Oh, and to the chap who mentioned your centenary year, your tickets were £99 and you sold 16,000 - pipe down. |

Basically what you've just said their is rubbish and we're not mocking you for making it affordable. We are mocking you're supporters, or some of them for seeing it as an excuse to say, oh look we get fantastic crowd and we're only in league 1. The amount youre bringing in throught the turnstiles must be no more than your average league 1 team, which means you miss out on players such as Jon Stead to leage 2 Notts County. Oh and we averaged 5821 and 5630 in 88-89 and 89-90 (only took me 30 seconds to look that up) so don't know where you got your 3600 from. Making things up again, I presume. Not really worth debating if you're gonna do that. And just one final thing, which I think will end the debate and bring this to a conclusion, you say that we conveniently forget that we ge t higher away followings. Ok, yes we do, between 700-900. Can you now conveniently remember that your crowds are bolstered by very cheap season tickets. If you can do that, that's it, end of debate. We both agree. I'm sure the 1500 or whatever flexi cards that were sold, and counted as attending whether there or not, made up for the lack of championship away crowds. All smoke and mirrors to try and desperately look relevant in the grand scheme of things... There was just under 4,000 fans paying in on the gate last season. In addition, we stopped counting ST holders into the attendance back in the 11/12 season. Our crowds are true to numeric number. |

So a few hundred more away fans in the championship? Didn't I just say that. Ours were more expensive in reality. They were a minimum of £100 and a maximum of £200. Yours are a minimum of free and a maximum of £149. Its a good offer for your fans, so well done to your chairmen, but its a bit sad when you see this as a reason to say, oh look we get better support than the dog botherers and they're in a higher division. It's utter bollocks. Nine seasons of cheap season tickets and you've finally made them cheap enough to get higher attendances than us. Compare your crowds when you were last charging normal prices and compare them to what we were getting. Circa 8000 compared to 5 figure gates and both in league 1 for 3 seasons between 2004 and 07. Anyway I hope the under 11s enjoy their handouts, before they get bored of watching an average league 1 team, without a pot to piss in. But those "oh, a few hundred more" fans meant that you averaged more in terms of averages - isn't that the sole pointer of discussion - or are you doing what typical and convenient for a pup and moving goalpost when suiting fit? You ramble on about our ST's being £149, and right you are - but you fail to take into consideration that we've sold 700 tickets in the Bantams Bar - and a further 800 tickets in the Suites in the main stand at £110 more. So that's 1,500 tickets (minimum) at £259....cheap? Right you are. We do sell out all 17 boxes annually at just over £10,000 per season, but again, in stark reality we do give those away too....but that's just between me and you! Shhh! Thing is, we can all troll back through history and pick out a year where a club averaged X amount (like when you averaged 3,600 in 1989), but its all about what counts currently. Try not to worry about the free U11 handouts, I'm sure all 1,500 of them will thoroughly enjoy their outing alongside their full paying parent, and whilst football clubs in general rely heavily on success to build support (of which you'll only really encounter in the Prem - so the latter will apply to the minority), clubs outside of the Premier League will still charge ridiculous amounts of moula to entice new supporters to come and watch their stagnating team. What a fanatic incentive. Now, take a step back and evaluate that for just one moment, and think again the next time you mock a league club for making football affordable. |

Yes the extra few hundred who turn up to the championship games compared to league 1 will bolster our attendances. Can you "sell" the same amount we did when we did cheap season tickets? If not, why the fuck not? Bradford is a far bigger place. By the way, how many have you actually sold? Surely a few thousand have been given away. The average away following at most Championship grounds is circa 1,500 - compare that the the 638 we had last season, and you'll see what I'm getting at. Bradford is a big place, you're right. What a clever little sausage you are. Believe it or not, we haven't given any away (however, £149 is a steal price). As per my original post, we've sold just under 16,500....and that's with a 1,000 ST holders from last season yet to renew. We'll sell around 17,500 - so yes, more than what you sold even ours are slightly dearer. |

Just under 16,500 sold - 4 days remaining!
Will the average crowds be bolstered by decent Championship away support again next season?

www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/football/bradford/exclusive-buoyant-bradford-eye-replay-victory-to-clear-debt-1-7036794A good read and perhaps how knackered you lot would be without ur cup runs and u may well be in the black as u say thats fine ,but do u want improvement for your team year in year out or u just happy giving out cheap season tickets HOPING for cup runs because they wont last.As i thought u may wanna pay little bit more as we have for season tickets invest more in team and push on as after u got kicked out of cup last year your manager even blamed on tiredness,now as a fan that must frustrate u as it comes to PROMOTION or CUP RUN ...and the first pup to refer to a bollocks article about our finances. You'll find that none of our fanbase believes for one moment that we're reliant on cup runs? Afterall, it's been two in the last two years - what about the previous 5 years where we were languishing in L2 and still operating in the black? It's hardly cup run or promotion, is it? Promotion and majour cup final only in 2013 alone. |

You do know the seasons finished? And we did stop up- by some way. And you didn't go up, by some way. We may meet next season in one of the cups, who knows. The FA cup or the League cup, but not the JPT as we don't play in that one. Seriousl question. Do you think you'll stay up next season? |

I'm gonna bite. We've been in the black since 2007 - and announce profits every season, whilst your chairman pummels millions in every year just to keep you afloat. It's a fantastic incentive that should be applauded, not scoffed at, irrespective of what income we receive from It. Oh, and spare me the numerous media artcles stating that we're x amount over budget every season, it's a bloody smokescreen, of which Lawn has repeated since his arrival in 2007. Don't care! See you next season, if you're lucky enough to stop up. |

your pecker about, it should shrivel up a bit when you consider Huddersfield have had bigger averages than City for about 80% of our respective histories, including half the past 20 years during which you';ve been in top flight and reached a cup final and been letting fans in for half price. This despite Bradford being a vastly bigger place then Huddersfield.
