robboman Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Sorry for another thread, just curious how many people wouldn't attend because of the previous ownership and who might attend games under the new ownership Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just felt it was certain fans sole reason for not attending. Ive done a poll on twitter and whilst not many have voted, 75% have said they'd come back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laticsmarra Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Difficult to say from a poll .Most of those who have completely lost interest wouldn't see the poll to respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayItLivo Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 The amount of people who don’t attend as a boycott to Corney is minimal. The majority of stayaways lost interest because we’ve been in this division 20 years and have only had two promotion attempts in that time. The only way to bring those fans back is to show some long term progression I.e getting promoted or at least a having a few cracks at the playoffs.

Midsblue Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Depending on which division we're in, this summer should be the catalyst to boost crowds. AL needs to secure a showcase name or two to demonstrate his intent. Get them early, generate excitement and parade them in line with ST price release. If possible, provide a financial incentive to boost the crowds - - Discounted kid ST if a parent/adult ST bought at same time - STs at £x for the season but for every 10 points the club secures (or goals scored) then each fan signed to the scheme agrees to paying the club £y by DD contractually up to a certain limit. Achieving 50 points, the fan has paid back to the standard discounted price of the ST. 60-70 points, they've paid the standard full price. 80+ points they've paid slightly more that full price but for that points return I'm sure all fans would happily pay a little extra as it's reflecting product on the pitch.

Bit too complicated, needs something simple like Burnley did, get promoted and free ST next season or something along those lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 (edited) My guess is that the number who 'stayed away ' because of ownership, as the question implies, can be numbered on the fingers of very few hands. Most are driftaways rather than stayaways. Oops, been said already Edited February 8, 2018 by Dave_Og Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostofcecere Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Watching Latics for many is just a habit as there is very little to enjoy for such a long periods. Once that habit is broken, it takes something fairly spectacular to get people back, I saw it happen with the cup run and the following successful season in the league that started in 1989. There’s no quick fix, it’s just going to take time I’m afraid, if it even happens at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
