jorvik_latic Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 It's been said before that JD Sports shops are the obvious place, as the shirt sponsor. I was thinking about a shop opening in town and the infrastructure required to do it. There would have to be quite an outlay for tills etc, especially for Teamcard points. JD already has this set up so could be a viable option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordy Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Is this a stupid idea..... Getting individual people to go around selling tickets, who earn commission say 5-10% ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Still maintain this would have been a smart move: What would have maybe been a good idea was to set up some sort of partnership with Dale. They're at Exeter this weekend...the club could have said to them to make their fans aware of our deal...most Dale fans won't be making such a long trip and could get their football fix very cheaply just up the road. In return when we're at Brighton or whatever (can't be bothered to check Dale's fixtures), we could promote one of their fixtures. Just something along the lines of 'get youself down to the south coast but if the credit crunch is pulling you down then why not go along to BP/Spotland?'. To be honest, there would be no greater tribute to Ernie than for both of us to win promotion this year, let's support eachother (for one year only ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footy68 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Just been to get my Crewe and Udders tickets, there was a steady flow and ticket office reckon about 7500 Latics at the mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pity about the weather but there could be another 1000 or so with the Orient fans and our pay on the day lot. Looking like 8000 at least!!!

Scapegoat Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 7,500 Latics already? I'd say that is a result - another 100 from Orient and hopefully a few hundred pay on the dayers for Latics and we might get the 8,000 TTA and in particular Simon has mentioned. Would be good for them if they got the kind of response they are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch_KTF Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Is it £10 for Orient to to pay on the day too? Yep Orient Had a watch of Ling's Oldham preview on their 'World'. He appears to fear us and envies all of our strikers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy_Fent Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I know alot of my mates dont come to home games but they will go to away games as its a better atmopshere, i still dont agree with them especially as on saturday it would only cost them £2. Alot of them will just go to manchester during the day or go to the pub, and prefer to save their money to go on nights out. Club has to do something to appeal to the 16-25 age bracket i feel. I agree, the club tries to promote itself too much with this 'family club' tag, meaning the 16-25 bracket can at times feel unwanted by the club, a prime example being the 'student ticket' being for 16-19 year olds, what about people in their 2nd year at Uni onwards? My mate that I go with is a season ticket holder whilst also at Uni, he's going to have to do some saving to get one next season As for the lack of money at christmas issue, people like me are in a job where at this time of year they get a lot of tips and have more money than normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Yep Orient Had a watch of Ling's Oldham preview on their 'World'. He appears to fear us and envies all of our strikers. In the rarely wrong Chron, Ling says: “It will be a difficult game as I thought before the start of the season Oldham would do well because of the four good strikers they have. “Obviously there have been changes to the front line since then, but that is an area in which they are still particularly strong, especially with Lee Hughes one of their front men. “While we know it will be hard, we will not be going to Boundary Park in fear.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Advertiser forecast: Saturday Forecast: A shower Rain probability: 80% Temp High: 10°C / 50°F Temp Low: 4°C / 40°F Wind Strength: Moderate Breeze Wind Direction: West-South-West So 80% chance of a shower and 50°F - we could be sweating cobs with all the excitement!
