Amazing how we have all these heads yet not a single fucking braincell between them.

I'd love to know how much we pay our head of marketing position. It's a very well paid job in a normal organisation, but here I bet its way under the industry average, hence we end up with monkeys, or nobody.

Season Ticket Estimate

Latest: 8,792 (+15)

Notes:

  • The estimate is based upon the total number of saleable seats to home supporters (18,189), minus the amount of "blocked out" seats and available (sold) seats.
  • (+xx) represents the difference in season ticket sales from the previous estimate (usually 24 hours).
  • 588 seats are marked as unavailable (sold), but are not saleable due to being cordoned-off or reserved for those requiring front row access. These are therefore excluded from the season ticket estimate.

£45k tops is my bet, less than any decent tradesmen.

Seems like the last few years of crawling over the 9k mark.

Why the hell did Waggot put these ridiculous phase 2 and 3's in place? 

Had he not, or in the very least extended the EB till the end of July we'd be seeing well over 11/12k sold now.

On the back of an awful season, the new Sky TV deal, majority of fixtures rearranged, player sales, no incomings, ladies reports etc I feel being a Blackburn Rovers supporter under Venkys/Waggot is as tough as it gets.

I get the club needing to get funds in quickly (sad as that is) but why not get them on sale in March like plenty of other clubs and leave them on sale at the same price, come what may.

Some will leave it until the last minute, but surely it is swings and roundabouts, if some funds come in 3 months early.

We’d have sold a few more if early bird had been extended but no way would we have been selling well over 11/12k at £350-£450 a pop, the phase 1 adult prices were still too dear regardless of time on sale.

Disagree, a full month of potential renewable/newbies, another couple of paydays in a financially difficult time especially for families. 

We've sold 9k, at least 2k more would break the 11k barrier.

No chance we’d be breaking the 11 or 12k barrier just by extending the early bird to the end of July, the vast majority that wanted them at £350-£450 got them. Of course go through another couple of paydays and we’d have sold a few more. But not thousands more as it just isn’t an attractive entry price for another second division relegation battle with half the games on Sky.

So perhaps 10k+ instead of crawling to 9 thousand and something.

They could've hit 10k and for the first time in years and that was a target Waggot was trying to get back to, although probably because it kicks in a sales bonus !

However it seemed achievable a week or two ago but like everything else it disappeared in a puff of a corporate cigar. Classic Waggot though rather than shift 10 thousand at a token discount rate he'll sell 8000 then hope to screw another thousand at top whack to recoup a fraction of discount.
