But this technique would stop waiting surely, and actually encourage people to buy and tell others to buy? You pay the full price to start with, then encourage more people, friends, family, newbies to buy as well in order to reach the discounted price. Which the difference, if the required number of tickets is sold, is simply reimbursed. I certainly wouldn't be waiting, I'd be there buying and telling everyone else I know to be buying to get to the target - as long as its a sensible target to reach in order to receive the discounted price of course.

Yeah i get the concept, and its a good one....but what limit would fax be able to gamble on before they actually ended up with less income than what they would have done if they had just done normal prices?

my season ticket this year was £140 ish (free corp meal inc) good deal i thought!,

but this early bird offer didnt get that many more commiting.

the club need to think of new ways to get people commiting their money now.

the thing is fax have probably 1000 season ticket holders that would buy whatever price they are (within reason) its the other 8-900 that come to games everyweek we need to get buying them.

I heard of even other club supporters buying the Bradford one as for £60 it was worth it to them as they visited the ground once or twice anyway plus if your teams on the box Fri or Sat you can go along and watch Bradford on the Sunday (even if you can`t bear to watch the full match).

thought that had already been agreed 10 teams in our league next season. 2 down 1 up. and if crusaders not in our league then 2 up. This will change the following season to 12 teams being in our league?

We cannot compete with Huddersfield as Ken Davy chucks a cool £1 million at them EVERY YEAR how can you compete with that?
They are still having to 'buy' fans = how sad this is what RL has become this a top 3 club playing good rugby too!
I would go for an £80 season ticket if 200 sign up for it, worth a try.
