Roll up roll up....grab yourself a bargain : Tue Aug 01, 2023 6:22 am  

£12.50 a ticket for the last 5 home games at the sooper dooper Cherry Red Stadium.

Given this has been announced on Twitter (X?) and the club site as well as I exp3ct the newsletter....I'd be keen to see if it's promoted to anyone other than those likely to attend anyway!

Well I can assure you Oranjiboom, it has been promoted in at least one other place. There are still a few of us original Fulham FC masochists still turning up to games. On the Friends of Fulham message board there has been a thread about Fulham RL & spoken of quite fondly by Fulham fans who drifted away after 1984. So I posted the details there. Who knows if any of them will be intrigued enough to give it a go, especially as no Fulham connection but at least they have the opportunity.

Excellent work my crusty stetson wearing amigo.

Undermines the benefits of membership but I guess anyone who bought that knew there would be discounted tickets coming.

Once again they shoot themselves in the foot.... What is the point of buying a membership at the start of the season, when you know that just buying a ticket each week is going to turn out cheaper in the long run.....

It's odd because I don't question buying a membership / ST for a couple of other sports teams I go and see when that may not necessarily save me money. However, I do for the Broncos. I guess it is a reflection on the shoddy way I think the club is run. The strategy to assemble a sub par squad pre season and then try and bolster it to scrape into the playoffs is pretty disrespectful to fans.

If I can work out how to do it I’m off to pay £10 per game....in addition to the upfront fee. In the big scheme of things it’s all buttons and if it helps the club to have some early doors money from fans then I’m ambivalent about it but from a purely financial point of view Season tickets (as I like call them) make little sense which, my gut feeling tells me, is crazy. Oh well. Let’s see if we can put two halves of a performance together and have a good end of season run.

Wasn't there a comment by a senior club employee that the tickets for games at Ealing were too cheap? Three of us (wife, son and me) had bronze season tickets there and they were excellent value. Now none of us have a membership. I've got to five games this year and my wife and son one (Toulouse at Ebbsfleet). Looking at the £12.50 deal I'm quite tempted but there are weekend rail works on my route in September. Sunday may have been my last game this year as I have something else in mind for 20 August
