As it was when we gave them all a free season ticket with their club memberships and moved our games to Sundays to accommodate them-they still didn't turn up.

Leaflet drops, including printing and distribution to 250,000 homes would pretty much do your £50k.

Hey! You're using the wrong designer/printer if that's the case, 100k leaflets for about a grand or two plus a couple of hours to design so even 250k you'd have £45k+ change to spend on something else providing you could get volunteers to distribute.

I almost feel like doing this myself in the local area, even on 100k leaflets if you worked on getting 5% uptake you'd be on to a winner and smashing the 5k barrier!

I hope the weather improves

It would take a lot of volunteers to shift that lot

Personally pubs, shops and Railway stations are best imo as they are 'in you face' so as to speak.

Surely we should be aiming for a West London Train station. People from Waterloo are going all over the Capital.

All trains that leave Waterloo go through West London. You could very easily target the following towns/areas that are reachable to the Stoop.

All zone 1,2 and 3.
Basingstoke,Hook,Weybridge,Wandswoth,Putney,Barnes,Mortlake,Richmond,Hounslow,Isleworth,Feltham,Brentford,Whitton,Ascot,Bracknell,Staines,Ashford,Egham, ETC ETC ETC. Population of just those 3 train lines must be Millions.
