Should have got hold of a copy of the TNT magazine as I have just ordered my ticket and been charged £23 . However, it is my season ticket seat bang on the halfway line. Will be bringing 4 others hopefully, 3 of whom are new to the Stoop, let's hope they want to come again.

Going to buy mine on the day and hoping to bring a fair few along.

Nice, going to buy some tickets mid week. Will get the TNT special.

Got 4 coming down so far, hopefully we can bump that up to at least 6 by the time the weekend rolls around. Anyone from the club got predicited sales figures?

Some good work being done here in getting people along. Well done folks. We'll get some decent crowds this season if we can keep this up. Hope the team does its part, and can keep up the momentum.

I did push the "charity" idea last week, but alas, with little or no staff at the club, it was deemed too late.
Great news from some on here that we are all dragging along some mates. This is still the best way to get new fans in my opinion.
Someone had a great idea a while back that we all target a game in the summer, where we all try to bring at least 5 mates. I think this is a brilliant idea.

..... at least the Club could allow as 'bucket collection' for the Bushfire victims. Am sure the Club could get 6/8 fans to help. What about it Gutterfax.

Shortage of staff is no excuse.

It seems certain backroom staff lack any will to do extra work. The sooner we get a CEO etc the better......

In all honesty, I dont think the idea of donating from gate receipts is a great idea for a club that operates on a shoe string budget and is hoping to use the game as a money spinner.

As a sports and events proffesional, I'd hate to think that the staff arent pulling their weight as in my experience staff in the industry always go above and beyond what their contracts and often measly pay packets stipulate.

Right.....5,000 is my new prediction, so PP will receive 2 pints of Green King from me.
Bucket collections are all well and good, but need legal sanctioning etc to ensure the charity receieves the money, so there may be a problem with organising this for Manly. Wigan might be a better game to target (especially considering their team is full if Australians ) and I will propose this at both the walkabout on Thursday and to the club/RFL on Sunday.
Lastly, I have annoyed everyone on the facebook group with requests to bring mates, but please guys and girls.....I know we all do what we can, but if you can think of anyone of your friends, colleagues or family who might come to this game, ask them now. There are some people who have done more than enough to promote this game, but if we could all think of 1 more person to invite, Paddock might just have to buy his own beer
