Tweet from the club about an hour ago:

We'll have a full update tomorrow PM on everything you need to know if you're planning on attending the game on Saturday at Adams Park, 3pm

Re: bradford : Tue Apr 02, 2013 8:32 pm  

Flipping too late. The SL App still has it as a Friday kick off. Our club might be poop in communication (it is), but RL is generally.

No marketing being done, no efforts to invite locals or raise awareness to Wasps and Wanderers fans. None planned either. Pathetic. Really tests my support this attitude from the club.

People will come to a one off game. Bulls and Super League are strong brands. But nothing coming from the club. Seriously dont know why I ***king bother.

Ok apparently there will be some radio and locla paper ads. I apologise. Not exactly inspirational but better than nothing.

So glad I didn't bother with a season ticket this season. Saved myself a fortune

Marketing Dept... Get onto Wasps RU and get something on their website. Come in your Wasps RU top and get in for a fiver, kids are free.

I watched a Wasps v Quins match here back in 2006ish and the stadium was rocking (it was a full house though), and from memory it was a great game.

Adams Park is a nice little ground, I never thought of it being a potential new home, but it kind of makes sense!!

Bradford fans - I can concur that there is a ton of parking at the Adams Park. No need to worry on that front!!

"Marketing Dept... Get onto Wasps RU and get something on their website. Come in your Wasps RU top and get in for a fiver, kids are free."

Agreed.........Wasps are playing on Friday night. The same could have been done to attract the Wycombe Wanderers fans but they have a game on Saturday. Add to that the major sporting event taking place on Saturday afternoon that attracts around 10 million viewers each year.
Just a coincidence that 5 of the 7 SL games this weekend take place on Sunday?
Now if you genuinely wanted to maximise the crowd for this game, assuming the option of Saturday or Sunday was available........which would you choose?

Saturday night is the best for a curry

Re: bradford : Wed Apr 03, 2013 9:47 am  

To go further, get on to the Wasps RU and get something on the website (already mentioned!!), then ask Wasps RU permission to have a few Bronco players at the gates to hand out flyers advertising the game with the aforementioned deal.

Then to ram the message home, get the Broncs player to come out at half-time with the MC on the pitch and have a quick spruck regarding the game, 1 min max!! Have the rest of the players with the natives in the bars!!

Then have the aforementioned players to mingle with the natives in the bars there after the match aswell.

A very simple, a very cheap 2 hours marketing campaign to a captive audience, and we have raised awareness!!

Re: bradford : Wed Apr 03, 2013 12:43 pm  

this is an opportunity that the club could grasp, we seem to be massively concerned on "local" support" we are a London based club, not Twickenham or Brentford or Charlton wherever we happen to be playing.
The support base we have and the demographic area we should be aiming at is massive not just whats around the stadium
So yep maybe do summat at the yawnion game, but get it advertised around the whole area
