I've replied to it trying to get people to come too, no real anti RL/Bramall Lane comments either yet surprisingly...

Widnes played in pink last night to do with testicular cancer (I can say testicular on the forum can't I if not the mods can b*lls)

Seriously we ought to be doing something similar - maybe the Keighley televised game. Have a charity like Bluebell Wood or the Radio Sheffield kids scanner appeal.

Maybe we could get a charity strip and auction the shirts off?

I think an iniative could be to offer a season ticket holder of Sheff Wed,Sheff UTD and Rotherham United a FREE one off match,Make it the same game,then follow it up with an offer ticket for a forthcoming game for a fiver etc,Even if you get a 100 coming regualry after the offers it will be worth it.

Some interest on the message board,One made the point of a discount for SUFC season ticket holders,if advertised on the SUFC website and stuff we could really tap into it.

Re: Marketing : Fri Mar 19, 2010 10:14 pm  

Sensible question, what has the club actually done to properly market the move to SUFC?
