RE: Summer Rebuild 2023/24 Season - Statesideowl - 06-06-2023
Only one Club has more expensive season tickets in the Championship than us, Norwich City.
Over £500 for us. £300+ to watch Leicester, Sunderland etc.
Chansiri is off his rocker.
Someone needs to take him through the away end turnstiles and show him the absolute dire state of the Club as the World views it.
Buy some fking paint and a power washer, tight mofo!

And Norwich have been in the PL a couple of times the last 5-6 year, so they will have had a fair bit of money and parachute payments from being relegated.
Re the stadium, the vast majority of away fans do seem to like visiting Hillsborough (from matchday vlogs), some do mention it could do with a lick of paint and updating which we agree with.

To be fair those prices are the current ones, they were much cheaper in the early bird offers in January. It has been shown time and again that lowering ST prices makes little difference to the attendances, we have sold not far off 20k already and if you reduce prices now then we reduce the income from matchday prices and thats revenue that is received during the season as opposed to before the season like STs.
We need to maximize revenue from ticket sales as it makes up over 60% of our total revenue, so until we get more of the 44k at Wembley going more regularly we have to keep the prices where they are and offer the £300 ST only as an early bird option. Comparing us to Leicester is a bit unfair, their parachute payments are three times our revenue to start with, they can afford to offer cheap tickets, we can't.

That's fair enough, you can remove the EPL teams leaving Sunderland, Rotherpigs etc which are still cheaper than ours.
We are a Club that desperately needs outside investment I do appreciate that Chansiri can't do it all himself.
However, being in this state continues to show how poorly run the Club is, and that isn't the fault of the fans.
The Hillsborough experience is very expensive for how mediocre it is. So much needs to be updated and improved in order to be asking for the kind of money the chairman wants, I feel.

Power, he has gone from recruitment for us to Sporting Director for Blackpool. Down in club size but well up in terms of position.

This guy just did Recruitment and Player Analytics, he helped Moore identify targets. After that it was still up to Chansiri and the rest of the management team to make offer and do the contracts. He wants to be a Sporting Director, that is not on offer for him at S6.
