Unofficial Halesowen Town FC Forum

Alfreton £18 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting, this.

I'd like some Yeltz fans posting on here what it costs them to follow the club...

Home matches
£8 in
£15ish beer
£5 summat to eat
£2 Programme/Raffle Ticket, etc.

That's £30 notes!! Per game!

Interesting that 2 clubs in the Conference only feel the need to charge £2 more than we do. Maybe a reality check for all the teams at our level is in order. 3 divisions lower and a far, far lower standard of football, surely more would come if the price was consistent with that. Those extra people would then buy more food, drink and merchandise, so it may start to balance out. Who knows?

Good point Andy but it will never work... Kings Lynn charge £10 an adult now. Increase from £8 I believe. Attendances have dropped slightly but not by much,

So 800 fans at £8 = £6,400
650 fans at £10 = £6,500

Potential to make more for big games as proved against Coalville the other day.

If we do the maths for Halesowen,

250 say average at £8 = £2000

We would need 333 people at £6 a head to get the same £2000. Can you guarantee that in this league? The answer is I don't know....

Actually just looked. Kings Lynn attendances have increased on average.

When was the last time we had an increase?

Stourbr*dge is £10 and only a league higher.

IF we got promoted to the Northern Premier League Premier Division division in 2013, what's the likelihood that Halesowen would round the entrance fee up to a Paul McKenna?
What attributes would be put into consideration, i.e. potential higher gate numbers, more merchandise?
