Generally, they are poor value. Go on holiday and you 'free' week evaporates. Also, you lose the flexibility of not going if it is cold/wet/too hot/showing or if you don't feel well, or are isolating. Expand And severely impacts you dong any "specials" during the season to try and drum up some extra custom... What I would do is raffle off say ten tickets over the first ten matches, one per match.... I would suggest you would get circa £10k for those tickets at just a £ a pop rather than around the £3k or so you would get ordinarily.. And missing the odd meeting wouldnt matter if you hadn't spent loads on the ticket.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
