Selling more tickets in lower priced stands despite increases and fewer in The Riverside. Doing deals with corporates and counting the attendance figures. Freebies counted in attendance figures. Great article!
A very good read and I look forward to the upcoming articles on the finances of the club. From a personal point of view I can only say that I am one of the long time fans(50 years) that does not attend many games anymore due to the high ticket prices. When I go my son comes with me so as a future supporter he is also seeing less of the team he loves.
Possible that the increased attendance and lower receipts is explained by the undisclosed number of free tickets given away to ensure the ground looks full? Would need to understand the timings around year end and season ticket purchasing windows to unpick the deferred income.
