So, what slogan would you choose for the club then? Seriously.

| I don't find them meaningless at all.
They are good tag lines and a good way of marketing the club. Each work well for the position we were and are now in.

| I don't think the clubs needs a slogan as such. If there was one when the club was first set up and has since become tradition then fair enough. The new ones like Together we are stronger et al all sound a bit false although I accept for the younger generation its useful to have some sort of hashtag for them to use while on twitter.

| Quote PopTart="PopTart"You make a great point OB.
Those that came, came partly because it was a good deal but partly because we were entertaining and the atmosphere was great.
AG and JE in my opinion didn't so much have bad ideas, they just didn't execute them well, or possibly at the right time.
Getting people in dragged more in. That plan worked I have no doubt. I think they just lost sight of their main priority for getting them in was to increase the income.
I'm reading the new Wakefield Trinity book and I'm amazed at some of the low crowd numbers we've had watching some great players of the past.
We've done something to change that. We need to find a way of keeping them and increasing the income as well.
No easy task but it's easier now they've been at least once before'"
I do take your point, although I disagree with the ideas/execution bit, and I've disagreed with it ever since I've been involved. I could get 10000 there every week. Just make it free! Does us absolutely no good though? If I made it 30 per adult would I still get 1000 adults there? Every chance I reckon with our hardcore support. There has to be a point where we can maximise gate revenue? I think 20 pound for 2 hours entertainment is competitive when you look at how bowling or the cinema stacks up these days and you take into account the deals for kids. Like I've said in another post if we can average 4000 walk up, I'll be happy.

| £20 on the gate isn't that bad for an adult coming in on their own but it soon stacks up when the wife and kids also come out too, have you thought of a family day ticket ?

That was part of my point... We can never prove or disprove it... But I don't think you could. The people who came, wanted to come... No amount of free football can get someone along who is not interested.
There is a market there and has been shown to be an expanding market over a couple of years... I would love to be able to do the work to understand why... And how is it possible to take that kernel and grow it into a steady and predictable income stream... Sometimes being 13000 miles away is a bit frustrating.
All I would say is don't give up on those people. The more you get in the ground, the more people will want to come. Scarcity creates demand.
And remember those people came along last year in the face of some pretty poor form

| I must admit I haven't had a season ticket for many years due to work, Cricket, family and the uncertainty of when games will be played ie changes for sky.
I have two sons age 12/15 who sometimes want to watch the games, but when the whole family go to a game, add in program, food, drinks etc, there isn't much change from £100 so we cant afford every home game, a mini family season ticket would appeal but it would have to be flexible for a range of games as we cant get to every match.

| people do need tempting though. Offers work in every walk of life, and the better the offer the more tempting resulting in an increase in sales. The club MUST look at offers to increase its sales, to sit back and hope for x number walking on the day without tempting them back is an utter waste. Gates against salford, london and cats are low, i would think of making an offer to walkings on those games, providing they have paid full on 3 or more games. A token or stamp to provide money off. Also a family match ay ticket for the three games may help.

| family match day tickets would be excellent, but if any of the three games are altered for sky etc. then that may not fit in with other commitments, a family ticket for any three games would be better (or maybe any class of game) so the ticket wouldn't apply to class A games such as Cas, Leeds etc, where crowds are usually quite good anyway, but maybe for use on any three from five as an example. Catalans, London, Salford, Widnes, and one other !

I don't think we need one. Back the badge that was created by the last lot that ran us dry?
