Dale v PNE 19:43 - Oct 25 with 11898 viewsdilleydaler

So. Another one of THOSE games. Expectation rising. Visiting side; in second place, well supported local team. City and Utd meet at Eastlands on Sunday. Oldham away. Bury at home, declining form, v Cambridge.

Floaters may be up for a fix.

Estimated gate?

I'll go 5,379.

That would be nice.

Preston had sold around 700 tickets by last Monday. Today's win should see that number have doubled at least by now. They do play at Orient in midweek so another victory will probably result in a few more getting tickets.

Notice that all kids who attend the FITC courses this half term get a free ticket for an upcoming match:
http://www.rochdaleafc.co.uk/news/article/fitc-octobersessions-2014-1936085.aspx
Could info leaflets be given out too? Opportunity to promote the excellent free season tickets for 7s and under & the prices for other kids plus a quick ad for the Preston game that focuses on our "cheapest day out in football" award.

* the info is not the responsibility of the Football in the Community team to sort, they just need to be given a couple of hundred leaflets. Probably about an hour or so's work, stick something on the bottom to bring the leaflet to the club shop and claim a free programme, two reasons : kids have a momento from their day out and the success of such a simple promotion can be monitored.

Think Cambridge will be the happier team next Saturday come 5 o'clock.

5670 against the match fixers.
Their whole defence were under investigation for match fixing last season.
If Calvin Andrew scores then I smell a rat.

We should get a good crowd, and with good local press during the week it may whet the appetite of some floaters. It's just typical the Blue Brand and Red Brand are playing at the Brand Stadium the following day. Hopefully the club can go hard-sell with this. More than just the infamous next fixture board.

Just demonstrates how important it is it stay in this division long term. The away followings this year will be far superior to those we had in League 2 (still have Oldham, Sheff Utd etc to come of course). Sure our home support tends to react slowly to success but we've seen in previous seasons (thinking the first promotion season in particular) we can get 3k plus home fans Regulalry once we're on a roll. Of course the big bonus is that each away fans has to pay us £20. If Preston bring 2k on Saturday that's another 40k in the coffers.

Apparently, Oldham have sold close to 1800 already for the game in a few weeks. If it's not already, I strongly suspect it will end up being all ticket. You'd have to assume given the number sold already, that they'll sell out the Willbutts.

A Director once told me that a full Willbutts is worth £50,000 to us after additional police costs, Vat etc have been taken off, and concessions are taken into account.

in Coleman's last season, our total gate receipts were £575,000 for the whole ground over 23 games.

Therefore, in this league, you'd expect visitors to fill (or nearly fill) Willbutts half a dozen times. Which means that one stand in 6 games provides 50% of our annual 'take' compared to 2 seasons ago. It's all quite eye opening really, and fully supports your first sentence.

Yeah, but we'll still only have a teeny-weeny bit more matchday income than Pale's lot.

Currently won 8 in a row - I would be disappointed if they didn't bring closer to 3000 on a run like that. Especially if they are still getting 10,000 + crowds at home?

If it's the thread I saw, that post was followed by a copied story which says 1081.

PNE police on twitter are quite good, in reply to someone asking it was 1300ish by end of yesterday. They had over 600 at Orient tonight. Typing all that gave me a small insight into the mind of a Bradford fan.

I'm bringing a previous floater who in turn is roping in a new floater from Wigan......perhaps the home crowd might just be on the up too?


Looking good for a cracker at San Spotty.

He's shit at defending. And first and foremost I like my defenders to defend. But going forward he's half decent, but nowt special. Has some great attributes which should make him a quality second tier operator at least. But he's feeble, weak minded and soft as shit.


The fact upon his arrival at PNE he told their reporter that he "didn't enjoy it at Barnsley from day one" taints him too. I mean, he breezed into Oakwell, replaced a club icon in Bobby Hassell, had two managers who picked him ahead of John Stones and yet he never enjoyed it?

His missus is a complete lunatic too.


I hope he starts against Reuben...
