Yes, because when the North bank was full you couldn't get out for a pastie and get back to your spot without missing 20 mins of the game!!
I understand trying to maximise profits but they may be onto a loser, a half time flyer told me sales were very much down because people thought half the money went to the owners (which it doesn't) and they weren't giving those people any more money! |
I noted yesterday that the first prize for the flyer was £250. It used to be £1000, I think. | |

It seems to have dropped, I wonder if that’s because sales or down or if the club are taking a larger share of the proceeds? I seem remember going to a Cardiff Devils match a few years ago and their flyer was at least £250 and the crowd was only around 2,000 |  | | |

Did you not read my post, no money from flyer sales goes to the club, it goes to charity or to prize money, a 50/50 split after any expenses......the flyer seller told me!! | |

I think the issue here is putting money in the yanks and some of the sellouts pockets.
If this was suggested 5 years ago I'm sure the reaction would have been positive.
I'm of the same opinion though, money grabbing bastards |
I noticed pre match in the Riverside yesterday sales were very poor. Most of the staff were hanging around doing nothing. Many in there were watching the early kick off and bought nothing. I think people are hitting the Americans by spending nothing apart from match tickets.
I know the catering is probably franchised, but if sales drop the value of the franchise will and the tender value next time round will be less. |  | | |

I go and watch Hereford a few times a year as it's not far away and a few mates support them. Even with crowds of around 3000, they always give a first prize of about £750.
They surely don't sell more than about 1500. Which would be a 50/50 split.
Are we saying that the sellers only sell around 500 tickets? |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

There didn't seem to be as many in the tombola as they used to be. There was far more than 500 though. | |

It's a sad state of affairs that that side of the club can only come up with a 3rd kit, an ever shrinking fanzone pi$$ poor ideas like hot dogs round the stand, over priced beer in plastic glasses on a concourse to watch stuttering live streams on a 40" tv. Did anyone stay and watch the late game? At what cost and who's taking numbers? Are the trust keeping tabs on these ideas? They should make it public who's ideas these are because if it's a 700k exec then he's surplus to requirements |  | | |

No, missed it. If it goes to Charity then fair enough, but I wasn’t aware of that being the case. | | | |

They changed the prize structure last season, possibly to sell more tickets, more chance of winning one of the 3 prizes
As for the catering, didn't the club take that 'in house'? |  |

Kev John's announced when doing the draw yesterday that 50% goes to the Swansea City community trust and 50% as prize money., |  | | |

On the big screen at half time today advertising that the concourse bar would be open after the game to watch the evening game on tv. At £4 a pint were they being serious!! |
I bought 2 lagers & a cider for £7.20 (not sure in she undercharged me) in the Cross keys yesterday the same round in the stadium was £14.10
