I was talking about this today at work, not popping round to yours obvs, I can't remember the last time my house phone rang!!
Like many I only have one cos it comes with the broadband, so don’t use it If I have to give an email address for anything then I give one I’ve set up for companies to make them feel happy, but I never check it (actually I did once and it had 9000+ unread emails!) Basically I avoid speaking to people
By my calculations in order to give at least 90 days notice of change of prices before the August payment on 1st August The Club need to advise members by the end of tomorrow. EDIT: announcing it today or tomorrow would be very clever by The Club. It is now May so anybody who would cancel because they don't like the changes would have to pay for May, June and July because of the two full months notice period. So they'd be collecting 3 payments from members without giving them anything back.
We're in a bit of a state now even with the parachute money. Can you imagine what the club will be like when that money stops and the only revenue is gate money, corporates and transfer fees ?
At this rate, there will also come a point whereby the gates will be so low that it will be cheaper to rent a stadium once a week to play in rather than open the KCOM with all it's associated overheads.
KCOM Craven Park here we come. Except I wont be. Cancelled my Premier Club seats. Had them since we move to KC December 2002. They said I'm welcome back anytime...
We've told them we're not renewing (five Premier Club seats), unless meaningful concessions are introduced for next season. Didn't even get a reply. We estimate we've spent almost £100k just on attending home games since the KCOM opened.
Ask for it back. If the Allams are repaying themselves back the money they've spent surely everyone else can ?
And we did the same at the start of the season with our 5 premier club seats. Had our names on them since the stadium opened. Have wondered a few times whether they still have our names on them or whether they found replacement people. It was the lack of understanding/listening that did it. Surely someone is spotting these statistics about non renewers and is thinking about how to reverse it. Edit : Surely someone should be spotting these statistics about non renewers and should be thinking about how to reverse it.
Perhaps the attention will be drawn to a dilapidation battle between HCC and the Allams. I only hope that, for once, someone will have done their homework and then come to the right decisions.
Don't worry. Since the Allams took over, the sales and marketing team has grown from 12 to 61. They've got it covered.
I've often wondered if that would be their ultimate 'V' sign to the fans and to the council before they called it a day
