There are many occasions where a specific player or manager has increased interest and sales. Very few, if any, when ST sales have dropped in anything close to significant numbers..

Being the optimistic fool I am I'd probably get to the ground and decide a building might fall on those bringing ridicule to our club and turn back! You are kidding yourself on if you are telling yourself that the deciding factor for your season ticket purchase is based on whether a PE teacher from Nothern Ireland is the St Mirren manager or not.

Why do you think clubs go out looking for "marquee signings" if not to increase sales. While this is not in the same league there was a lot of interest in OK's St. Mirren. IF the next guy comes in and does well, and IF the chairman doesn't throw him out, then we may all be on here saying Oran WHO? but, in my opinion, going by the noises on here, a lot of people were thinking about whether to renew or not. The end to our season gave them hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALBIONSAINT Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Let me try and work this out, say 200 fans contact the club for travel and board with each one averaging £200 , that’s a bill of £40000. With just days until the early bird deal finishes I would say this is a bold move. I take it this compensation will be generated from ST sales.

Firstly In what universe do you have the ability to know what my motivation is? Secondly. It's not the PE teacher that I think made the difference. It's what the PE teacher got out of the squad of players toward the end of the season and the thought of how much more he could get after a full pre season. It's the realisation that we would be back at square zero again that might have made the difference for some renewing. It does become soul destroying.

What I'm trying to get across that you whining about a refund is extreme and hardly any supporters would want a refund when a manager or player leaves.

What I'm trying to get across that you whining about a refund is extreme and hardly any supporters would want a refund when a manager or player leaves. That'll be why most clubs try to have at least one. An extra 200 or so guaranteed bums on seats for St. Mirren would be massive. It's not inconceivable that feelgood factor could bring that about. And I'm not whining about a refund as you put it. I'm saying the offer would be as relevant as the offer to reimburse for the Ireland debacle. It was a throw away remark to emphasise a point. It would never happen and I know it would never happen. It did progress the discussion though so it served it's purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
