Kitchandro Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 You don't want much do you... No I don't really. Most of that is pretty basic stuff. I don't expect them to want to go along with much of it, but if I was in charge those things would be the very minimum I would change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, I agree with what you say anyway... just can't see any of that actually changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 By my comment, it's not a dig at families, I just can't help but feel the club's target market is 100% families and it's not right, not all that great for the long term or short term. I think the club have got to encourage atmosphere more, and by that, not look down on those who make noise (because it happens, lets be honest), I actually think if we had a great atmosphere every home game we could get away with even a shite team and the fans would still be wanting to come back. For a side that are as high up and as good at home as we are, the experience is pretty disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Dream Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 I'd agree with most of what Kitch says. Also agree on the jazzed up post horn gallop and the terrible sound system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 Get rid of goal music- Fire isn't hideous like Chelsea Dagger was but it's just not needed. More flexible ticket pricing- We've had poor crowds for our two biggest home games so far. If the game is on TV try and tempt the fans away from their sofas.

leicesterseddon Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 Think you should have plenty to go on in the meeting. As others have said, certain things about the 'modern football experience' aren't in (or at least, not entirely) the clubs's hands: e.g. kick-off times, even the price structure to some extent when you think about what's happened to players' wages and the prices of staying competitive now, even in the Championship. Other things though would be extremely easy to change: the pre-match build-up, goal music, etc. I suppose these are 'minor' gripes in the scheme of things, but I think for a while now the club have underestimated how much this sort of thing grates on some fans...

The Year Of The Fox Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 The queues at the kiosks are shite. You cannot buy a drink in l block and have it in 15mins during half time To get them to look at the safestanding model Can they not bring in an away membership for non STHs? Oh and the whole matchday experience bollocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al-aLondon-Foxile Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 Do anything it takes to improve the atmosphere. Safe standing, moving the family area, whatever, lets experiment and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The atmosphere HAS to be improved. Getting rid of overloud pre match music- someones idea about getting past heroes to talk about their goals (the poster mentioned Walshy in the Playoff v Derby) is a fantastic idea. The club need to look at giving more support to the 18-30 age range (some are younger some older) but take away this portion of people would leave the club without many fans in attendance at all. There are many disalluisioned people on here who don't bother going now. Ticket prices are the blame for that. Safe Standing- As others have said, its impossible for the club to ignore now. Fans aren't asking for the stadium to be made all standing. They're asking for a public acknowledgement about it. We already know for a fact Susan Whelan went to the parliament meeting last year to see what the fuss was about and she just wants to see how it develops. Maybe ask her to get in touch with Jon Darch and arrange a private viewing of the model with him. He does it all over the country, doesn't cost a penny and he has visited many clubs privately (premier league as well as Chamionship) and honours their wish to be anonymous. We do not need generic responses, treating some very intelligent fans as if they're 5 coming out with the usual mantra. Its my understanding Susan Whelan didn't want to attend the roadshow at the start of the season for fearing of being bombarded with fans' questions. Maybe that was true, so she now has a perfect opportunity to look into it privately- she may well have done already. If you do bring this up, its important you yourself get a good backgrounding on the concept so as not to be fobbed off at the meeting. the website address is www.safestandingroadshow.com if you're unsure about anything contact me, Bilo or 1964fox for some clarification. Go in armed with as many answers as possible. All you're asking for is an acknowledgement on the topic. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect this season's prices were partly because of the money we splashed out recklessly last season. Two other things: one, they could arguably make more money by attracting more fans with lower prices. Two: I'm pretty sure most revenue comes from TV and sponsoring these days, especially with the amount we're on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linemakers Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 Change family stand with the Kop, who every thought it was good to put the family stand next to the away end wants shooting. Better quicker FAST food outlets. Queues are too long dread to think what they would be like if the stadium was full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocker Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 Ticket pricing is an issue for me, I have no problem affording them but feel that at over £30 for a decent view i am being ripped off, you have to ask yourselves are you trying to sell going to the football or just making money from the loyal fans that will go anyway. The ground is nearly always 3/4 full at best so there are a lot of tickets that you just cant sell in any other business if you only sold 3/4 of your stock you would have to lower your prices. The idea of putting the kop near the away fans is a no brainer and would improve the atmosphere as they tried to out sing each other, you cant here the away fans in the kop at the minute. Getting a drink at half time is just not worth the hastle as you will miss most of the second half but not sure what could be done other than vending machines.
