Great job.
The season ticket database, is that EVERYONE who has EVER had a season ticket? or just this pasts years?
Since 2005
Bloody hell, we're talking about over 1000 people there! Though I presume you're only calling people who are on the database that haven't renewed their ST rather than the people that have.

This should surely raise upwards of £70,000
We had 600 the last 2 years but I'm sure there will be at least a couple of 100 people who already paid for their ST to the club before end of April like I did, so I'm not sure how much more we can make from STs tbh.
i suggest they continue and extend the early bird scheme and encourage more fans to buy ST's rather than increasing the price as it will only slow sales down.
Better to have say £300 than none at all .....!!

* A small group of people will go down the club on monday and ring every single person on the season ticket database asking for them for a renewal.
* Tuesday will be classed as an 'open day' with the reception desk being manned 2-8 for people to go down and buy there season ticket
*The idea of an ex players match is being looked at.
So far £20k has been raised
I am in regular contact with a couple of the old players and can certainly sound them out about a game, they are also in regular contact with a lot of the others

That was in fact what was agreed last night. One of the guys is preparing a script that will be used when people are phoning around which will have all the details like this.

Absolutely spot on Mel, in fact I'd go 1 step further and scrap the "early bird" bit and just say- it's £300 to keep your club alive. It's no longer a case of paying that money to watch Conference football, that's the price for your club continuing this season.
if we can get some ex players and players from season just gone together , for a match a side line could be to have you photo taken with them a bit like event photographers do for a cost that would cover cost of printing and make some extra money for club aswell ? I'm sure we have a few able photographers with Digital SLR's on here that could help out with that.
also isnt there an umbro tournament this weekend at Nene Park , may be some famous old boys as we have had in the past but could be a good time for the money buckets ?
regarding the ex players game do you think somebody close to justin edinburgh can have a word and maybe get some of his old spurs team up here after reading tonites et maybe gazza, dont know untill you ask worth a try
