Extra 600 Fans

Post by tech_head »

Given that it seems most K*ttering fans have simply rolled over and are letting the club die as it doesn't seem they are putting up much of a fight. Less then 150 fans have signed up to their 'save the club' facebook page and more money seems to have been raised from bucket collections from other clubs such as Wrexham, rather then their own fans bucket collections.

I just wondered as Monday seems like the club will be no more, have our management team factored in our business plan the extra 600 fans we can expect to gain once they are not longer playing in our borough?

Is was 600 fans that we lost to them wasn't it? ;)

PS why we are at it, I think it would only be a good thing to return the fantasic gesture that IL gave us last year. We should really offer any fan that brought (or should I say was pretty much given) a K*ttering season ticket for this season a free AFC RD ticket for next year.

We should act fast before Northampton jump in again with the same offer. I bet you they have that press release done and ready to go out at 5pm on Monday :D

is it not time to welcome the "600" back into the fold ;) , are they not the "floaters" that IL said would come from Rushden anyway ;)
Still Say that Van Der Veldan had the most amazing ball control of any player at our club.

Very good post, tech head, except that it is "bought" as in the verb "to buy", not "brought" as in the verb "to bring"!

Thanks RD.
I was rushing when typing the post as I wanted to get it posted before Northampton came out with the offer of free season tickets. I really didn't want us to miss out on those '600' fans.
