Swansea City v Bristol City : Match day thread : SUNDAY ! 13:39 - Sep 23 with 20246 viewsModeratorC

Oh what a huge derby game for the smaller Welsh clubs.

It’s on a Sunday, 3pm KO.

And it’s LIVE on Sky as the featured game.

If we keep up this form for a 3rd straight match, I might have to start drinking the Kool Ade

Which then probably means reality will crush my soul by sometime next Spring

Drinking the Kool Aid is a term that came from the Jim Jones cult tragedy in the 1970s.

Sunday mate, on the tv, people still not convinced, and many seem to waiting for another set back to become unhappy. All football sites like this ramp up their visits when people are complaining or want a manager out etc.

The last two attendances as per the OP are slightly more, but not by much.

Of course I want to be wrong.

When people have season tickets they get into the habit of going, basically because they have paid for the product. When we have 9,500 season ticket holders and say 1,500 from Bristol City attend that is 11,000 ish. To expect the club to sell over 4-5,000 matchday tickets with virtually no publicity is very unlikely.

So do we all.
Our fans,like most,want the best
When they don’t get it,they sulk,bitch,turn up and moan and stay away and moan. It’s better to moan at the ground than on a website .
Moaning at a ground can ,and indeed should, see players up their game to prove the fans wrong . If players won’t or can’t,they shouldn’t be at the club in the first place .

I’m not convinced of the repeated argument that cost is the main factor. It is the product. Ours has been insipid and at time appalling so many ,thousands,have walked . When things can be seen to be better ,they return .
Sadly,we are not the hotbed that ,say,the north east is because had Geordies or Maxkems been watched the garbage served up by us and the broken dreams with it,then You d have @ ground filled with venom . I like venom. It’s better than supine and accepting what we have .

Williams has presided over much dross and it’s going to take some time to get the mojo back and parked up.It would help if we saw some real dialogue with the owners . Yeah baby .

As for Bristol,can’t stand the place nor their fan base

I have just looked at the map of online ticket availability, I would say the South Stand and around the corners is less than 50% sold. Possibly it is time to introduce reduced price family tickets in this area.

Do 2000 tickets at £10 and £5. They will sell..
Get outlets at neighbouring towns where people can pop in and buy tickets easily, even with cash
Have a cash turnstile.

iTS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE.

We went to the first 2 home games and we travelled to WBA and Coventry, there has been improvement yet I am not planning on going Sunday.

I hadn't even realised it was Sunday until today. Once that fire has been put out, it's hard to re-ignite I guess.

I planned watching on t, my son has asked about going and I said no. He can go if he wants but he won't travel there by bus or train, he expects me to drive him because he's a wuss

Why should season ticket holders pay £20 per game for their tickets when you are suggesting plastics can just turn up and pay £10.

The very same reason sometimes you have kids for a quid, to fill empty seats when the ground is not full. As a season ticket holder I would not object.

My season ticket works out at about £11 a game anyway.

To get the kids into the swans, then the kids will force the parents to bring them, then they become loyal jacks, then they do the same with their kids, that's how it works derrrrr 🤪

You can do it for five games a season as long as the overall reduction doesn’t benefit those entitled to an offer. In other words as long as the season ticket holders don’t lose out.

They say the sign of a good team is that they get points when playing poorly. We must be outstanding.

I’m not bothered by what other people pay. Get as many in the ground as we can. If that means people who pick and choose paying less per game than me I’ll live with it.
