Why, just because I disagree with some of the negativity on here should I delete my account?
Is debate and discussion a thing of the past?
I've agreed that the marketing at the club is pretty poor (non-existent??), but the point I'm making is that the quality of the marketing has no bearing at all on the ability of any existing Salford fan to get a season ticket, which is what the OP was implying

Like you say it it's a forum if people want to moan about it then let them.

Just take a look at what other teams are doing to promote season tickets... www.warringtonwolves.org/splash/ www.wiganwarriors.com/Splash.aspx Its not about moaning, i'll be getting a ticket regardless, as am sure most others commenting on here will be. The problem is the marginal fans wont if its not made easier. They shouldnt need to go out of their way, infact it should be shoved down their throat so its easier to just buy the ticket than not. I know we havent got much money, but this is THE most important part of this season, getting bums on seats early, and keeping them there. Surely the benefit will outweigh the cost, but times running out quickly

the silence from the club is deafening,thats what concerns me,when we all should be buzzing waiting for the season to start all we get is the fans bickering amongst ourselves,a new business advertises it self to the hilt,emails,flyers,radio etc etc.why are we not,is there something going on,it makes you think is it worth it if the club cannot be bothered selling tickets,why should i buy one.common salford let the fans know what the hell you have got planned.

OK then, if the club WONT tell us and you HAVE bought one, how much are they then? and why would i want to go down to the club when i can pay over the phone (if they ring). As M.R said, they should be chasing us for business. yes we will be getting one. Again the club needs to change its attitude how it runs its business, every day people are losing their jobs ( and i could be soon

). People are going to be very careful now with thier money and the club need to be tempting people to part with what little money is spare.

Are the definitely on "open" sale, as opposed to existing season ticket holders? I Saw a comment on facebook saying that a photo of the sheet in the shop showing prices offered for existing ST holders (inc the 5-year deal) were not the confirmed 2012 prices for others.

I've just rung the club to enquire about my season ticket for 2012 and been told the price increases TODAY !!!!!
Has anyone else heard this??

Don't think the club knows what's going mate let alone anyone else.

if this is correct it is absolutely scandalous - nothing at all on reds.co.uk...I've had nothing in the post...WTF???

I can't believe this, if true what are the club up to? I like many others have not received any info' I didn't get a leaflet at the last game, what is going on at the Reds? I have been discussing with friends where we might go in the new stadium, favourite at the mo' is standing. At this rate I might be listening on Radio Manchester.

So the club have no responsibility to promote STs or contact existing/new supporters about them?

I was told stuff would be posted out soon. I've had trouble previously in making contact with the club via email. I don't have chance to ring the club during office hours. But it's for normal for every other club I support to contact existing supporters about STs, memberships and everything else. They also market to new supporters as well. So far, Salford are failing on both fronts. As I've mentioned previously, I never had any paperwork about the 3 and 5 year STs.

If (and I say "if"icon_wink.gif prices have gone up today, earlier than usual, with no paperwork sent to existing members and ST holders then it's an absolute scandal. Of course, I'm not entirely convinced that will be the case. But this is a problem and, rather than just accusing people of whinging for the sake of it and telling everyone to stop moaning and just ring up the shop, maybe you could just sit back and take in the point people are trying to make?

We seem to be desperate to keep season ticket prices a secret for whatever reason.

That does it, I will carry on paying for my season ticket monthly and then when I get it I will not go, there foot in both camps



But in the real world the clubs marketing team would have been out there selling the club, if they have nothing to sell ie confusion over the prices of the season tickets there is not a lot they can do.

So is it the board or the CEO who have mismanaged this trip to the Brewery?

I've already been phoned twice about renewing my season ticket and had something sent in the post. I think we should have something prominently advertised on the official site though.

Is that since the end of the season, or as part of the earlier price freeze/multi year offer?

I spoke to the club and they think the new season ticket details will be announced the latest the end of the week, which is good news.

Usually it happens after the internationals so we are early in that aspect but I do feel it needed to be earlier this season, just lets hope its a good deal

Can't remember exactly when, was over the last couple of months - both were before the season had ended though

Nah, it's the fixtures that follow the internationals, season tickets are usually shortly after the season ends (well, our season anyway) . It was only a few years ago that you got a free ticket to the current season's grand final if you bought your season ticket early enough.

Think you lot are missing a trick here. My brother and nephew live in Sale and I took them to the Rhinos game and they were showing interest in getting a season ticket when you moved to Barton. Get your ticket prices out there in Urmston, Sale, Stretford etc generate some interest and you'll pick up some new fans. Don't leave it until Jan to market for te new season.

Salford will most likely leave it until June 2012 before somebody does anything.

but there is a Cas fan who teaches there who is doing loads to get kids into the game.

I have purchased the 5 year season ticket behind the sticks ,standing. I only found out this by going in the shop and asking. I pay by standing order £88 a month for 9 months . I agree that it has been a shambles and typical of how poorly run our marketing is. Beggars belief really .

Tomorrow it is then

according to the official site

I don't even think the club know what day they are launching it. If you read the website site it says it will be on wednesday 18 !

With today being wednesday 19 Oct perhaps it's to wet our lips for when the tickets are launched in 2017?

OUR CLUB ARE FOO KING HO PLESS
