OK Fully speak fact, what has been announced that's going to make us buy a season ticket next year

Ill start with Shenny

Remember fact only not "tomorrow they are going to say ??" or are we waiting for Ken Bates to sell LUFC to Borat and then take over Cas ( Only a joke by the way I have no inside info )

Cheers Guys! Very interesting debate.
Starting a thread in order to try and see the positive side of things does not mean we have to live on a cloud. It means have your say and opinion because "if you were in charge" what would you do?. What has to be concidered is the 'long term future of the club so everything has to be balanced out. In my opinion the directors have done a good job with the club, we have our own ground and a vision . We have in the past though 'sold on' our crown jewels on the playing side in order to keep afloat and we may still have to. Our crowning glory will be the stadium and yes RW and co have put a lot of spin on things but that is our future because then the revenue streams will be opened up wider. There has been a lot of banter along the way but seriously if we stay positive, positive things will happen. You only reap what you sow or you can't spend what you ain't got!!!!

No offense 'Fully', but this has to be my favorite quote of the week!

Sport is a business!! It's just that sport accepts 'excuses' which if given in the real business world would get your fired before you'd even batted an eye lid.

Just have a moment to think about it....both sport and other business' have assets, key references, reputations, competitors, marketing and products upon which they approach the market to do business. If anything sport is a simple business model, because to some extent due to loyalty of supporters it has a guaranteed customer base upon which to build or lose....depending on product performance and a few other simple matters. But as ever in business success is based upon listening to what the customer wants....'not' telling the customer what you want them to have!

Any way, back to being positive. The fans desperately need some genuine, solid, real value good news....because there is a big vibe at the moment about fans not renewing their season tickets. So what ever good news some 'think' has already been given, hasn't done the trick!

The club are really not giving fans a reason to renew season tickets.

You mean, apart from being fans?

This has been the worst season i have ever experienced as a cas fan (yes worse than being relegated) as i have posted before i have zero faith in ian milward as a coach and think we are going backwards at an alarming rate under him, something i dont think will change till we get shut of him, however i am still a cas fan so i will get my season ticket for next year and cheer on the boys the same as i always DO, because that's what being a fan is, being there through the good times and the bad.
