Title: Still no announcement for early bird ......
Post by: Norfolk N Chance on March 21, 2010, 02:51:47 pm
At any home game ....Bearing in mind that 90/95% of existing season ticket holders are there to hear!

INCREDIBLE!

Gartom can you ask the club why this is not happening !?!

Here here Norfolk (wow we find ourselves agreeing on something).
JR has done the good thing and extended the deadline, but the club can't communicate this out.
Again it comes to a question of the club marketing itself, which it doesn't do.

I assume the lack of communication is deliberate. The club are trying to get as much cash in the bank early as possible.

There is nothing online that mentions the change of date and the pdf hasn't been changed either.

prices pdf (http://www.doncasterroversfc.co.uk/staticFiles/86/4a/0,,10329~150150,00.pdf)

I reckon they will publicize the extension again when the previous deadline arrives.

They have changed the dates in the match programme though.

Its been happening for years. Remember when people said \"it'll be ok when we move from Belle Vue everything will be fine.\"

New offices, new computers, new shiny ticket office, new staff. Same club motto

\"its not our fault\"

Get used to it. Its not gonna change overnight, over the next year. NEVER.

And this weeks edition of Free Press was again devoid of anything relating to season tickets.

There's definitely no need to get any qualifications to improve on our current marketing department, the full 5 stars from McDonalds will more than suffice!

The club are currently running an advert on TRAX FM which mentions a deadline of 30th April for early bird season tickets.

It could be that the club don't want to over-advertise the extension of the deadline to the masses as they'd quite like the cash in this week?
