Half Season Tickets

[Tipps End Pilgrim]

I see these are now available for the final 11 home matches of the season.

At £135 for an adult Fantasy Island ticket, I don't think these represent very good value for money (£12.27 per game as opposed to £14), considering we don't really have anything to play for.

I'm not quite sure how the BUFC Marketing team have convinced themselves that this will be a winner.

DL  I was offered a 20 match one for £80!

What an appalling piece of marketing! 

I am sure that current season ticket holders will feel pretty fed up with this initiative.

Next season I suggest prospective season ticket holders all bide their time before buying a season ticket and get one in the sales (which will inevitably come if everyone holds out for long enough).

What a ridiculous post.
Boston United are no different from any other organisation that is trying to sell more of their product.
However I don't think the offer is particularly good value anyway.

Have you never been on a holiday in which you have paid for it well in advance only to find out that others booked at the last minute and paid far less?

I bet a certain Boston department store has a sale after Christmas as well.

At their prices they should have a year round sale it's Lincolnshire not London ...I saw the packed car park a couple of weeks ago when I went past...must be eating into the cash flow keeping an empty building like that....sort it out Mark !

Full season tickets are still better value if bought at early bird rates 

[Scouse Pilgrim]

I seem to have a ruffled a few feathers from amongst the happy clappers!

And as for sales how innocent you all are!  Sales are not what they seem! They are merely a device to make you think you are buying a higher priced good at a cheaper rate.  Stores buy in stuff price it higher than they ever intend to sell it and then mark it down and call it a sale!

No.  I only buy flights and the opposite happens. Prices are much cheaper when you book well in advance    Google Easyjet and Ryanair and be amazed!

Example-: Damart coat bought in December (from the big shop in town) £90. Same coat in January £75. Decision-: Took coat back (said someone had already purchased one for Xmas) sent in someone else to purchase the coat. Conclusion saved £15. Yes some shops do buy in sales gear and have massive sales that start at 5 in the morning, but I would hope most sensible people give those a miss.

Good for you Tash.  I like a shop that does not quibble even with costly customers!

Thank you Scouse, common ground at last. Merry Xmas

Enjoy it while it lasts Tash.  Bonhommie is an ephemeral state of affairs in the land of Scouse!

Yuletide felicitations to you and your brethren all the same
