Bet there's a few regretting their last minute £15 #NFFC ticket purchase... ☔️

@elliemolloson @petermblackburn Unfortunatley, it will be soon, now the American owners are the majority. They don't own clubs to lose money as most of their NFL, MLB teams show. Either they've miscalculated, or we're in for a rocky ride.
English
@petermblackburn Exactly !! I got shot down when I said this but I wrote my dissertation on it. If football was based purely on business, nearly all clubs would be shut down by now. Football has never and will never be about money making.
English
I've had a few "it's a business, it's supply and demand, no business charges less" arguments. This is either ignorance or wilful ignorance. #nffc like almost all football clubs lose enormous amounts of money. It isn't a normal business. These sums are almost entirely irrelevant.

An important read, free for all now: Why ticket price rises being considered are unconscionable and how #NFFC can break the status quo of the big clubs while being a moral champion and carrying the legacy of the Rebel City. petermichaelblackburn.substack.com/p/the-football…

@castusthered @kodswallop @petermblackburn Almost like it's for show. It's not of course. But almost like it is.
English
@kodswallop @petermblackburn Further irony is they acknowledge the social problems you discuss in the piece with regular food bank collections on match days .

@TrickyInExile @MikeyClarke22 @official85455 @Battlemuch4WW Exactly. Matchday revenues include hospitality, food receipts etc. the idea they're focusing on 5% of the problem to guilt match going fans in to thinking the team performance is based on the depth of their pockets, is ludicrous.
English
@NFFCNJ @MikeyClarke22 @official85455 @Battlemuch4WW Ticket sales themselves will be 5% or less. Maximise attendance and improve facilities at the ground and you can increase/offset fill matchday income.
English
✅ Read the room
✅ Reduce the prices
✅ Fill the ground
✅ Fans on board.
I’ve bought mine but loads haven’t. Be magic off the pitch. #NFFC

The City Ground, under the lights. There's nothing like it.
English
@Battlemuch4WW Non-hospitality match day revenues ~£13M. Agent fees ~£13M. Lining pockets.
English
@official85455 @Battlemuch4WW @MikeyClarke22 Matchday revenues make up 8% of total revenues. Commercial/sponsorship 24%, TV 68%. A 5% increase in ticket prices would mean a max 0.4% increase in total revenues. £760k. 6 weeks of a player wage? It's the wrong priority but they know it's the easiest money to extract...
English
@Battlemuch4WW @MikeyClarke22 This is the reality of dining at the top table. Increases are inevitable with ambition. Forest ownership are looking to level up for sustainability.
The problem is recruitment & the step up to the next level.
That’s the real problem, not the price increase.

Why price rises considered by #NFFC are scandalous. Do consider subscribing fully to support future work and get access to a growing archive. Monthly subs are at the cheapest amount Substack allows, or just £25 for a year. A small group of legends are founding pals. Thank you.

So farewell Istanbul until May 🤞. Loved the vibes & the cats, even better the 3-0 win. Back home now to continue the form v Liverpool on Sunday. New manager, new confidence, #NFFC are back (again).
