In the past a few have posted that GTFC should set up something like Hartlepool (?) did this season when, if a certain number of fans pledged to buy season tickets the price would be very low.

It seeems Stockport tried to sell theirs for £120 each if they got 4875 pledges. Sadly they fell well short.

Was there not a tiered system in place somewhere? The earlier you buy it the cheaper it was? That may be a plan to get a decent amount of cash in before the season begins again.

Wasn't something similar tried at Bradford and it nearly sent them to financial meltdown?

Hartlepool United did it last season or the season before on a sliding scale - something similar to 1000 tickets sold = season tickets at £300
2000/£200, 3000/£150. That's not correct but it was like that and very successful.

Surely there is one loony in the town who would pay a million pounds for a ticket, then our non-chairman could guide us towards losing approx £900k so we would be £100K up on the season and everyone could go about their everyday business.

I'm sure I read/ heard an interview where JF's season ticket worked out at approximately £15,000 per game

Vale did it quite successfully a few seasons ago, and sold well over 5000, funny part was that towards the end of what ended up being a really bad season less than 4000 were turning up for some games.
