PrestersKtid Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Just saw there that Hibs have already sold 9400 for next season. Tweeted Killie the other day asking when season tickets for next campaign would be on sale. No response. Surely we should be striking while the iron is hot? Sooner we can buy them the sooner the club has the cash to bring in better players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilMARKnock Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I'm not bothering next year, where will the excitement be winning every game. I've not spent the best part of four decades following killie to turn into some replica of one of either side of the arse cheeks. No, I'll go out on a high at the end of the season and give the beautiful game up along with the drink. It was good while it lasted. AYE f**kING RIGHT!!! #KTID 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

historyman Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I'm sad we've only got 6 games left this season. I don't want it to end. Since October it's been what supporting Barcelona, Bayern or Man City must be like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sent me that reply on Twitter when I enquired about them. Huge missed opportunity I my opinion. He said it had been a busy time, but someone's been sleeping on the job here. Nearly everyone thinks season tickets are the biggest factor that will increase attendances in a sustainable manner. Hibs have rightly spotted their feel good factor and sold over 10k tickets. We sell them every year, surely it can't be that complicated. It's the same with the new strip every single year. We don't half know how to make life hard for ourselves. We should have had them on sale weeks ago with Sir Steve up front urging us to buy them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A season ticket campaign should be been given a high priority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be buying mine until next month at the earliest anyway as I've had tons on recently but I'm others would have snapped them up had they been on sale by now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's a pattern at the club that they've struggled to stamp out. Bowie is making good positive moves in the way the club are doing things but either the inexperience in running a football club or with the CEO having learned her trade under Michael Johnston has led to things such as the season tickets, strips etc following the usual pattern as we have done in the past. Someone at the club should have noticed that things are different now. We did well securing top 6 and moving straight into contract negotiations but the stuff that doesn't directly impact the players are still lacking a bit. Someone from a business perspective needs to look at these issues and see where we're missing out on fairly obvious opportunities. The demand will be higher than ever for people who want to wear club merch on holiday, I just hope it's available. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhamkillieken Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 i am happy to give the club some slack on this. it is no coincidence that the contract renewals have happened on the back of securing a top 6 place. this will make our close season so much more relaxed knowing that we have the core of the team set for the next season. if this has been the delay then so be it. maybe they are waiting for us to secure a european place for the launch? obviously going forward we should have them on sale earlier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygod Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 The club must have a calendar of when things have to be started and completed by each year. Someone surely can't say one morning, "I suppose we should start thinking about season tickets". Discussions about pricing and marketing strategy should have started before the end of last calendar year, I would have thought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capitalkillie Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 Some amount of moaning on here. A month won't make a difference. And to be fair it has been a busy month. What matters is a well marketed campaign led by SC encouraging folk to snap them up. We are 4 or 5 wins better off than where we were if we'd launched them last month. The feel good factor is still here and will only get better between now and the end of the season. Likelihood is they are waiting to see if they need to include a European top-up option! So simmer down folks. Accies away tomorrow and 6 in a row. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with the crowd increases everything will take time, we won't go to a well oiled machine overnight and this includes the business side of the club. We've seen massive improvements on social media / training sessions / players out at schools, the list is endless of the improvements in the last few months compared to what it was like under MJ. Lets cut Bowie/board some slack, if we have them on sale by the end of the month that will be fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
