An Evening with the Management Team

[UCFBAdam]

Well done. Good luck to you. It seems fair value to me.

Thanks Barling, we feel it is fair value, hope to see you there!

 

[UCFBAdam]

I’m seeing if I can move a few things round to attend this.

Hopefully we see you there!

£80... football for the working man?

Hi,

Please read our other messages justifying our pricing strategy.

I'm sure you've worked it out accordingly.. please read other posts re cost of living. I know you'll sell out and good luck.

 

[UCFBAdam]

Afternoon All,

Hope everyone is doing well! Just a reminder we have only just over five weeks until our "An Evening with the Management Team" event. With over 50% of tickets sold so far there isn't many left, so please purchase yours as soon as possible, to avoid disappointment!

Email me at 21339@ucfb.ac.uk to get your tickets today, and to avoid a transaction fee!

 

[UCFBAdam]

Morning All,

We understand not everyone can make the evening, but we do have a charity fundraiser below, if you still wanted to donate to the evening.

All of which raised, will be donated to JE3 Foundation.

Thank you in advance!

With respect Adam I think you have made a big mistake by pricing this event at £80.00 that is why you have only sold half the tickets?!
Some simple research would have steered you in the right direction, for example look what our next opponents are offering for their end of season player awards…..

£30.00

Join the management, players, staff and sponsors of Altrincham Football Club for our End of Season Awards Evening.

A two-course meal will follows a complimentary arrival drink. Our formal awards presentation will then get underway and a DJ will play until late into the evening. Plus, a special exclusive announcement on the night, exclusive for attendees.

Dress code is smart casual.”

I wish you all the luck in the world but in my opinion £80.00 per person was always priced too high.

Hi,

I hope you are well.

I can assure you we did our fair share of research to ensure we priced it accordingly. In previous messages we outlined what was included for our price, "meal with one free drink, meet and greet, signed gift, programme and 90 minutes of entertainment". There are upfront costs we need to manage and recuperate to ensure we do not lose money on a charity event.

When comparing the events, there is a large amount more included within our event. As well as, one major difference. Our event is for charity and all profits will be donated, so there is no greed coming into the situation.

Hope this helps.

Adam

Adam, you're never going to please everyone. Don't worry about trying too. There is a great amount of value in your £80 including the charitable donation. Well done!

This is a slightly bizarre thread but gave me a chuckle! Why do so many of you take great offence when you can’t afford something Southend related?

I wanted to go to Jamaica on my holidays this year but Butlins will have to do. I’m not writing to the Jamaican tourist board complaining of the high prices!

Because it's ShrimperZone, and within the SZ Rules. anything goes. Bizarre sometimes, depressive or outrageous at others. But never dull. And one last thing....Wibble!

Im often popping on the ferrari forums moaning about how i cant afford one.

Wow…Butlins! We are stuck with Parkdean, youll be sure that Billy Butlin and Stephen Mulhern are going to get a letter from me though!

In all seriousness, I think £80 is a good price for what the event actually is and what it’s trying to achieve. Currently, I can not afford it at that price and being honest I wouldn’t even be able to afford it at half that price right now but that’s because of a young family and other issues that need addressing.

I wish for and I am sure that it will be, for the event to be successful.

Glad it gave you a chuckle. Not sure why you assume someone expressing an opinion about value for money is only doing so as it is unaffordable for them?! On the other hand what’s so funny if some fellow supporters would have loved to go but are unable to pay £80.00?

There are many people, including those who have said so on here that £80.00 is excessive and there are others who consider it good value. I guess the true test will be whether the event is a sell out.

I have wished Adam all the luck in the world with this so not sure why anyone resents a contribution to a subject which may actually prove helpful in the planning of any future such events.

Chill my friend, I don’t know why you are getting uptight about it!

Just go and enjoy the Alty end of season awards bash and be happy.

I’m very chilled thanks and couldn’t be happier. I won’t be able to attend the Alty bash (as you call it) as I live in the beautiful paradise of Thailand.

I was only trying to be helpful and constructive to Adam, event organisers usually welcome all and any feedback. But I guess you also resent those complaining about the price increase in season tickets and would also accuse them of only doing so because they are unable to afford to buy them?!

Maybe it’s you who should chill out, be less uptight and less judgmental and resentful of others and their opinions?

Keep well and keep warm.
