It's frustrating not to be able to show our vocal support to the club with things going so well for us on the pitch at the moment. I'd hope that the Board, Manager and players do know we're right behind them by looking at social media and the like. But perhaps we could give further evidence of that support by going for a record number of live streamers and 50/50s against Yeovil this weekend. Anyone know what the biggest live stream 'audience' has been so far? Whatever it is we should aim to top it!

Sometimes they display at the end of the stream. The club podcast stated 1700 for the Altrincham game

2800 for Wrexham I saw. They usually discuss is on the podcast.

Think it's been as low as about 1200 for Maidenhead maybe, not sure on last night.

Thanks for this. Could we top 3000 for Saturday?

I really feared for a moment you were going to suggest people go and clap at their doors at a five to 3 on Saturday.

It will need advertising to be that successful but I don’t think JR and the new players are unaware of what the feel good factor is around the team.
God I hate this league.

I had a dream the other night...we sealed promotion on the last day of the season & 10,000 fans converged on the technique to party the night away on the street’s #delirium

I dreamt last night I was inside a full stadium and was crying tears of pure joy. True that.

I doubt it. The 2800 for Wrexham would include a lot of Wrexham fans as they have a decent following, plus families will watch together and only pay once. Be good to get a bug push on 50/50 tickets though.

I've tried to do as many as i can. Maybe they would benefit from just selling a streaming "season ticket" like many have done in the NL I'd have snapped that up

Unlikely, but if by some miracle it happens then that might give us a net income approaching 65-70% of that of a live crowd.

If we get the Sports England loan, which the Trust says gives us security, then I'd be up for paying another couple of quid for the streaming - in line with at least one other club - to show my support and help consolidate the finances. If we play like we did on Tuesday it's value for money anawl, win lose or draw.

I think I am correct in saying that Notts County gave you an option of what you paid when you bought their streaming. Plenty would pay another couple of quid to watch and if 2 or 3 were watching they might want to chuck in a bit extra. I would have 3 options £10 £12 £15.
No pressure - you buy which ticket you feel comfortable with.

I guess that's what we are trying to do with the 50/50. An easier (more commission free?) way would be to do that and sell stream, stream + match programme, stream + donation etc online.

That's assuming inplayer are on a flat rate per stream, not a revenue share deal

Good idea.
Time to get the Supporters' Charter thingy up and running so ideas get an airing.

Yes upselling to a willing audience is a smart move. When you purchase the stream why not have an option there and then on the screen to purchase a 50/50 ticket or programme - or even just chuck in a bit more like the Notts County model.
