Stay at home, be at the game

Hi all

I know at the moment we have no idea when or how football will resume, but when it does its likely to be behind closed doors.

Has anyone else seen this " stay at home be at the game " initiative?

Basically it involves fans having a cardboard cut out of themselves in their kits made for the cost of around £15/£20 and placed in the stadium you then get to keep the cut out after the pandemic is over.. A German club has sold 13000 to fill their stadium

The benefits could be 2 fold for argyle

1) make the stadium look a bit less empty for TV

2) more importantly if argyle can sell 2 or 3 thousand then there is a revenue stream to help a small dent in what is happening at the moment.

What do you think? Would the club consider it and would fans participate in great numbers to help their club get through this period

There is numerous articles on this including on the daily mail sport website

Definitely would do that. Something towards keeping the club afloat is obviously a good thing.

Imagine if they could install 2 cameras in the cutout's eyes (one in each obviously), if you had some VR equipment at home it would be like you're actually there in your seat.

Maybe they could install a speaker in each as well, you could have your songs from home broadcast.

OK going over the top there, but love the initiative.

Just saw what they’d done in Germany in this respect. Looks good.

I’m sure there would be plenty of Argyle fans who would be happy to chip in a few quid to help the club in some small way, an initiative like this would be a little something in return.

I’d definitely be up for it.

In that case how could I make this suggestion to the club ? Anyone have contact details for who would look at this?

Thanks i will drop him a mail and get him to look at feasibility under crowdfunding

I'm sure there are other benefits in this such as community engagement and raising the profile of the club

As Bob has said, you can bet your bottom dollar that Jamie will already be all over this idea.
