i Follow revenue explained and other questions
- Thread starter Ottawa Green
- Start date
I think this is a really good move from the club - continuing with the promises of transparency. It'll be really interesting to see how many people are watching Argyle. It's hard to second guess.
The revenue sharing is also positive. I'd also be interested in how iFollow revenue stacks up vs the costs of having supporters in the ground/hospitality revenue. I think this ratio could seal the fates of some clubs if we get into 2021 with no fans in attendance still.

So will be interesting to see how many Argyle fans buy away tickets.
Wimbledon, I think, will be an example where we often sold out our allocation (1,000ish), so, a chance for extra revenue there if I am reading it correctly. Think we can beat that 1,000 figure comfortably.
Although we still lose out on historical numbers going to Home Park, but, exiles without season tickets, like me, watching will help boost home revenue.
On an unrelated topic notice the fixtures at bottom of this page shows Scottish EFL League One. Presume that is imported from somewhere?

It will be interesting to see how many people stay with it - depends on performances to a large degree ? Obviously Ifollow is roughly half the price of standard admission price. What the Club obviously don't get is the income from match sponsorship (I assume), sales of alcohol, hot and cold refreshments, food, club merchandise, etc. All of which together, even after costs of staff, etc. must be very significant. Perhaps there should be some form of fundraising run alongside games to compensate for the lost income, from a simple "tip jar" through to something like an online golden goal or forecast the score pool ?

I really like your suggestion - how about a virtual 50/50? Taking the payments and managing the process might make it untenable, but I wonder if it's been looked into?
I see the club are now doing a man of the match raffle, so they are obviously exploring similar ideas which is good :thumbup:
An interesting split, and being out of league two definitely swings this in our favour.
L2 and the crappy away attendances that clubs bring to us would not have helped, but given the bigger clubs (Pompey, hull, Ipswich, sunderland, rovers etc) we will do significantly better keeping the first 1000-2000 of the ifollow streams that they sell for our home games.
