Quote:They will have the 40 to 45 thousand of us who renew no matter what. They are left needing to sell close to 20K for each game and have had the same issue for years. If they win, that issue will go away with the fair weathers.

I also believe Marrone won't do much to entice anyone new to purchase. It's why Levis sells more than Wranglers. People love a name.

Quote:ugh, as a season ticket holder, I would disagree. They are going have issues energizing the fanbase no matter who the coach is, hiring from within and retaining many of the coaches would a disaster from a marketing standpoint. People want to watch winners. People have been calling for Bradley to be fired for 2 years. He went 14-48, the average fan isnt going to be happy when you tell them your hiring 14-48's assistant coach as the next head coach and retaining most of 14-48's staff. The fans have been sold the snake oil for a little bit too long. 

 

Fans pay and they pay to watch them win or lose. At some point, you have to draw a line in the sand though. People, including myself truly believed we wouldn't be 3-13 year 4 into this administration. People are upset, your going to have a hard time selling that to fans. Its the truth. Best thing this team can do is completely move on and go a different direction. You can stop the bleeding and can atleast sell that to fans who rightfully are frustrated with this team.
