    At first I thought you meant me for going on about how crap Man City's Legends Suite is.

    I was about to hack into this site and delete you then at the last minute I realised you were talking about someone else!

    Good question.

    In general just about anything in life can be improved, no matter how good it is, and our Legends is no different. However, I honestly believe it is better than Man City's for the reasons in the other thread, so I would leave it as it is and concentrate on other areas of the club.

    If you force me to pick one thing I would have to say "advertise it more" (although recently this has improved). I've tried to persuade the club for years about this but it was almost impossible to find out prices, availability etc on the website (the old one I mean, don't get me started on the current one).

    My understanding is that there are about Legends 80 places, of which about 30 are sold, I think. That's an income of about £29,000 for a season, against a potential income of about £77,000 if it were full. It works out at about £42 per match, although because some cup matches are included it could reduce to £38 if we had 2 home cup matches. That £38 includes a programme, worth £3, car park, another £3, free refreshments, probably worth another £3. So it then reduces to about £29 if you were going to park your car and buy a programme anyway. There's also the pre-match and after match talks, previews, summaries etc and interviews with the man of the match and the chance for photos and autographs, which you can't put in money terms. And it's better than Man City's version.

    I'd like to guess that there are fans who would try it, but just "assume" it's too expensive.

    Yes, the one thing I would improve is to promote the Legends and tell people about it. Apart from that it's fine.

    I didn't realise it was so cheap (ok not cheap but reasonable) when you take the car park, programme and refreshments into account. Do you get seats in the stand or just inside the box?

    You've just of course proved my point! I honestly believe that people don't know about it.

    It's not cheap, it was £960 for this season, but the various fringe benefits do eat into that a bit as I said earlier.

    You can take your pick about the seats, it's the same price. There's an area in the upper tier wher you can go if you want, otherwise you sit inside. Which of course some people don't like because of the percieved lack of atmosphere, although there's a sound system for that.

    Just to add there's a proper bar with DRAUGHT beer (not warm bottles at £4 like at Man City) and they do bar meals at around £7 (fish, pony burger, steak pie, horse lasagne etc all with chips). The bar's not cheap but no different to what you would expect.
