21/22 Season tix

[arabesque]

If I'm reading this correctly it's possible anyone using discount will possibly not get to early games as they'll not be a priority in a ballot. Has to be reasonable chance that they'll be social distancing at start of new season with attendance possibly about 3000.

Ill renew early, no doubt make a donation, but don't think anyone legitamilly using discount should be "punished"

Yep, they’re moving the goalposts from last year’s offer, no question. As you say, anyone who takes up the credits offer is being ‘punished’ for doing so in other ways. There was obviously no mention of these caveats last year when it was introduced and I fear there is a lot of good faith built up that will be lost amongst some supporters with how they’re now approaching this. Maybe it was just too much of a financial risk to take, but I really feel they should have had the courage of their convictions and allowed the supporters to make the final decisions rather than effectively take it out of their hands. Given that choice, I am certain that the vast majority of fans would have waived their credit rights.

I still think most of the support will wave the credit it's our club it is the club the money is going to not someone taking all the season ticket money like our resident diddlie pete would have us believe the money is to run the club.

What??? You mean peter is talking pish?? That’s an outrageous statement to make!!!!!

The bottom line is that I think they should have perhaps demonstrated a little more faith in fans to do right by the Club. We all realise how bad Covid has hit the team and how v1tal season ticket money is. Yes, some would have taken the credits but I believe given the choice the vast majority would have waived it. ‘Trust’ and ‘Bond’ are intangibles that have value way beyond simple cash - some of that has been lost through this approach IMHO.

Has not changed my opinion in any way or doubt guys I go with either. were all going to renew and none of us were taking the credits good to see we are getting a few benifits but would have done it anyway as think most who can afford it would .Again feel sorry for those who can't afford it.How do our prices compare to other clubs?

Don't think it is trying to punish anyone think it is trying to reward the supporters that are helping the club the most which is really fair enough.

Not sure I can agree. Sat in same seat for nearly 30 seasons. Great bunch of guys around. But if someone wants to use discount they will lose their seat?

It's an easy fix. Seat guaranteed and equal shout in ballot.

They stupidly offered the credit not realising how much it could hurt the club and yes they should honour it too those who want to take it up.I f you have had same seat and want to take the credit then fair enough agree you should be allowed to keep same seat but the ballot is a reward for the supporters that are helping the club the most if everyone decided to take the credit we would be kind of f..cked next season so those deciding not to take it deserve any benefits that are going.My opinion only.
