    Anyway, I've still renewed but this is an ominous start. So it looks like I won't be at the first two home games of the season then!

    Season tickets and supporters mean far less to a club than Sky TV and other events! I will watch league 2 on Saturdays when our fixtures are moved like the Watford and Blackburn matches.

    From a financial point of view, once you start missing a good number of night matches, the cost of match day tickets versus the season ticket is comparable which means the season ticket is purely a convenience (though it can be passed onto friends, though strictly shouldn't).
    The downside of having a season ticket is that you are stuck in the same stand all season. At times I would like to sit in another stand other than the Smethwick (even if it were to cost me a couple of quid more). Season tickets don't allow this. Without a season ticket for the forthcoming season I now have the flexibility of deciding which stand to go in, cos guess what, there are always tickets available, we never sell out.

    The positive about being in the same stand in our case is that over the years we have become friendly with those sitting alongside us and behind us. All are renewing. (8 people)

    From a selfish point of view, I wish they would move the Blues home game on the 14th of September, as it it clashes with my wife's birthday.

    Probably won't renew our season tickets. Far too many games not being played on a Saturday at 3 pm. Travelling from Leicester for night games isn't the most pleasant of journeys and as so many others have said, far too many games being altered to accommodate Sky which make it difficult to plan for.
