    I've just looked at the link to the WBA website when half season tickets went on sale
    https://www.wba.co.uk/news/half-season-tickets-now-sale
    which started with games from 30 Dec onwards.
    The prices for U11 and U18 look appealing, I imagine that was the case for full season tickets so I imagine if you are taking kids there is a good reason to still purchase a season ticket.

    However for Adults only the incentive to buy a season ticket next season has gone.
    The ground is never sold out, we don't advance very far in the cups.
    There may be an incentive for away supporters to have a season ticket so they get priority (or is there an away season ticket?)

    Unless the club give an incentive to either existing season ticket holders or new ones for next season, there will be a big drop in sales.
    We might get back the £10 voucher for the club shop but it just wont be enough.
    Although its not their fault regarding all the rearranged fixtures, its gonna come back to bite them.
    There should be a max limit to the number of matches that are moved from a Saturday 3pm

    The trouble is if you are a broadcaster and paying big money for the broadcast rights you are going to show matches that have most appeal. In the Championship we were always going to be on a lot more than the likes of Barnsley, Peterborough or Luton as an example. Just the same way the likes of Liverpool, Man City and Man United are always most on the PL games.

    A very tenuous light at the end of the tunnel but let’s be honest, unless we start a miraculous change of form and start scoring several goals per game (ok I know it ain’t going to happen either), then we aren’t going to be picked for many more tv games between now and the end of the season. They will be concentrating on the top 6 to increase interest in their coverage of the play offs.

    Limit number of games to be changed is a nice idea but you forget that no one gives a toss about the fans anymore.
