I get that, I just don't understand why you happen to be logged out constantly. Like literally every time I post. It's hilarious you keep up this pretence. I don't expect an answer, as you tend to ignore things when you know revealing the facts would embarrass you.

I'd point out that I made a relevant post to the question at hand and Grist was the one that couldn't help but subtly drag it off topic. I'm not the thread hijacker here, just a wiling participant.
Me and my dad were chatting about this yesterday.
With bury going out of the league we had 23 league
home games.
In hospitality, Divide the cost of the season ticket into the 23 games Inc vat it's £53 per game.
9 of us share a table For the games we have missed were looking at just over £1900.
"11.Season tickets are non refundable. The club will only consider refund requests under exceptional circumstances, in writing, with additional supporting evidence. These refunds are not guaranteed and are at the Club’s discretion."
This is the term that legally protects the club from refunds, but that is for season tickets. I don't know if commercial sales will be covered by the same contract so you may have more legal protection. They may also be more willing to refund commercial tickets even if they don't have to if they think it will retain your custom in future seasons.
I originally posted this thread really as a food for thought because it is an issue which will be for all clubs in some way.If next season's matches are played behind closed doors then I would be willing to carry on paying for a season card if I was able to watch on ifollow.However if the current season is curtailed then surely there should be recompense available for those who so wish for whatever reason.I realise that any reduced cashflow for our club doesn't help BUT it is ultimately a business and we are all paying customers.Tony Stewart (and I have a great deal of respect for him) has said before that it is a business and run as a business.Take the ground ownership as an example.It doesn't belong to the club but a separate company owned by Tony and his family.The club are charged rent.When the day comes when the rent charged surpasses the cost of the stadium (plus interest of course) the stadium will surely not revert to the ownership of the club.
Don’t think anyone can complain if the ST goes up in price. It’s been kept at the same price for the last two seasons so no complaints from me. It’s almost nailed on it’s going to increase due to the lost revenue of late.
One thing I will want back though is a refund for the end of season dinner tickets, if it doesn’t go ahead due to social distancing.
It’s a fine line Brin
For want of an easy maths example, if a £300 season ticket goes up to £350 then it appears a gain of £50
However if one fan stops going because of the rise then £300 is lost and that cancels out the gain from 6 of the higher season tickets.
Add to this lower attendance numbers and the concourse catering and other profits go down.
Employment will crash in or around the Rotherham area and football will be an expensive habit, plus should we go up (and traditionally struggle) then home fan numbers will dwindle.
