JM1 Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 The only thing is (I think) QOTS have to agree to the ticket prices too. So if they fancy a wee unexpected windfall, they might request it's at least £15 a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted December 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Failure to progress here would be our worst result since we lost the league cup quarter final at home to Ayr United. Having seen QOTS twice this season, I don't think they will give us much problems here. Especially if McGowan's playing and our top players reach their potential. I will say 3-0 Saints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 I ain't paying 50% more than a ST holder for this game. That'll be 15 quid less for the two clubs. Also, is it not a kick in the teeth for the QotS supporters, or am I missing something? An own-goal by SMFC in my view. Should have been a tenner for all adult tickets.

shull Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Thanks, although it should be £10 for all adults. I would guess plenty non Season Ticket holders spent hard earned cash supporting the Team at Palmerston. Give them a break also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash is for a good cause anyway. I'll support my club, Ian, but not at any cost. I don't do blind loyalty. Too often, clubs rely on a slavish devotion and rip the pish out of supporters on this premise. I'm not a mug, and I am of the opinion that it is sometimes appropriate to take a stand. That is what I'm doing here. Oh, and I can think of many other "good causes" that would benefit from my 15 quid.

Drew Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Their ST Holders pay £10 too FFS, so I am being charged more to support my club at home than an away supporter, despite the fact that I also travelled down to Dumfries on Saturday?

HSS Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Drew,if I remember correctly the tickets on Sat were £16.It's the same teams,same competition,only thing that's changed is the venue.Why do you think this game should be treated differently to the original?

My main issue is that supporters who would have considered attending are being treated differently. I think it would have been a decent gesture to drop the ticket prices for all, but to discriminate against people - including those who attended the initial match - is very poor, in my view.

Should have been a tenner for all adult tickets. would have been ideal at a tenner across the board but I cannot quibble at what both clubs have come up with. As a ST holder, I never get upset when other tickets are discounted at the end of the season to try and encourage a crowd. A number of ST holders did complain... and maybe this just shows that the club now listens to fans? Not that long ago we were charging wheelchair users AND their carers silly money... fans complained... that was addressed. Rather than look at what the are charging for a season ticket holder, why not just ask yourself if £15 is acceptable for a game of football and base your decision on that?

Ayrshire Saints Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 It works both ways as season ticket holders routinely feel aggrieved when perceived savings are erroded by cut price league tickets like the package deal offered over Christmas or post split games. That said I don't think most ST holders purchase to save money so it's a bit of a mute point. Still not sure it's the right approach mind you.

It is my prerogative to interpret it how I choose. I'm aggrieved at having travelled to Dumfries to support my team, this is thanks I'm getting in response. I'm not asking or expecting anyone to support my position, but if the club think that alienating sections of the support is the way forward, that's their look out. It is a replayed tie, and I would have expected everyone to be treated equally regarding admission. Edited December 3, 2013 by Drew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Gilhooley Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 OK i understand that our ST holders have put money up front for the club but why should QOTS fans get the discount ahead of Non ST holders like myself & many others ?

Drew Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) OK i understand that our ST holders have put money up front for the club but why should QOTS fans get the discount ahead of Non ST holders like myself & many others ? Absolutely this. In any event, I had a ST for years, and received discounted admission to matches. I didn't expect to be rewarded for this. I was benefitting on a number of levels and also felt I was doing my bit. I have no problem with ST holders receiving benefits, however, but this leaves a bad taste.

Cause QOS need to agree to the deal. Their fans are entitled to the same deal as our fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
