BuddieinEK Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 I disagree. Children's ticket prices pitched to discourage attendance giving rise to the defence that kids don't attend.Season tickets not valid for a full stand knowing full well many will not want to transfer to another part of the ground.None of the regular incentives to encourage attendance take place.I think he has a very good point here.Everything is engineered to support the decision to take the easy money from the OF.

Let's see how many Saints Fans are at the coming and subsequent games against the big two. I think these numbers will be ahead of last season. I think also there may be more than we would get at other games. I accept that I could be wrong. Time (and other posters if I'm wrong) will tell.

I don't know anyone who attends who likes the decision but many understand why it was made. I'm one of those but don't accept the premise that it cant be changed. Easiest way is to fill the main and west stand ,leaving only the South Stand for families and roll up fans. It is possible, Sanctimonious git. GIAFR!

That is very possible bud..But if so, it says a lot more about our supporters desire to support than our club's desire to encourage them to do so.

proudtobeabuddy Posted August 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 It's not on because the club are admitting they don't want children subjected to the vile sectarianism at these games (let's be realistic) because we are.... wait for it!

No sweeping statement, good effort from you again but you still have no idea if you speak for a majority. I hope the fall isn't too bad when you again realise there is absolutely nothing you can do about this situation... Well apart from attend matches & sign back-up to SMISA to help BTB complete quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Guessing at numbers here, but let say they are 500 season ticket holders from the west and main stand never go to the bigots games. Those 500 then decide to buy their season ticket in the family stand for 2 reasons, no bigots games and around £70 cheaper. Cost to club 35K I might just do that myself next season, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing about this chat, it'll continue to ramp up with the same points over and over until a while after Sevco game then die down. Same will happen again next time one of them visits with nothing changes. We know it won't so it's pointless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Forty Clubs could make it work if they had the correct balls. The ones made of steel. Next Season the SPFL could have 2 less Clubs. And the 12 Teams in the Premiership would have a chance to win it. The Beautiful Game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
