We don't have to buy. It's a discretionary purchase. I think all of us buying a ticket are fully aware of the issues involved. Quote

As soon as the season starts with no fans the club owes fans money, where is the statement to say what they are going to? Quote
shull Posted May 30, 2020 Report Posted May 30, 2020 Maybe the Club thinks the fans will show goodwill and not demand refunds. Quote

Those who buy season tickets are well aware that they might not get into the ground and are still prepared to pay up front. What is difficult to understand about this? Quote

Of course they should, should not be allowed to sell tickets at present. Would you buy a ticket for cinema but sit In house if you could not see film without asking for refund? No is the answer, no difference, fans are mugs! Edited May 30, 2020 by Leatherface Quote

The club statement indicated that they were asking us to buy tickets without a guarantee of a normal season. I knew when I bought my ST that it may be the case that I wouldn't get the 19 or so games I had paid for. I am absolutely certain that most others knew the same. I HOPE to get in to see some games next season but we bought our tickets to help the club stay afloat. Quote
StanleySaint Posted May 30, 2020 Report Posted May 30, 2020 The purchase of season tickets now is the very definition of the distintion between fan and customer. Quote
FTOF Posted May 30, 2020 Report Posted May 30, 2020 Wait a minute. So we might not get to see some of the season because some of the games will be played behind closed doors? In other news, I've heard that the Titanic has sunk. Quote

Desperately Seeking Susans Posted May 30, 2020 Report Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) As I said in another thread; if games are played behind closed doors Buddievision could, or should, provide viewing for ST holders and generate further income by charging non-ST holders to view the game.

I agree. Free to our beloved ST holders and charge everyone else. Discounts do not apply to Smisa members and premium Smisa members should be made to pay double. Quote

Perhaps SMISA rep could suggest to the club that they look back on their records and allow those who have regularly paid early to keep their early bird discount in place until the new extended deadline expires and, IF possible, beyond this period to allow the maximum time for loyal, valued fans to purchase the ST for the stand they usually sit. Even if their particular seat is taken. ETA I thought more about this so I decided to write an Email to the club suggesting this. It may well fall on deaf ears but I hope not. Below is the Email I sent. Hi all May I say up front that we have already purchased our season tickets so this will not impact on us personally. As this is, as we’re constantly reminded, unprecedented times and many of your loyal supporters are furloughed and don’t know when, or even if, they will return to work which restricts their ability to pay for their STs, taking advantage of the early bird offer as they would normally, can I suggest the club look back on their records and allow those who have regularly paid early to keep their early bird discount in place until the new extended deadline expires and, IF possible, beyond this period to allow the maximum time for loyal, valued fans to purchase the ST for the stand they usually sit at the early bird prices. Even if their particular seat is taken. I firmly believe this would be fair and would be widely recognised as the right thing for a community based club to do. As it would only involve those who did take advantage I would think it should not impact too much on the clubs finances. I got a reply on this subject. Shows SMISA reps are listening. hope it works out for the loyal fans with what I hope is temporary cash flow problems. " Hi All Although it has been a few weeks since we received your email regarding extending the ‘early bird’ pricing particularly for previous season ticket holders, you may have seen that yesterday the club announced an extension of the lower price for everyone until the 24th July. This date is significant in that the league fixtures should be known by then and also if fans can actually attend games. In our discussions with the club they took note that when any early bird offer is concluded that consideration be given to former season ticket holders, (who have not yet been able to renew) for a further extension and that they be contacted by email by the club with any extended offer. Although a decision on that will be taken nearer the time, this will recognise the status of the lock down when hopefully former ST holders will be in a position to understand their own personal financial situation better. Thank you for your correspondence Stay Safe - COYS" Quote
shull Posted June 3, 2020 Report Posted June 3, 2020 Early Bird should be available to all, around one month before fans are permitted in the Stadium. So if fans are allowed into Stadium on 1st November then Early Bid should be available until 30th September. Club are at it. Lucy is a dipstick. Quote
