21. Author: cammypar 1995 Date: Wed 30th Apr 2025. 07:05 No real value in a season ticket these days you only save a handful of games and most will miss that due to other commitments so can see why people decide against it. The problem with that for the club is games on a bitterly cold January or end of the season games with nothing to play for will keep them away. I know 2 guys who haven`t bought a season ticket due to work and stopped going in the mcpake days as the standard of football was rotten. c'mon the pars Reply
22. Author: JTH123 Date: Wed 30th Apr 2025. 18:36 I`ll get one again but when you factor-in home tv games and the odd holiday and £5 entry to bring in the punters, I`m probably worse off than paying walk up. Its less hassle than buying a ticket every week I guess. Reply
23. Author: Parfect69 Date: Wed 30th Apr 2025. 18:47 When I’m skint at the end of the month at least I know I have the football to go to. Probably spend it on more important things if I was paying at the gate. I shall be renewing this year as per 🏁🏁 Reply

Don`t think there is anything in the original comment that will surprise people. Going to football games is expensive. Buying season tickets in a one off payment when you know you are going to miss more games than you save in this current climate is a no brainer to some. If your paying per game (walk ups) and it`s freezing, midweek, meaningless or we aren`t playing great that can put fans off. It's probably the same for every club. c'mon the pars Post Edited (Wed 30 Apr 19:59) Reply

Try posting something positive for once in your life What negative about it ? It`s a situation that some fans find themselves in. It`s a fans forum if you`re not happy with other posters opinions then feel free to ignore it but I`m unsure what makes you think you can tell posters what to post? Strange mentality. Anyway back to my point. There is nothing negative about my post it`s unfortunately the way of the world that people are looking at things they can cut back on and most of the time season tickets are the first to go. With it being a large one off payment and if they don`t get any benefit from it i.e. missing more games than half a dozen or so you save by buying one they find it a non essential. c'mon the pars Reply

You are correct for you Cammy, but there are many reasons people buy season tickets. Mine is because I am in the NW and tickets are at a premium in that stand. Probably more so this year. I sit with people I like and enjoy the banter to the players and the fun in the stand. It made it bearable and even enjoyable when we were murder. So that is my reasons. Just as your opinion is valid, I am providing a counter to your opinion. Reply
31. Author: da_no_1 Date: Wed 30th Apr 2025. 21:34 Ach I`m being a dick again. Just a bit annoying that folk seem to want to down everything to do with the club, including next season before it`s even started. Must try harder not to react.

33. Author: GG Riva Date: Thu 1st May 2025. 06:44 Perhaps there should be a greater incentive for fans to buy a ST. In Serie A, fans can save as much as 40% on walk up prices at some of the smaller clubs. I don`t know if this reduction is achieved by a combination of also inflating the walk up price. I think the Bundesliga may also offer substantial savings - Big T and Co may be able to confirm this. Getting money in pre-season allows clubs to budget for the upcoming campaign and maybe bring in players they otherwise wouldn`t be able to afford. On a side note, is there any way we can reduce the lengths of quoted posts as happens on the EEB? When posters get involved in a ding dong, as has happened above, it gets a bit tedious having to scroll through it all. Just saying. 🙂 Not your average Sunday League player. Reply
