The two main issues appear to be a lack of clarity regarding season ticket usefulness if Covid-19 has a big impact (highly likely) on the 2020/21 season and the huge increase in Bar72 prices, with minimal benefit. The first one isn't really the club's fault - no one knows what's going to happen. The second one does seem poorly managed - pay 30% extra for a free programme and a pint or you'll have to sit in wings of the Club Deck. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see it might not suit some but in the grand scheme of things, how many people are affected by the Bar72 situation? Doesn't the 2-year option remove the price increase anyway? It may not be ideal for some but I don't think we should get carried away in condemning the club when it seems to be meeting the requirements of the great majority of fans, the Covid19 situation notwithstanding. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think standing still with the rate of inflations is going to get us where we want to be though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
