I've had one too.

In fact, I also had a call a few weeks ago saying that they had noticed I had been to a few games last season, and would I like to follow that up with a season ticket this season.



Now that's more like it !

Had mine too this morning, very impressive as I only went to a few home games last season but a stack of away games under someone else's (from here) name (though I did pay for the tickets with my own credit card!)

It's always nice to get something through from the club. It's also to try and get more people to renew, so hardly a waste of money, and certainly not something to moan about.

Opened it, was surprised that MON signature wasn't on it, threw it in the bin. Some will appreciate it, others won't.

As a kid growing up in the Aston area the club always sent christmas cards to the local residents. That was a nice touch and whatever reasons for doing this now, its still nice to get something frpm them. At least they're trying.

Nice gesture, and great photo choice in the middle but I can't work out if it's from  Bolton 75 or Spurs 77.

1975. John Deehan's on it.

I think it's a nice gesture. It may as well have been worded, "please come back".

Got to be the end of the 75/76 season hasn't it? The end of the previous season, everyone was on the pitch following promotion against Sunderland. The end of 76/77 Deehan was a star player.

just got mine in the post and was it not the youth team players with the placards. You can clearly see in the background Graydon in normal kit.

So some of the 74 FA youth winners at the Sunderland game ?

I got one. To be honest I am a cynical sod and the first words out of my gob to the wife were "season ticket sales aren't going well then".

It's the 'Thank You' banners after winning the 1975 League Cup final.

Got ours, only one between us mind.

I'm indifferent to it to be honest.  Maybe it's because my replacement Warwickshire members card arrived in the same post (a day bloody late so I missed last nights 20/20).

i'm in the nice gesture camp, although I do think they could have used the money to buy the new players!!!!!!!!!!!! (joke!!!!!!!!)

Wasn't the one to the right of Deehan a centre half (Charlie Young maybe)
and the one on the right end, Frank Pemberton?
