Thinking about the AVTV free thing what if like my best mate you don't have Internet access how does he benefit from that. As i said earlier why not 25 - 50% off next seasons shirt as that is a benefit for everyone plus would help possible sponsors as more people would buy the shirt, whereas free AVTV is only a benefit for people with internet access which isn't everyone.

How many people these days don't have internet access?

Apart from Osama in that house in Russabbottabad, obviously.

He'll be too busy throwing rocks at planes to worry about it.

Interesting article here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2010/apr/11/bundesliga-premier-league

But it is not just the Bundesliga. If you look at the ticket prices for other European leagues such as Spain, France and Italy and you will find ticket prices which are much lower than the British leagues.

I know we are not the problem here. High ticket prices stretches across most of British football. It cost me £20 to go see Walsall a few weeks back for example. We are not even the worst suspects if you consider the prices at Man United and Arsenal. But what I would question is why our ticket prices have gone up continually as Villadawg's figures show whereas the rival clubs have either froze or cut prices in at least one of the seasons he has found figures for.

Yes, but that was 1978.

 Starting to play with myself again on a Saturday now so would more than likely miss half of the games anyway.


You can have a wank any time.

Plus, think of the money you'll be forking out for tissues.

My mates a Baggies season ticket holder, I asked him what benefits he got and he laughed and said fuck all, You get into the games, I think they may get a discount in the shop but that's it..People want too much these days.

You pay for a season ticket and you get into the games.

You don't pay you don't get in..Its quite simple

Only had a half ST this year.  Can't afford it now with two young kids.  Been dissillusioned by the game for a long time as well so will give it a miss, especially when it looks like another year of transition.

Most people in tele marketing are around that age.
