Delivery just in



Anyone notice the that ticket office is completely hit and miss, different lads renewing have had different information depending on the person they spoke too. It can't be that hard to all sing from the same hymn sheet surely?

Will those in P8 have to deal with the sun in their eyes ?

On the very few times I've sat in the WLS, I seem to remember needing sunglasses and a hat

Don't think P8 is too bad as the roof is in the way but definitely in the lower tier it's a massive problem.

I renewed, and with the full interest free option available until the end of the month I will save roughly £40 on last season.
I did think a bit more carefully about it this time around - more to do with work and personal circumstances - but I like my seat in the Upper Trinity, and it's a habit and it's just about worth it for the savings and convenience. I'd still probably have a season ticket if we found ourselves in the Blue Square Premier.

I think most people would. I get the feeling that the reasons for those not renewing run a lot deeper than the team not playing very well.

I'm seriously tempted to buy one for the first time, £355 for an under 21 in the Upper Holte isn't bad at all... It's just working out whether I can afford the travel every week.

That's a big commitment, mate.
Having done North Yorks to VP for many years, the return journey can involve a lot of soul-searching.

I sat in the lower Witton for the Odense match, which was in July, and got burned to shit.

I know exactly what you mean mate. Me and Chico had season tickets the last season of Gregory's stewardship. Fuckin hell, the journeys back to south London were long. Very long.

I wasn't going to renew but just moved my seat from UT to P8 saving £200 plus on the ticket. The said in the ticket office that I just about got the last one.

On the flip side my wife and son have decided not to renew so all in all the club are about £900 light from me.

Not going to renew like the seat in the upper north but the combination of crap kick off times not the best football & the second little one on the way,Will still do around
15 home games will just get the cheap tickets on offer, Will prob not do the midweek games as its pain in the arse to get out of work from up here.

I don't find it too bad, changing at Reading and BNS... But going via London Euston for the WBA match nearly tipped me over the edge, as the train stopped about 56 times and took nearly 4 hours. I think the thing that puts me off going more often is the combined price of ticket and travel, but if the ticket is already paid for, I don't mind travelling. Then there's the added ballache of various kick off times, but I'm no longer contracted to work Sundays, so hopefully that won't be too much of an issue either!

I think the ST's are decent value for a young adult.

With the £285 saving, each, we should be able to afford some decent sunglasses / caps.
