I've had one since Dr Jo.
A bit of cake would be nice for the long service.

I’ve renewed , gave up one seat mind as the youngest couldn’t be arsed to go anymore. I’ve warned him it’s probably gone forever now, he shrugged and started talking about “FIFA packs”.

Just signed up for another year. That’s 40 on the bounce now Covid season excepted. About time I got an invite to the directors box.  I’ve probably put more in than most in there
You're right there. I think the club should acknowledge longstanding supporters like yourself...or even myself as I'm now up to 30 years as a STH.
A cake?

I don't know about a cake but an offer of a ticket for the first match after lock down would have been a reasonable consideration for your most loyal 'customers'.

I agree! We covered this pretty well at the time but it still bugs me that I couldn't attend the first game back after over 30 years of loyal "service"!

Imagine the scrum if we ever got to the FA cup final

Teams got a 30,500 allocation last season, so this year would be a good time to get to the FA cup final. Won't be long before we've got best part of 40,000 season ticket holders.

One reason we have kept renewing is that it used to be possible to get FA Cup Final tickets as a reasonably regular attender, but we are pretty much on the Season Ticket Holder only cusp at the moment, and even that might not be enough soon!

Got to love the optimism of getting FA Cup final tickets or not. Given we’ve been to 2 finals in 65 years.

That’s a fair point - I might not even have a reserve ticket next time!

Not really bored.
Just wondering where they are and who can gain access , I know Holte End lower can access the Holte Suite at Half Time but wondering how you go about entering the Holte Pub as it looks closed off, front gates shut , bouncer on the back door and the windows covered in plastic sheeting. Not very inviting at all.

If it's not very inviting, why would you want to enter?

Well , they got me .

Was completely against renewing out of principal after the Zone changes + increases but as deadline day approached I gave in and you will all be pleased to know I've renewed.

Now to cut back on other non essential subscriptions and 'treats' to cover it

I expect better than 14th , that's for sure

Well done Flin.  The H&V gathering will be all the merrier for it.

I agree I also expect better than 14th.  Infact, unless there's extenuating circumstances (eg injury crisis or finishing the season really well) then I'd probably sack him for anything lower than 8th.  With the amount we're spending we need tangible progress.

I don't think it's the amount we're spending but rather that we're spending it on 'now' players rather than on future prospects. With the exception of Kamara, all Gerrard's signings are of an age where you shouldn't expect them to greatly improve.

And we've been there before
