All the best to you and your wife, Chip Butty.

I still cannot quite believe anybody thought this was anything but a disgusting idea in the first place.

I'm just waiting for the invitation to 'come along to the Bayern game dressed as your favourite Nazi - bonus points if you guess Heck's. Hint: it's not who you might expect!' or the pre-game FGM tombola.

Haven't read the last few pages but in my opinion, Heck has to go before he does more damage to the bond between the fans and club.

There was a real buzz around the club since Unai came in and how well the team has done and this guy is destroying it.

There is a negativity bubbling under the surface and it needs removing before it starts to affect the performance of the team.

Heck out.

Chip butty,as a lucky cancer survivor, I can only wish you and your family well through this extremely difficult period. As for Mr Heck and his cohorts, is the overall plan to run down the stadium and move.

Chip Butty, really sorry to hear about your wife , its a horrible disease. Well done of posting, it must of took a lot.

Chris Heck has to go. Whether he’s a lighting rod for the owners is a mute point for me. He’s gone too far too fast with zero care for the support or the legacy he leaves behind when he inevitably shambles off to fleece another sports club.

Ive bought Bayern tickets for me and my two teenagers and Ive sent a complaint into the club, makes me a bit of a hypocrite I suppose, but more than anything I didn’t want my lad to miss out on this one. The fact that I know we wont be going to Bologna, possibly not Juve and Celtic, makes me sad for how the excitement has been ruined. But it’s indicative of the direction of travel since Heck arrived, take away what we formally had, charge us more for less, makes our experiences worse, drag the name of the club through the mud. Even if Purslow would off wanted to implement similar plans, he would have fronted up at least sometimes, not this bloke. This stuff matters and I hope the Holte leads the charge against the tosser next Saturday.

Chris Heck get out of our club.

Looks like Heck's trying to replicate the success of Man City in more ways than one.

I can't imagine your pain Chip Butty. But I am imagining that particularly excruciating pain which could be wrought by stomping upon a certain pair of strawberry blonde bollocks.

The really depressing thing is, the extra 30 quid per ticket or whatever it is across the board, in football terms it is absolutely peanuts. It is small fry, loose change. This is a club that has players on six figure sums a week.

But whoever it was that made the decision thought that whatever bad will this would drum up with the fan base was worth it, otherwise they wouldn’t have done it.

And then there’s the disabled parking. Someone thought that an extra £200 a season from a bunch of almost certainly the most vulnerable people in our support was worth the awful press. It was worth the anguish those people will be going through.

It wasn’t that long ago we were in the second division and they were begging us to buy tickets. The top tier of the trinity was closed more often than not.

But here we are, after a decade of being spoon fed lukewarm liquid dog shit every other week for a decade, the very first chance they get to start defiling people for money, they’re at it like a rat up a drainpipe.

The absolute fucking nerve of Heck with his £8k season tickets and his promotional video for all those wanky lounges, whilst at the same time people paying “only” 6 or 700 quid for their tickets are faced with truly disgusting unsanitary overflowing toilets.

It’s just really depressing that the second they thought they could do stuff like this, they went for it big style. Fuck the lot of us, like it or lump it.

That's the thing I keep coming back to - it just seems all so unnecessary.  Given the extra revenue that being in the Champions League brings, surely they could have simply made the games category A games.  Maybe bump up the price of the executive offerings a bit if necessary, but keep the other tickets within the current pricing structure.

They have scored a major own goal with this and have already massively dampened what should have been a really exciting experience.
