How on earth can you say that with any surety?
I think it's an excellent idea BP but as it's an excellent idea there's absolutely no chance of anything like that taking hold. Not while it's football season anyway

I can't. I would put my mortgage on it being true though.

All it would do is encourage current ST holders to buy earlier at a lower price.

Any increase in the number of ST holders would be slight and even then they would be paying a much reduced price, hence reduceing the overall revenue generated from ticket sales.

It may also put people off buying a ST if they can't get it in October ("just coz I disn't have time/money to get my ST in Oct, why should I pay an extra £40 for it?!"icon_wink.gif

The beauty of the 'pledge' scheme that Bradford are operating is that is gurantees they maintain their current ST revenue, as reduced prices only come into operation if there are significant increases in the numbers sold. This in turn gives ST holders an incentive to encourage friends, family and colleagues to buy a ST as it may end up saving them money.

If I recall , current season ticket deal :-

I paid them £ 50 and all I got was a ' chuffin membership card with my mug -shot on the back and Alkers on the front gurning at me.

so the chances of a £60 deal are about as slim as me being named as the next Mr Cheryl Cole , unless someone slips a copious amount of Liberty Cap Mushrooms in the directors Teapot.

let us all in for nothing ,as a farwell present for all the years we have paid for watching rubbish , i bet the gates would go up then , or better still do away with season tickets for kids and oap s and charge us adults an extra couple of quid ,i for one wouldnt mind paying
