It also says something about the tickets being non transferrable. Again, I'm not sure what difference it makes? The ticket can only be used once, as it is taken off you at the turnstile. Therefore does it matter if the person whose name it is allocated too attends or whether someone else attends in his/her place?

The seaon ticket gives the HOLDER the right to attend the home games. In theory, if you lend your mate you ticket when your on holiday the club will be losing out on £17 of income as a result of your mate not buying his ticket. In the past people have given the match vouvher to their mate so that they have there season ticket ready for attending the next game. I know its been in the booklet for some years but Ive heard that this year the club will be clamping down on it.....no full booklet = no admission.

See what your saying about the club losing out on £17, however, if it comes down to my ticket being left unused come the end of the season or me giving it to a mate for a tenner then I know what's more likely to happen!

If the club were to refund any unused vouchers from the season ticket booklet come the end of the season then it might be a more difficult decision.

FWIW I'm not a season ticket holder this year for the first time in 15!

If it did, I know a few more people who would have bought one. They havent, quite simple because at the moment its borderline on the games they will miss added to which the possibility of missing more due to Sky towards the end of the season.

I'm in that boat!! I missed 3 home games last year because of Sky moving games and holidays etc... As at present the club don't refund the money for games missed my season ticket went to good use!
