People will get on with it and not renew. It's not going to help true but it's going to happen and attendances will drop.

Sitting behind a keyboard and telling people to stop moaning and support the club is fine but reality dictates there will be a drop and the club need to address that if the finances are critically dependant on gate receipts as opposed to other income.

That's a fair point... The club definitely need to develop a strategy for the fixture changes..

Some people need to 'get over it' that people have opinions that 'personally' differ from their own.

There are many factors for the situation as it is, as has been stated by plenty of people on here. Sitting behind your keyboard as the self appointed thought police is jack all use too.

The club already have developed a strategy with announcement that any games changed to Thursday will result in money refunded on Thursday games that people cannot attend.

Some people can't do Thursday's, some can't do Sunday's, can't cater for every person all the time- it's life.
The club asked what the fans wanted and they said Sunday- unfortunately the clubs also decided they needed sky money- so we are in a situation where there is little consistency- no point folk moaning when they get what they want as well as when they don't!

The easy solution is do not buy a season ticket. Pay when you attend a game. Without The Sky money the Clubs cannot survive.

It's a real shame this. The club have put a lot of time and money into attracting families to games, Thursday nights are not family friendly, Friday nights are not good for young kids either, because of that I won't be renewing. Hopefully my interest will continue enough to pay on the day for Sunday afternoon games. Maybe when my family are older I will return as a season ticket holder.

just a quick one on this, has anyone thought to give feedback to the club? if you are planning on not renewing then maybe offer the club some feedback on why?
that way then at least the club have a general idea on why attendances, and /or season ticket sales are declining.
i'm pretty sure they would be glad to get the feedback, also maybe join the supporters association and use it as a voice?

Have done this before and suggested all sorts of options
half season ticket, sunday games only, options for choosing your games etc etc.

Loads of options mentioned time and again

Zero reception from the club

The issue isn't so much about what day games are on as the fact that there is ZERO knowledge of when any games are actually on beyond ticket holders

Take away a regular fixture time and then anyone but a ticket holder doesn't know when the games are so disconnects from the club

Answer? Advertising

Which the club never does

Oh well

I've given my idea's to the board face to face and they've all been dismissed instantly by Mr Thewlis in the past.
As for advertising, to be fair to the club in the past they have accepted this has been a problem and did ask fans to help by printing off or collecting posters/flyers etc for their workplace/local area but as usual there was a very poor response from the fans ...yes i know it's not the fans place to do it but it wouldn't harm just helping a little bit if it indeed did help the club, who had acknowledged they hadn't or couldnt do more in the past and we're actively looking for the fans to help. Fans won't help the club but then slate the club for not doing anything.

I'll do them a swap. I reckon I might get some free time if the club want to take my kids to football & swimming lessons, help me tour open days for secondary schools in West Leeds and fill in my daughter's preference form. Then they can reorganise my man-cave, get my windows refitted before the Winter draws in.... and do the extra hours I need to put in at the office this week. Hell, maybe they'll do me breakfast in bed and give me a 'livener' before I leave the house? After all, I'm their fan; I deserve it!


I won't bother asking for help with the Christmas shopping cos I know they're skint!
