| For those of you who didnt buy this year after the debacle of last season, or folk who had the cheap offers but didnt renew at full price, and indeed anyone who doesnt have a season ticket has this season's efforts persuaded you to buy for 2014 ?
i'm interested mainly in those who didnt renew after last year, has your confidence come back?
If you have been one of the stayaways this year will you be back next year ?
I personally know loads who said they'd had enough last year and haven't or hardly been this year so wanted to know if their attitudes had changed.

| I live too far away to justify buying a normally priced season ticket. When they were cheap I bought one just to back the club and in the long run probably lost out as I didn't make a lot of the games. Once they went full price again it just wasn't worth the outlay for the number of home games I would get to this season.
Last seasons dip in form wouldn't have swayed me at all from buying a season ticket if I still lived locally because it was nothing to do with the players why we imploded last season but down to the fact both Browns announced they were leaving. This disrupted what was begining to be a pretty good season.

I know that me old mucker. Just saying if they brought in the cheap season tickets I'd probably get another one. People used the dip last season as a reason not to get one and it was an easy way out. Bet they're regretting it now though.

| I am in the same boat as Moggie.
Did not get a ticket but travel is the problem.
If it was cheap would get one to support the club even though i would still miss a number of games

| I think it is pretty much the same for local fans who can't make a proportion of the games for whatever reason.

| If I don't renew for next year won't be due to performance but flown to the fact my transport also supports Town and like everyone else he is feeling pinch, so buying season tickets for both is a very expensive item. If he has to forgo one, if I Giants Then I won't be Renewing either. sad But All down to money. Giants great season but Town also doing OK. So which to choose? Terrible decision I know. As I have posted before I can't stand football so know what my choice would be, only hope his is the same.

| Out of the group of four I go with one person didnt renew, and that was 75% due to economic situation - maybe if they had stayed cheap he'd have stretched it, but couldnt for various reasons.
Hopefully he will get back into it this season

| i think 3 people who sat with us didnt renew this year purely down to finance, of the 3 only one has been on a regular basis, not sure if she will get one next year but will still come.

Nephilim? Look in the only book worth reading.: |

| I personally could afford a season ticket but can't justify the cost. The half season ticket I could justify and so bought one. The same will apply next season regardless of performances on the field.
If they don't already do it then I think the Giants need to market themselves to different groups and not just aim at getting everyone to buy a full season ticket. Maybe a range of season tickets would help. 1) A full season ticket. 2) A budget season ticket which gives you 6 matches against lower opposition. 3) A mid range season ticket which gives 3 top games and 3 lower games. 4) A premium season ticket which gives you 6 matches against top opposition. The full season ticket should be priced to give cheapest cost per game. Next cheapest per game would be the budget, then the mid range and the most expensive per game would be the premium.

| The issue would be what you call "top" opposition. I would imagine most teams wouldn't have put giants as "top" opposition at the start of the year. (Wigan fans still don't!)

| Thats quite a good idea, i think a flexi-ticket is still a good way to go, 100 quid for 6 games of your choice might encourage more people to take the plunge, just dont include the same discounted offers like in the booklet and dont give a reserved seat.

| £99 for an adult season ticket behind the posts is a great offer.
around £7.60 a game it works out.
