| He did ring me back saying that he couldn't save Buck and Dusty and guess what two months later they survived.

| I used the facility a number of times last year hence I thought I would use it again this year that is how I found out there was no discount. Propably would have booked the season long deal. Our group of 6 (all season ticket holders) paid £25 per head for the facility. I phoned the club and left a number of messages asking someone to come back and guess what no one did. I emailed Gus last thursday and again no reply. Seems the club have the season ticket money in their back pocket and need no further action. As I say I used the facility often but at £40 on top of the season ticket there is not a snowball in hells chance I will use it this year. I may be wrong but I dont think any of the 6 of us will. It was ok value for money at £25 extra but extremely expensive for an extra £40. It is over the top compared with the meals you get in a restaurant and as I say I already have a season ticket which givs me a seat and I can buy a programme. What good is it advertising comfortable seats if people will not pay such a high cost to put bums on them. Gus think again before you kill off something else. You killed off the very popular £10 meal for both home and away supporters you are now killing off affordable hospitality for fans do you want any fans at the stoop or are we just an inconvenience

Floundering is this weeks buzz word when describing exactly how out of his depth this guy is"

| Would be surprised if it goes ahead on Sunday due to lack of takers!

| Gus has just returned my call and I have always been a staunch supporter of him and su defended him afainst a lot of arguements but he has broken even my faith in him. He has said firmly that if a season ticket holder wants hospitality they will pay the same money as a non season ticket holder. He cannot or will not understand that people who have paid to support this club with season tickets and are probably a hand full of old faithfuls will get no benefit whatsoever.
He has already sold 50 hospitality tickets for sunday and therefore sees no need to discount season ticket holders. However if you can pull out a wad of cash up front for hospitality every game there might be a deal but it would mean attending every game otherwise the deals is no good to you.
I feel he has our money and sees no need to listen to us now.

We have been taken for granted for a long time. Hence the move away from the Stoop, he is only interested in mythical new fans. He could have deducted a tenner and still made money instead he choses to lose goodwill. The customer is always right!!! How many hospitality sales will he lose amongst loyal fans. Bizarre.

| What is this club thinking about alienating the very few regulars they have. These are the very people who have supported through thick and thin. Its a good deal for me never having bought a season ticket because of shift work but I can get hospitality cheaper than a season ticket holder when I can attend

| Be like me and a few others and dont buy any game tickets - wait and see if there are any freebies about, with the way the team and performance has been the last few seasons there have been plenty freebies.. I have kept my money in my pocket and if I choose I can have cheaper hospitality. Seems the less you spend the more they revere you. Weird or what

Oh really - probably a careful choice of words. Notice he didn't say 50 for the Legends Lounge. There may be 50 from Selco and other people in boxes but I doubt it is the £40 deal or no deal.

| Why is it a CEO who is trying to build up support for the club is willing to up set his bread and butter fans. Why would a season ticket holder be willing to pay more for a pretty average meal and a free program to someone who will only probabaly attend one match a season. Wake up Gus you are killing this club by having on the road games in Kent, stopping the £10-00 meal, charging season ticket holders 30% more for hospitality and moving away from the Stoop.
I thought long and hard this year about renewing my season ticket I will not be doing much thinking next year, already this year people who have not renewed their season tickets have been offered 2 free tickets to the Widnes game and can get hospitality cheaper. What a way to run a club no wonder the super league clubs have over £50 million worth of debt

| I am pleased I am not the only person who finds this treatment of season ticket holders hard to swallow. Like the other poster on here I will think long and hard about buying a season ticket next year, why would I bother there are better deals without one. If we move to Kent I wont have to make any decision I wont be going. It's too far a journey for me, it would write off most of the day.
