I will renew my pass, I have mixed emotions right now, overall I am pleased we finished 6th in the league (was gutted we never hung on to 4th), I was gutted about our performance last night it looked like a differrent team from the Leeds game.
I feel we have not been consistent this season and feel the biggest problem lies with our h/backs we desperately need cover in this area.
Our pack is fine we desperately need backs.

| Quote: Ian P "They are for the first time in a hole of there own making and the hole was made a whole lot deeper last night. Spin has been used to great effect upto now and maybe a top signing may placate a few, but they are up againts it now. Last night opened a lot of old wounds and many will oive with this for months, Rich and the majority of his playing staff can run away to West Yorks or down under whilst the rest of us live of a diet of humble pie for months.
They may not be so keen for extra helpings next season.'"
Seem to remember you post this at the end of every season ? We've a long way to go yet but have come a reasonable way this season. If you're not in for the journey get off the bus. |

Indeed. I guess if season tickets are down a bit next year he has to be right one time. |

| Quote: Mrs Barista "Last season although we ended the season on a downer, we had the much-hyped arrivals of O'Meley and Fitzgibbon to look forward to as well as Long and enabling a PR offensive on shirts with a big launch, overseas players arriving early for pre season, big push to get record season pass sales. End of season fans forum could therefore concentrate on the season of promise.
Will be interesting to see how the club positions next season if there are no signings forthcoming. I'm sure Rule will, quite rightly, focus on the progression from 12th to 7th and if the 2010 financial forecast is available and showing another profit, talk about our robust off the pitch position. Agar will major on Long and Horne not being available together. I'm sure once the disappointment of being eliminated last night has worn off for most people the appetite will return, but I personally think the club need to pull a couple of rabbits out of hats to keep the fans engaged to the same extent and in the same numbers this time round. Without a big signing or two I think this will be a big challenge.'"
It's a very interesting point, Mrs B. As you say expectation was high this time last year (we had "the season of promise" to look forward to).
Unless we have a big name coming in (which looks extremely unlikely) it's hard to see us match the push on season tickets and shirts we had last year.
Mind you, I'll be getting a season ticket anyway - which probably makes me a sheep in some fans eyes  |

I do not think they will be down..they went up after 2 dire seasons..however disappointed we all feel right now the fact remains we have improved significantly, still a lot of work to be done. People will get over yesterday and come February we will up for it all again 
We are the faithful  |

I didn't get a season ticket for this year, enough was enough for me last time round. Me and my Dad spoke about it on the way to the ground last night, considering whether or not we'd be coming back for one for next season. He was leaning towards yes, I still thought no, we're still too tedious to watch I'd prefer the option of missing some games without being out of pocket anyway. He seemed to have changed his stance a little on the way back.

[b:1g6itio7][color=#000000:1g6itio7]Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.; [/color:1g6itio7][/b:1g6itio7]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_663.jpg |

I don't have to be right, indeed I hope I am wrong
I am not wringng my hands in glee either
As for being on the bus it no longer stops at my street if you remember 
If you knew me better you would now that I do not suffer fools, idiots or those who resort to cheap shots when they have no effective arguments to offer. |

You've been saying the same for a few years. I was pointing out that it hasn't gone as you thought it would therefore your argument has failed to materialise as the reality. Suffer what or who you like how you like that's your prerogative. Sorry to hear you're not a fan any more we need everyone we can get.

We'll be renewing all 4 passes. Missed 2 this season through holidays, but a pass offers great value vs paying on the day IMO. Kids one is a no-brainer. Will be interesting to see whether the club is concerned that the hideous end to the season might impact the fans' appetite for the club in those who are more "floating voters" so to speak, and recognise that some action may be needed to keep hold of them.

Season passes will increase as vat goes up to 20% in january. So i can see them dropping plus the times the clubs on sky why pay for sky and a pass plus fans what rid of agar. Everyone knows half backs are the big problem but were do u find them and then get them to uproot to the area
