'"
It's worse than expensive ... it's taking the p/ss!
Adding insult to injury!

I'd want a Superleague type coach and players who are 'names' for that.

| Not backing P Cooke fully this season, has been the biggest mistake.
He could have and probably will be a good coach if backed properly.

| Quote: The Prodigal Don "I think the club have missed a trick here. They have a large group of disgruntled fans who are losing interest. If they had come out with a good season ticket offer they could have kept these fans invested in the club.
Now they are going to have an up hill battle trying to convince these fans to attend and pay on the gate.
I won't be buying a season ticket for the first time in years and that probably means I won't be attending at all. '"
There may be many, I'm certainly considering being one, who say £110 now or £130 when we've got a better idea of the calibre of the signings, do you know what, I'll risk £20 to see what happens but then still reserve the right not to spend the £130 at all if the product looks questionable.
As you have rightly suggested, it's then an uphill battle to get people to come and pay on the gate when they haven't committed to attend (by purchasing a season ticket).
Alternatively, people may simply take the view that they'll pay on the gate for the first 2 or 3 games and if they aren't happy with what's served up, they can walk away with no further cost incurred.

| for the first time in a very long time I wont be renewing mine, wife's or sons season ticket.
It's not about what is being saved etc, its about what has been served up since buying last years.
1 win, poor performances, no transparency, no idea what's happening ref investment etc. add into mix changing start times after purchased tickets to 2pm.
7 year old has lost interest as not seeing any wins, wife has attended about 4 games and i've missed a few but not many (because of start time)
i'm happy to write off a few games cost IF being served up a quality product - for the first time ever i'm just not going to follow blind faith, I bust a gut for my earnings and travel 45 mins every week to attend. That's my choice as is the one not to renew, I will play it by ear and if nothing improves then i'm better off in my pocket...

| £130 is daylight robbery and proves us fans are just cash cows, the prices wont encourage new fans and on top of that could lose 50+ current season ticket holders. Why not make it super cheap hence bigger crowds and more potential for revenue commercially? surely there's a few routes the club go down to raise the profile, The club have let the fans down massively but still want us to fork out good money to watch mediocre rugby well good luck with that. If carl or club doncaster continue to ignore the facts and what the fans are saying the side will be running out to 350 fans next season!

| I dont think the Chairman and CEO realise how much this season will effect the club going forward.
The season ticket price is scandalous for what is bacisly amateur rugby .
Speaking to Mr Scarrow after the last couple of games ,its the same old drivel, "NOT OUR FAULT ,UNDER ESTIMATED OPPOSITION ,BIGGEST BUDGET,HAVE TO LOOK AHEAD, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH ".
After all the Sh#te spouted at the beginning of the season I had high expectations for the coming campaign , with players looking to be full time
inside two years , and challenging for a place in Super League with-in four.
Most of the players are not Championship standard and look like they cant wait for the season to end , most will be winging their way to pastures new come the end of September back to amateur or Champ 1 clubs.
If Club Doncaster really want this project to work then we need to look at professional management in key positions,
and just as in any normal business if you don't perform you are held accountable and ultimately sacked.
Make the season tickets a reasonable price and the fans may still show some faith in a club that seems to be losing its credibility as a sporting venture in the town , otherwise I fear the worse.

| Apparantly some new players names will be released the week commencing 7th Sept. They cannot name them yet as some are still attached to clubs.

| Season tickets and summer rugby are for me incompatible, i shared a ticket this year with my son on the basis that both of us will miss at least one game due to holidays and the other could use the ticket, in the end we have two unused tickets where we were both on holiday.

| I would urge Club Doncaster to put pressure on the Dons to release the names of any quality signings before the Dewsbury game.
From a fan's perspective, where is the incentive to buy one?
"Roll up buy your season ticket, on the back of (a projected) record of losing 37 of our last 38 games in all comps, and with no-one of ANY note signed yet ... you know it makes sense!"
NOT!

| I would agree SO they need to announce something concrete otherwise ticket sales are going to be very very low as there is a huge amount of apathy around the club, if they have agreed to join us then why are we not announcing them its common practice in every sport only yesterday it was announced that a HKR player is joining and Australian club next year.
Are we afraid of upsetting other clubs or is it all just smoke and mirrors?

| I've spent the past few weeks mulling this over and (probably against better judgement) have decided that I will renew my season ticket.
The phrase 'last chance saloon' screams out loud though and should we not be competitive during 2016 and challenging for promotion from C1 the Club can have no complaints if the phrase this time next year is 'enough is enough'.
