Charging more for an inferior product usually shuts the shop, and yes I am on OAP and yes I can afford the new inflated price but will I be there as often as before, I doubt it. Sorry Carl you got this one wrong.

| Quote: rupert bear "The article quoted above states the average weekly wage is now 549.80 !
Not in our house it isn't !
Many people are struggling at the momemt, not just pensioners. However i appreciate what people are saying. Maybe if we weren't paying out for all the free loaders coming into the country we would all be better off but that's going off the subject.I still think it's not a bad price though when compared with what you pay in SL to see past it Aussies etc.'"
To be fair we probably have more free loading English people than any other ethnicity. The likes of Rupert Murdoch (who changes his nationality to get his own way in some countries) has never paid any tax, like many of the wealthy English people who can afford clever accountants.
Lets not bring racism into the club's inability to get the pricing structure right.

But the kids will come and they me [for give] are long term and the future, as for a poorer product, I've watched some cracking games in the lower reaches of the amateur game, why ! because the ability of both teams are equal.

| Quote: weighman "Its the % increase thats the problem I think for both season ticket & match day prices.'" Very old saying, pay peanuts you get peanuts, how will the club be able to move onwards and upwards if the loyals only want to pay peanuts.
How many home games does a season ticket cover ?

| Quote: Stand-Offish "Don't let facts get in the way of ill-informed opinion DF.
The three main factors they never had in 1950 are possibly.
1, people are living longer resulting in more pension money being issued across the board.
2, The jewels (Gas & Electricity) in the crown where sold off by the conservatives.
3, We now have far more immigrates living in the UK claiming benefits.

| Quote: Stand-Offish "Don't let him sidetrack you into a separate issue.
Unemployment, poor pensioners, rich pensioners on company pensions are to be found everywhere.....Donny is in no way a special case.....although I would propose that we have a fair share of poorish state-only pensioners with top up benefits.
The point is that most other clubs recognise the concession and preserve it.
Donny is swimming against the tide and it is not justified.
And if they persist it won't be forgotten....and I for one will seriously consider not going to home games, instead just some away games..
And it is not that I can't afford it......it's the same principle that stops me buying beer at the Keepmoat when I know I am being ripped off.
Cue someone accusng me of moaning in another attempt at deflection.
Anyway...I will say NO MORE about this!!!!'"
We people like you I would just pull the plug on the club, what a whinging tw@ - have 1 less beer for Gods sake and allow the club to grow.

My mother and father are in a far worst group, the ones who's company pension take them just over the limit, this results in them having to pay full council rent, full TV Licence, Dental bills etc, do they whinge NO they just get on with it.

YOU need to keep off the drink with your late night insults...why you are hardly coherent.
Have you re-read any of your recent posts?
You have nothing to contribute whatsoever apart from insults and when challenged to quantify any of your rantings you don't...or can't.
You're not even a proper Donny supporter....and you come on here lecturing us.
Tune in tomorrow night folks for more of Marshy's p/ssed up posts.

| I started this post to let people who didnt attend the forum know the season ticket prices.
Please donot let this get into a slanging match , it does the individuals concerned no credit.
Big Baz (Supporters Trust ) has approached the club re the pricing structure , lets see if anything is changed as a result .

I would be very surprised if your parents paid for a full TV licence it's free for anyone over 75.
And
God-Forbid that your parents become really ill and have a bit put by in their bank account and own their own home----
That's when the care-home charges kick in at up to £800 a Week---would they feel like just getting on with it then--i doubt it.

I totally agree......but who came steaming in the with the insults first?
We're supposed to clam up while we are insulted are we?
That bloke holds grudges and it's plain as day.
It's like having a Cyber stalker.

Presumably that old that you can't even remember what the saying actually is?

12.
(2 NR Group games, 1 Chall Cup match and 9 League games I think)
I guess it assumes the RFL ratify an 10-team Championship One.
EDIT - Only 10 teams in Chamionship One.
