    Flexi ticket would be better for me because I could nominate other people to use my ticket. I go through phases where I want to be at every game then some when I couldn't care less.

    It's nothing to so with how much they get paid that's the issue imo. They should get paid - obviously.

    It's the fact that they're looking at buying another club. They're not having my money when they're doing that.

    I will buy a season ticket only if I can attend matches though.

    "They" don't want your money. "They" have asked you to consider letting the club retain your money, and have given you a couple of options whereby this might happen. Your money isn't going to "Them" and it won't be financing a different acquisition.

    Just for the record, I'm currently undecided. But if I do claim the refund, it won't have anything to do with how I feel about "Them".

    I won't be claiming a refund either, as I said earlier.

    But I won't be renewing next year until "they" have gone.

    Apologies, mate, I thought you were talking about the refund.

    Could be a long wait. Not that I wouldn’t like to see em bugger off. Would personally like a fans consortium. But obviously with the clout and nous. The only reservation I’d have. Is would a fans consortium have been able to cope with the present issues. ?

    No worries. I did throw a paddy last night and it could easily be misread.

    Good description mate. ( I looked it up to remind myself of the meaning) :)

    unstinting, uncompromising refusal to engage in a serious and charitable way with views other than their own. Their lack of respect for other intelligent people. Their lack of regard for evidence.
    Can be more abrupt than that. But these bits I like.

    I don't know the answer to any of those questions you asked to be honest - all I know is that I've never had more of a disconnect to the club than I do now.

    Whether that's the break in the season I don't know, it's just how I feel.

    That reply without an explanation was even shorter than the one for DStenders departure
