    Depends also on entertainment value

    If we somehow managed to scrape enough points to stay up with a few 1-0 wins anf 0-0 draws but continue playing 4-5-1 and produce football of the quality of the last few games I dont think I will bother. (might need to improve the defence a bit for that to be realistic mind)

    If we stay up and are playing entertaining football - like we were at the start of the season then yes another £25 is fair enough.

    that makes no sense

    they've already taken the biggest possible gamble by appointing a man with only academy experience to his name as manager

    I'd pay double

    and bid for all 11 shirts at the Player of Season do. And I'd be bidding against Hartog and one or more of my prawn sandwich eating friends.

    Seriously, £50 for a child season ticket and under £300 for an adult, snapped them up, dont understand why more didnt.

    Not sure if we are bothering next season no matter what happens. It is all getting a bit of a chore to be honest, even both kids are saying they might not be bothered ..... sad but true !
    We will pick and choose the games we want to watch.....and that means anyone not just Barnsley !

    I'll renew if we stay up but if not I'll not bother with a season ticket just pay on the gate for the few games I'll attend like Leeds.

    I'ld rather give up watching football altogether

    than consider going elsewhere.

    FACT.

    I'd renew

    And pay another £25, I'd probably even stretch to £50. But I won't renew for League 1 dross at the same price as this season.

    I don't think this thread is as innocent as people on here probably think it is

    It would not surprise me one bit if ideas for this thread has not come straight out of the board room
    The directors should know how much it is going to take to stay in this league before a ball is kicked
    If prices go up down or side ways the board should be there to explain why

    Threads such as these completely undermine Sheps standing at the club
    When the Big JD was in charge we built year on year
    OK, he hit problems in the last couple of years but on the whole it was progress year on year
    Watching Shep this does not seem to be happening
    However, the Big JD didn't have Ritchie to put up with

    Seems faiely evenly balanced to me Tina. Some saying yes and some saying no.

    I think we will stay up nothing more than a gut feeling like. Good luck to the new boys in charge.

    If this message board is read by the directors............MESSAGE

    Shep - get advice on running a football club i.e. a football director
    Pat Cryne - find an investor, someone that will share the burden

    Agreed Nudger but I think it would be far easier to find a football director than an investor.</p>

    You've already mentioned the perfect candidate - JD himself.</p>

    Bring him back to work with the present board and teach them how to run a football club.</p>

    I like a number of others will be there whatever for as long as I am capable - but that does NOT mean that I am at all happy with what is going on or with the way the club is being run.</p>

    And I won't accept spin and deceit from the club and just take it lying down.</p>

    My thoughts exactly

    And I said this to JD while coming out of the ground a couple of matches back
    JD would be a good addition to the board
    Whether he would accept it is another thing
    Plus - PC has had his fallings out with JD
    According to what I've been told
    PC asked if he could help a few seasons back and JD refused

    You look at the stadium now and think..............JD built this and he's only got not much more than a corner shop compared to some directors in football
