    Some of those would be expected IMO (same seat every match, exclusive gate, flexible payment plan) but I like some of the others, the Yanks definitely seem to have a bit more innovation and value their customer/fan base.

    A lot of benefits there.

    I'd like to this implemented but where you get beer and pies delivered to you without having to move and inch. Aslong as they're the Redfearns pies.

    I imagine it's a gate/turn style for season ticket holders where you don't get stuck in a queue behind the pay on the day crew.

    So yeah, we have ST and ticket holder turn styles already.

    Only downside is you have to watch American "soccer" in return.

    There are no cash turnstiles at all, you have to purchase ticket and have it printed out or on your phone.

    Seems it is more enjoyable than watching the Reds at the moment if you believe the comments on here.

    The best benefit is a guaranteed seat in the new stadium there building, which hopefully will be open for the start of next season which is about a year away.
    MLS season runs March -september/october

    I like that a lot of the benefits circulate around bringing people with you. That's something which this club is missing out on. An idea that could work for me is that season tickets can get match day tickets for others for say £15, and every time they purchase a match day ticket, they get a fiver off next seasons season ticket. With a maximum of say £50 or £60 a season or something?

    I really like that idea (the £5 off a season ticket, maximum £50).

    Only problem is, with Barnsley such a close knit town and a lot of people still paying on the day, the increase in attendances required to break even might be out of reach.

    I think the club have got a plan for next season in terms of rewards and benefits ....... we just need fortunes on the pitch to improve so they can launch them positively!
