Season Ticket - Early Bird...........

    Just noticed that I have missed the early bird season ticket renewal.

    Been trying to ring the clubs useless box office number after the main switchboard say it “not possible to transfer me”. If that is the case it’s the worlds worst switchboard system if you can’t transfer to a number which before wasn’t a problem.

    So after missing the early bird offer, I may not renew. Why should I after having a season ticket for 16 years pay more?

    Some loyalty going on there.

    If they had put the price up from teh start would you have got one?

    The reason they won't transfer you is that 01226 211211 is local rate whereas 0870 is national rate and the club earns money from it. Then charges you a booking fee.

    I think the offer is a bit of a joke but there's no excuse for not being aware of the deadline IMO.

    You been on something?
    how have you missed it?
    if you renew now its only about 30 quid more.

    And thats the point of the early bird system, reward them who pay earliet.
    Doesnt matter how long you havr been a season ticket holder, how long you have/havent lived in SY and it doesnt matter that you enjoy a couple rxtra on a friday night.
    The systems the system, the rules are the rules and thats it.

    He calls himself a fan but might not renew now he has to pay a measly 1.30 a game more because of his own mistake of not knowing the deadline. Don't see how the club are at fault.

    Yeah I don't see how this is the clubs fault, they have advertised the deadline date for ages.

    It's your own fault you missed the deadline, but £1.30 extra a game isn't really that much....
