    October 1966 that really did look a certainty.

    And now your money goes to paying the likes of Mellis, Kennedy and Dawson thousands of pounds a week. It's time the club repaid us for our support.

    Given that we would be among the Top 6 gates in the division below assuming that Wolves get promoted I'm not sure how that would translate into a bottom 8 budget unless I'm missing something here. aren't Wallsall about the 8th worse supported club in the division with gates of around 4,500?

    Season tickets will be very overpriced and poor value n the division below. I will still have one but come on it's chuffing ridiculous.

    The future is looking very bleak indeed. We had an opportunity to progress and year after year of stagnation have now come back to haunt us. I don't think we'll be back at this level for a very long time.

    I'd actually go the other way to get more fans in - existing season ticket holders the same price as this year but offer season tickets to people who have never had one or haven't had one in the last two years a ticket for something ridiculous like £100.

    Might not seem fair but it's a tactic loads of businesses use to bring in new customers.
