Pale Rider Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 3 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: YES Of course it is If the chairman is banning people from having season tickets because they apply for a refund that he himself publicises then what next? Are we going to announce a new pie on the food stands and then ban people from ever eating there again if they take it back because it's cold? This offer was unnccessary One overriding thought I've got today is this If Mr Chansiri thinks that he's ever going to be able to control the gripes, moans and complaints of football fans he will very very quickly realise (hopefully) that it's like trying to catch fog The majority wont gripe, as they understand the unwritten Ts and Cs. The glory hunters have their money back. That seems a good solution to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob1601 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I suspect the reasons for not publically disclosing the T&Cs are because they shouldn't really be said. At the end of the day, no refund should have been offered. The stuff after is not good business sense. It just gets people's backs up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzy logics Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) Is this really that much of an issue to whip up all this fervour and some of the semantics on here? I don't think so...a refund offer with conditions has been made, people will either take it up or not. @@owlstalk this needs shifting into https://www.owlstalk.co.uk/forums/forum/108-sheffield-wednesday-tickets/ Edited January 9, 2018 by Fuzzy logics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrrodge Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 The offer should never have been made in the first place but having got to this stage DC had to try and limit the refunds given and that is why he has put these conditions in. Nothing good has come out of this and I hope DC learns from it as he has a lot to learn when it comes to running a football club. i don't think anyone is ungrateful for the millions he has pumped in but some things he is getting so wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HirstWhoScoredIt Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Surely most supporters that have asked for a refund have only done so because the Chairman offered them a refund. I can't imagine that anymore than a handful of people approached him for their money back before he made that offer. Therefore, the whole thing just seems absolutely nonsensical to me. Why on earth make an offer of a refund to the whole fan base when hardly anybody has asked for one? And then say, but if you take the offer up that I have offered, you are banned from ever buying a season ticket or membership for the rest of your life. Why would anybody do that? It just makes no sense whatsoever. What makes it even more puzzling is some fans supporting this absolutely bizarre behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semedo's ferret Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Farcical from the first person asking for a refund to the chairman making the offer to today's conditions. Another own goal scored by the club in a season to forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its what you punish people found guilty of hooliganism or racism at a match. Dave Allen wouldn’t even have been that petty But they aren’t loyal are they if they want a refund on a season ticket. That’s the complete opposite of loyal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's applied for a refund and why? I personally have no idea Could be someone who's had a season ticket for 60 years for all I know who is in dire straits financially and has took up the offer once Mr Chansiri advertised it all over the official website (which then went onto Sky News) I personally dont' know who's applied for it, whether they were serious or not, and why they did So I'll reserve judgement on those people entirely I'd have thought other Wednesday fans would do too Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any little flower that suddenly decides, “we’re not winning all the time, I want a refund”, they’re the ones that want their heads testing. After pumping millions into the club and regularly engaging with the fans personally, despite spending half his time thousands of miles away, if I was him I would be more than a little p.issed off with some of our fans reactions to this season, I think the bloke has made a few mistakes yes, who flamin doesn’t? he’s not holding a gun to anyone’s head is he!! and his heart is in the right place, his “who’s with me?” attitude is spot on, absolutely spot on! If you can’t hack being a fan of this club, see you later, enjoy Man City! You're completely missing the point. It should have never been offered in the first place, and to offer it and hold back the 'terms' initially was a joke. He's creating divides between himself and the fans. Are you happy with the way he's handled this whole situation? He's created what should be a non-issue and we're now a laughing stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassetts Allsorts Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Out of curiosity, how will the club enforce the ban? I imagine It's pretty easy to create a new client ID and buy a season ticket using someone else's debit/credit card. P.s I'm not 'asking for a mate', just interested if they'll be treated the same as those banned from Hillsborough due to hooliganism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the complete opposite of loyal. I bet those asking for a refund have supported us for years and have their own reasons for asking a refund We don’t know their circumstances and instantly criticising them on a forum does no good.
