No. I don't think those people want a return to the times of DA (no one in their right mind would). You're the one who is equating the two.

Pathetic and like I said at the time of the offer absolute dummy spitting of the highest order. I boycotted hillsborough when Dave Allan took the wee wee out of our fans. It will be interesting to see how the fans spin this as a positive because it’s absolutely disgraceful. We we are in some very murky waters right now. I boycotted Hillsborough (eventually) when Dave Allen was in charge and still won't got to his venues in Sheffield now. However as childish as this is offer was and is it isn't in the same parish to what Allen got up too. Chansiri has led with his chin which you should never do but I can't be offended by this - not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poite Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Refundees should be allowed to buy another ST but they will be made to sit in that corner where the TV box goes. That way it will be easy to identify them and for the North Stand standing crew to pelt them with sausage rolls. Everyone's a winner that way. All fans in the ground Guaranteed entertainment every game Increased sausage roll sales. Mr Chansiri, I'm here when you need me Sir. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so mate yes People have received emails with this 'offer' in it and posted the terms offered Sky Sports would get their news from an RSS news feed or the official website Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the one who is equating the two. Just to clarify: I think that Chansiri, for all the missteps, flaws etc, isn't the second coming of DA. For one he has put in substantive investment and I do honestly think he wants to get the club to the Premier League. Whether you agree with his methods of doing that is another thing. Allen on the other hand...well, I'd like to post my thoughts on his efforts but I think it best not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southportdc Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Chansiri offered everyone slightly different terms so he knew where the leak was. KennyPowers55 is on the real hit list. Everyone else will be welcomed back with open arms. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonycunningham Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 And by the way I've got a season ticket for another season and the thought of watching Dave Jones & Butterfield playing together for us makes me want to stick pins in my eyes - I'm no happy clapper.

Just think we are in danger of everything hitting the proverbial fan if we are not careful. Incredible amount of distrust fostering on both sides.

Guest Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Wow, talk about a polarised topic. Fans having a dig at each other. This will most likely come back to bite him one way or another. In his defence, there shouldn't be an "entertainment" value attached to season tickets. As loads have already said, you pay to get cheaper tickets and other perks. On the fans side, the ones who are taking up the offer. His remit(iirc) was to get us back in the Premier League and to do that he needed help selling more season tickets, offering the 3 year deals etc, putting prices up in general. This gamble has spectacularly backfired this season and some would say the back end of last season as well. Obviously not all fans want a refund because of that turgid style we have had to put up with and i'm guessing there are a multitude of "supporter defined" genuine reasons for asking for one. In my mind this doesn't make them less of a fan than someone who has had a season ticket for 30 years or so. What about the guys who committed for 3 years. Do they get a massive refund or just this season and then banned for the next 2 years? Sorry if its already been posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Well obviously if it’s for financial or health reasons then that goes without saying but I thought the offer was made to people who are unhappy with what’s on the pitch or behind the scenes? Who mentioned anything about other reasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striggy Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Cannot keep up with the speed of the new posts coming in, and having nearly caught up I am going to have to log off and get some work done, or I will get fired. If that happens I may have to take the offer up Keep posting all, I have a free night tonight to catch up. "nobody told me there would be days like these!"

Our chairman shouldn’t have made the offer and is responsible for the mess it’s causes I’m talking about the people who have been moaning about this season and are fed and want a refund.

Blow the cobwebs off the black balloons etc. Have i got this comment the wrong way around then? are you actually saying the guys advocating this offer and saying fans are right to have season tkt bans are asking for the "bit Dave"? My point of view is that every time the club announces anything atm (whether it's good, bad or somewhere in between) there are a relatively small group who seem collectively lose their sh*t and try and whip up a mass frenzy. There appears to be just a level of distrust towards whoever owns the club. Equating Dave Allen to Chansiri is a good example of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
