Tamworthowl Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 1 hour ago, robster_owl said: Course it should have, or he would have been vilified for being ignorant to a % of the fanbase, would he not? He has essentially stood up in commercial brinksmanship and won in the main, I think it was a canny strategic move - quite possibly, assisting the removal of the loudest negative voices in the stands... how can that be anything but a win? Im not convinced that the loudest negative voices in the stand want a refund. Indeed, I'm not convinced that all those posting on Twitter & Facebook for a ST refund actually have a ST in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The culture clash isn't the fans fault, if you buy a football club you will roll with the praises through good times and will take the criticism during the bad. If that's a problem then he is bang in the wrong game I'm afraid. I dont want him him to go, I want him to realise he's not getting things right and to put them right, at this minute in time all I see though are his heels digging in further and further. Fair enough, can't disagree with the above as that is what 'most' either want to see, desire or secretly want but again, there is a large enough section of the fanbase who don't have the attention span to give for e.g. three or more years, it's a 'I want it near enough instantly' mentality, you know, self entitlement and there would still be similar, if in yet smaller numbers, if you could get into the ground free to watch - as there are level headed persons and then there are serial negative complainers, as soon as their self-entitlement doesn't fit the output (not just in sport by the way).

Best check before you sit down, might be some poo smeared on your seat I know you're joking of course, but... I do wonder if you applied for a refund and didn't go through with it, are you now on some kind of 'list' somewhere........?

matthefish2002 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 This offer doesn't make Sheffield Wednesday feel like the most welcoming club in the world. If you are head of an organisation and particularly one in the public eye like a professional football club think you should act a lot more dignified then banning supporters for having a season ticket for life.

sherlyegg Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 4 hours ago, KennyPowers55 said: Well played Mr Chansiri. Harsh but fair offer. I personally won't be pursuing the refund even though I enquired. I don't think many others will either But you enquired about a refund, presumably then without the punitive conditions you would have accepted a refund?

robster_owl Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 12 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: I'd say don't offer refunds of season tickets It's not that difficult to grasp really mate The Chairman has (in my opinion) made an error by offering tickets, by then adding the terms and conditions that he has done, especially this week with all the positives coming out of the club. That's it really. In a nutshell A totally unnecessary mess Well, in all honesty, it is when the two above quoted messages are somewhat contradictory. Anyhow, I shall now depart and things to do - lots of viewpoints, some agreements, vice versa but time to focus on Friday. Not who is right, wrong or indifferent... until the outcome of the fans forum anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
