For the play off semi against Huddersfield it was £275 for a ticket, programme and a roast meat sandwich. Over £1k for me and 3 guests. No thanks. I never enquired again. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I have. See my posts in the Graph Thread. Tell me one thing that aids the club if you withdraw your support. Remember you can criticise the club all you like. Its the withdrawing support that I find negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's this kind of cap wringing attitude that ensures the club will never change for the better.

I’d hazard a guess at none The benefits depend on your personal perspective. I would rather have a solid, well run, club starting in a lower division if necessary, rather than being at the mercy of the various people/groups we've got/ had running the club in recent years. I want my club back, a club to be proud of that is passed through the generations. I have zero interest in get rich quick schemes or the "jam tomorrow" promises of the premiership 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restructuring under the current Chairman? who seemingly refuses to accept responsibility for nearly all our ills, refuses to accept the requirement for senior staff to run the club Or under a new regime that will see where we are and knows they must make changes to see a ROI?

An ROI is very difficult outside of the Prem, more so with COVID as a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
