Suppoters need to know where they stand. Some will need to plan financially. Supporters need to be treated honestly and fairly.

sheffield_dave Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Reminder that Chansiri regards us all as customers and weights our quality as fans by how money we are prepared to shovel into the club. Wish you the best of luck with this, which I agree should be the fans too priority right now, but expecting him to consider value or adjust ticket prices based on performances/league seems extremely ambitious.

I think the club just need to find a way to unravel the mess they've created with the crazy, scattergun pricing initiatives of the last 5 years- if that means Chansiri refunding a chunk to the couple of hundred 5 year season ticket holders to bring things into line, then so be it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True,there will be a huge hole in those accounts he wont release and hel need our dosh to fill it in to try and stave off the forthcoming points deduction in league one.

We are working on various areas surrounding season tickets and ticket pricing. Please 'watch this space' over the next week or two for more details on it. We want it to be as well planned and timed as possible. In the meantime, some of what you discuss is mentioned in our most recent letter to Mr Chansiri. We encourage as many people as possible to take part in our #3forDC campaign. Share the message as widely as you can, let's see if the club come back with answers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually you can undercut them, unless it was a 5 year season ticket for the Championship and/or above. People who bought a season ticket for the championship will be not getting what they bought.

There are definitely ways and means that wouldn't necessarily mean the club needed to refund people. How about: Free tickets for Cup Games One game a season in the executive area/restaurants Free/discounted merchandise Bring a friend for free once or twice each season? Just needs some thought putting into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
