Its the way the "Initiative" has been presented outta the blue..its like a dctat mate...Why not throw it out earlier, test the water?

It looks desperate, you already have worries over cash flow, players wages and another points deduction

after last year, its bound to looked at with a jaundiced eye

Agree with that. It does smell of he’s arrived back from Thailand, emptied the petty cash drawer and quickly gone outside for 20 Bensons lent on the Gold Elephant, scratching his head and sweating like a scouser in court.

I stopped believing anything this Chancer had to say a long time ago.

 

Whether it be his promise to continue investing in the team if we carry on paying higher ticket prices.
 

Whether it be his claim our money doesn’t pay for anything on the same evening he had earlier claimed we have to pay high ticket prices if we want to see good players.

 

Whether it be his claim he only invested into the team to make sure we didn’t get relegated from the Championship and not to get promoted to the Premier League.

 

Whether it be his claim that fans online comments had prevented a multi-million pound sponsorship deal into the club.

 

It’s just one thing after another with this guy.

Oh if he's gonna charge as we play, like a price per performance..

I'm owed a reight f.ookin' refund on a countback to the sodding 70's!

They should be paying us to go.

A well intentioned offer, executed badly.

It Still don’t make sense to me. Why not just do the same but instead of doing over Christmas, do it after? Him keep saying it’s for the loyal fans over and over don’t wash it for me. He could have easily don’t the same but at a better time, and it would have made no difference what’s so ever. 
 

I honestly wouldn’t give a flip if he left tomorrow, and we got someone who’s not got as much cash, but he actually thinks about us fans 

 

i class myself as a “loyal fan” but I can’t afford this over Christmas with a small family.

Down a shot for every time he says 'loyal supporters'.

[@owlstalk]

Why does anyone need a season ticket for next season in December?

 

You can’t use it 

[@owlstalk]

I interpret ‘loyal supporters’ as those who give him their money 

Read the interview again but replace loyal supporters with ‘those who give me their money when I ask for it’

[Kopparberg]

He’ll always live in a different world to most of us. 
 

I don’t get too bothered about him anymore. If the club loses money or fans it’ll be up to him to sort out.

Nicked that. Sorry

[@owlstalk]

Has Chansiri refunded the loyal supporters he offered refunds to?

 

You know…

 

To show his loyalty back to them??

We have fans who put Wednesday near the very top of their priorities - and he probably knows it.

Read an article on Yorkshire Live, Chansiri is doing it for all the right reasons.   He's doing it for the loyalist of fans of all who get the reward of frozen prices, instead of paying more later in 2022.

 

If people are less loyal than others, then I think it's perhaps right they get punished for it.  Time to hit those less loyal in the wallet.   No desperation from the club, just sound business judgement and a full understanding of the customer base, focusing especially those who are loyal. 

in what world does it prove good business sense to ‘punish’ your customers.

 

Surely making it as attractive as possible for your customers to spend money makes sense in any industry.

Just read the article and still believe it is due to cash flow problems.

If someone owes you money but never repays you. You would never trust them again, then to add further insult , the cheeky f.ooker asks you for more!!!!!

I think the fundamental bit some people are missing is that he isn’t saying renew now, or else lose your seat. We’ve got 13,000 that would renew if we were playing in the North East counties league. The spin on this is that he wants money through the door and those 13,000 have the opportunity to buy at a cheaper price. It’s one of those glass half full/empty conundrums. 
 

I do think it’s one of those DC initiatives that’s got shot down because it’s from DC. If he offered free beer at the match people would complain at the plastic glasses. 

Please stop saying it's cheaper! It's not cheaper. It's the same cost for 1 week only. After which is bloody more expensive.
