And the small print is saying £415, on the Kop, is League One pricing too. But with a realistic chance of promotion, not a guarantee because it’ll be Jan/Feb time. So it’s still essentially League One pricing. Last season £450 was Championsip pricing for this club iirc. What is £380 and £395? What comes after £415 if we don’t go up? £450? So we’re back paying Championship pricing but in League One. Nearly £100 more than what he says himself is ‘League One pricing’ for this club. It should’ve been £365 until the end of Jan. Have a month off, the £400 in March/April. There’s your gamble as a fan, the pictures clearer and it’s a much fairer way of doing it. He’s asking people to gamble on league position 20 games into a 46 game season. Spot on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiking the price after a week, 2 weeks before Christmas? Nah completely the opposite. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bloke is a complete and utter conman, sadly we have fans supporting him over who should be their brothers in arms. WAWAW? Nah for some it's WACAW. It’s a fine line unfortunately for us fans. We love the club, and will back them no matter what, and that’s where chansiri has us by the balls.

Daavies; Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I don't believe a word he says. It's just utter rubbish. This isn't for the fans at all or he would just wait until February like every year. This is a need cash quick thing 100%. Can't stand reading any of his interviews. You can see even after all this time, that he still thinks we should be loyal to everything he says and does. You can almost sense just how little he actually thinks of us. Football clubs across the country take their fans for granted and I can't wait until we have a regulated independent body controlling football. So muppets like Chansiri would be held accountable for their dreadful stewardship. #ChansiriOut 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatter Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 3 hours ago, areNOTwhatTHEYseem said: Poor old Dejphon, eh? He tries to do something nice for us customers and we throw it back in his face like the ungrateful sods that we are. When will we start to recognise all that he's done for our club? Seriously though, Holt makes a good point regarding the need for a PR advisor, but for me the key point is that Chansiri was told by others at the club what the reaction reaction would be, yet he ploughed on regardless. And then I ask myself why...is he oblivious to their advice and believes he has a better understanding of the fanbase, or is there a part of him which actually wants to stoke supporters' ire so that he can play the wounded victim in the press again? Because there's a definite pattern emerging here... Is there anything to suggest that Chansiri would listen to a P R Advisor? In all his time as owner of Sheffield Wednesday he’s done exactly as he pleases regardless of offers of advice from several quarters. More to the point, several knowledgeable football people have quickly found the exit door slamming behind them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing but a thinly disguised cash grab. Because now it’s abundantly obvious that the prices were always going to go up on Jan/Feb , regardless of the fact Chansiri has clearly hinted that this seasons pricing structure is a sustainable model for the club. Aside from a cash grab, the disguise is also on the fact that if you’re bringing price frozen tickets out this early your strategy is clearly for the prices to be going up, significantly too by the looks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs a PR advisor, but I doubt he'd listen to them any more than he appears to be listening to the rest of the team he's assembled.

Nah, he's doing it for himself "Loyal" supporters are simply a get out excuse I think if he says "loyal" enough times in his dialogue of confusion the fans will agree wether there loyal or not!!
