What the club did before Christmas at such short notice was just plain wrong. And the inference was that you had to buy pre Xmas to make a saving. 2 hours ago, Ian said: No. It's a lie if you say "if you want the best deal then you have to buy before Christmas" - forcing many to perhaps forsake christmas presents or treats for their kids And then you offer the same deal after Christmas Thats a lie......its not lack of foresight, withholding information or changing decisions Its a straight forward lie 2 hours ago, @owlstalk said: Eh???? What I'm saying is the club never anticipates who things are gonna be perceived Makes bad decision Faces backlash Has no choice to change but to reverse the decision I think its bonker but I don't think it's lying. Neither do I think it's wise to start calling club Chairmen liars on social media without proof tbh 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many other clubs have even put their 2022/23 season tickets on sale yet? Why’s it matter you get a chance to buy cheap tickets and finance them or wait abs buy cheap tickets why on earth does it matter just like those that signed up for 5 years or 19 years or what ever they were why does it matter it’s an option that may suit some there’s different of pricing different offers different payment methods all which will suit and benefit sone people but sone people are crying like babies because it doesnt suit their agenda when the fact is however they buy their tickets they can do it exactly the same as they’ve always done there is a billion things to moan about Wednesday and have a pop this isn’t one of them it’s embarrassing to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can afford why not. As for excuses around Xmas expensive, yes I get, some save for it as it comes around each year and prices go up....just like ST'S. Just my opinion on this particular topic, can't always agree on.a forum. As for DC, just another owner who making a mess just like in the last 20 odd years. Anyway I'll keep buying our family ST's and yes on occasion enjoying the games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a shambles top to bottom. This reaction is a culmination of poor decision after poor decision not just the latest mess. It matters because I want Wednesday to be the best they possibly can for as many Wednesdayites as possible. You obviously don’t want or care about this, which is your choice, but you can’t criticise fellow Wednesdayites for wanting us to be better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said there’s a million things wrong with Wednesday this isn’t one of them and your right I don’t care the season ticket early bird meant squat to influencing me when and how yo buy a ticket I just can’t understand why people are making it a big deal if you pay on the gate you still can if you pay for it in preseason you still can if you pay for your season ticket in full in January or February you still can if you finance your season ticket you still can this is the same for every fan the club releases season tickets early abs everyone in the above category which in guessing is every one can still buy their tickets how they do ways did buying one in December shouldn’t effect them one bit but those that might want to buy one maybe even for a Christmas present this is a plus for them it’s like crying because your not first in line for dinner even though there’s plenty to go around I’ll say again there’s a million things wrong with Wednesday and to have a go at them for this really isn’t one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not the worse thing DC has done by a long shot, it’s the culmination of poor or down right ridiculous decisions that gets me down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the price of football is a disgrace to the working man when you are paying players what they get you could take 5% of the playing salary and use it to drop the ticket prices making it more affordable for everyone the working man is getting out priced more people are getting priced out abs not connected as much to clubs abs fan bases are shrinking as soon as clubs start Making games more affordable and getting in touch with the fans again the sooner we will see a rise in attendances across the football world I see no reason why we have stadiums 2ith 25-60% of their capacity sat empty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 I don't think the value of the season tickets is in question Value for money wise for the first phase of renewals for instance - decent pricing really It's more the delivery and the execution of how SWFC have treat the fans (again) 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 There are people who... every time the club takes the absolute pissss out of fans.. will excuse it So something happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc Then something else happens - they'll make an excuse for it, say it's no big deal and that people are crying like babies or moaning for moaning sake or that they have an agenda etc They'll say things like "Like I said there’s a million things wrong with Wednesday this isn’t one of them" They'll say "I just can’t understand why people are making it a big deal" They'll dismiss anything and everything that is an issue and make an excuse for it Never seeing the bigger picture Or even worse and more accurately, totally understanding the bigger picture but putting this Chairman before what's best for SWFC and their fellow fans They're fans of Chansiri these days 4 1 1 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
