The current offer - helps to fill the empty seats at Hillsborough - helps to get rid of the remaining shirts - makes sure that nobody feels "stupid" because they paid full price at the beginning of the season - encourages people to buy their shirt at the beginning of the season instead of at the end I really like it! If you're going to feel stupid about that you aren't very smart. You have had the benefit of having the current kit while it was relevant. People who don't care about that get to pay less and wear an old shirt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would there be? There's a free match ticket offered as well as the discount on the shirt? Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not really a discounted shirt though if the match ticket is free. Probably works out about £25 for shirt and £25 for the match ticket. With that being the case then season ticket holders should be entitled to half price off the shirt IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would season ticket holders get additional savings on an already discounted deal? There's no reason Is it 'just because'??

@owlstalk Posted July 4, 2022 Author Share Posted July 4, 2022 You know what would happen if the club bowed to the pressure from the tiny handful of season ticket holders crying that they didn't get an additional discount just for being a season ticket holder?

Those who are happy to fork out hundreds on season tickets would generally be far more willing to part with a small(er) amount of money for a discounted out of date shirt, than those who pick and choose their matches would be willing to part with £50 for a ticket (of a restrictive amount of fixtures) and out of date shirt.

Every offer should be tailored to me and what I need, if it’s of no benefit to me then I’m going to go on all my social media outlets and slag the club off for not thinking about me and my needs Honestly some people are embarrassing themselves tonight And just incase any season ticket holders are feeling a little down and left out then here’s a reminder, season ticket holders get a guaranteed seat to 23 games at the cheapest possible price, that’s your benefit of your season ticket. if you want last seasons shirt for £25 then by all means don’t buy a season ticket, pay £50 for a ticket with a shirt so you feel like you’ve been rewarded then continue to pay an average of £25 for the other 22 games and come the end of the season you can bask in glory, safe in the knowledge that you got the benefit of a good offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beighton Owl 87 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 More importantly than this 'discount' does anyone have any idea when the new kit will be available? Season is only a few weeks away now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
