I sit in a little group of about 8 who have been ST holders for years. All of us are renewing more out of habit than because we want to.

Queued for most of the half time break in the townend and no cold drinks left. Shocking. Very unimpressive and lost income for club.
I could understand it as it's the last game of the season and they are rubbing down stock, but hat's happened twice to me earlier this season. They eventually dragged some pepsi max from the drs at half time on one occasion. How can you not have any when you open up FFS! Suspect it's mostly just disorganised/unsupervised catering staff

All I want is a club to be proud of again. A bit of success would be nice, but this charade of a club has smothered everything I used to enjoy.

Didn't speak to one season ticket holder yesterday who is renewing.
Weirdly, before the game yesterday, I spoke to 4 very old mates who have all been going since the 70s and 80s and all of them are renewing, they just want to watch football every Saturday. That is despite me saying what going on, as again none of them had any idea of anything being "wrong" behind the scenes. Its obviously not well enough documented or publicised out in the public media away from twitter and forums. None of my mates use any form of social media other than dabbling in some Facebook groups, and for so many on there its just one big happy Clem family and any dissenting voices get shot down quickly by the "we should be happy with Clem as at least he saved us and we still have a club" group.

But early bird goes on until end of may. There's no rush, so I guess we'll see thereafter. Gives the club time. Seems unlikely we'll be signing anyone before then I suppose

This is something I've missed, I gave up my ST & stopped going because when we moved to Norfolk it was a 4 hour each way trip, so picked & chose the games to watch, which diminished over the past 2 seasons because of the crap we've been seeing on & off the pitch. I really miss the matchday fix. Thinking of going to Cambridge next season, just for the live footie, plus they give veterens discount. Always be a Town fan & will still watch when I can, but will have to be selective, not as young as I was & the driving wipes me out!

I get that fully mate, I only live a 2 and a half hour drive each way and thats too far most of the time. But I do miss the social thing with match days a lot.

They can have fun with 4k crowds next season then. I wonder if these people will wonder where 6k people fickrd off to.

Not doubting your sincerity one iota. However, can you substantiate that? More flesh on the bones? FWIW, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Someone said they'd heard 387 or something the other day. Would like this to be true.

As I said, early bird is a late one this year. Think last year was a slow start too.
