Suppose I'll renew, the kids will still want to go. I'd probably renew anyway in truth, but I've never felt more out of touch with the club and its lack of direction.
Can you pay the finance option off early - not that there is that much reason to do so other than not liking £50 coming out my account every month - I won't have the money until after 1st April... ---- A price freeze on last year for me, well I suppose an increase as the eldest no longer qualifies for the £30 ticket but that's OK

Interestingly, or not, our season ticket sales are still well above the levels we saw on our rise to the Premier League. Our attendances are about the same if you look at a 30 year average. Something structural needs to happen for our attendances to flap in either direction really, regardless of what a few people perceive to the "temperature" on the internet. Power isn't daft - if he saw evidence of a fundamental shift he'd react.
How's a fundamental shift supposed to happen without his involvement then? Isn't he the best-placed person to engineer one? In his defence, his apparent commitment to strengthening the fundamentals for the long-term may pay off, and this season's just a bump in the road, but his lack of appreciation for the value of the press, fans groups or the club's own marketing operation remain a blind spot.

I meant he won't change his approach unless the arse end fell out of sales which seems unlikely given recent history. A few people will moan on the internet but or season ticket sales are clearly ticking along as any other season.

This. Power's methods, direction club is going in, engagement with fans, loans rather than purchases etc etc - just not reason enough for me to not renew.

Stop fucking moaning you cunts Renew Calm down Bob Geldof I'll do it next week. The spark is still there for me. That, and I really hate Saturday afternoon shopping.

Don't think they'll accept that - cash, cards or installments only. No options to pay by relative

Think it applies to Nationwide as part of their sponsorship deal. Not sure about any others.

There have been plenty worse seasons than this one in the past 20 years and plenty worse people running the club as well.
This is the reality, however much people like to moan.
