I'm feeling football hunger pangs this morning.  And worked out that the time since our last game is now roughly the length of the close season (early May to early Aug).  Maybe the football alarm clock is ringing?

We need some transfer gossip then Cheesy

If they eventually do get promoted it's hard to see him getting games in the championship maybe just protecting their asset

Not a chance of that happening, to put into perspective were making preliminary plans to maybe go back to the office 1st September with 20% capacity. And that's only if things improve, and it's unlikely they will. Juxtapose that method to sports. virtually impossible.

RE: Yates. Surely just Rotherham doing the sensible thing and ensuring they get a good transfer fee for him when he signs for us, instead of him leaving on a free. He's 24 in November.

Cue us getting him on another season long* and then signing him on a free the following year  Cheesy

Just out of interest, did anyone manage to get a refund for any away tickets that they had e.g. Walsall?

Thanks.

Yes Bob I would be interested to know the same. I emailed the club today asking for a refund for Walsall away...

I think my dad had bought tickets for whatever our next home game was - Crawley at home? Do you think he'll be able to get a refund for these?

The club policy on this tickets for this season (and next) needs releasing soon.

It must be being worked on right? Other clubs have.

e.g. Walsall are refunding thier fans with individual tickets (in time)

Any supporters who have purchased individual match tickets for the remaining home and away games will be able to claim a refund as and when the Banks’s Stadium re-opens.

Some other interesting options in that link for ST holders. One hopes Town will do the similar..

Indeed. Obviously there will be some people who have been hit hard financially by the Covid crisis and they should be able to get a refund with minimal fuss but I suspect a lot of us would rather the club kept the money (so we can increase the chances of keeping the club) so would be good to see some kind of option for that. Like the idea of, say, 25% off next season's shirt as I suspect that would cost the club very little in real terms given the horrendous markups on replica kit, but still enable fans to see some value for their donation.

Anything like refunds will means bringing ticket office staff off furlough, so I'd imagine that'll only happen when we start selling STs for next season again.

I'm £600 down on hospitality with Macc on the last day. Of all the clubs to try and get money back from....

Yeah, I guess that's what Walsall mean when they say 'when the stadium opens'. Seems fair enough. October will be crunch time though good lord I hope we get into football before then.
