how many people do you think would boycott season tickets? when we get promoted(touch wood) i think more will buy than this season. especially if they come up with some money saving options.

AFAIK, if a ST boycott is effected by the Trust/Consortium then they will guarantee early bird prices even if they don't take control of the club until after the early bird cut-off date. On the other hand, if the consortium don't get in during the summer then people eill have to face buying ST at full cost.

This season saw one of the highest season ticket take-ups in years thanks to Power, Wise etc. It's fair to assume very little movement if we get promoted because most that get them on the back of hype already have. So I'd say around 500 holding out would make a serious financial impact over the summer.

I for one will NOT give them any ST money at all. If it means I buy tickets on the day, thats fine by me.

Lets say that only 300 boycotted. You are talking about nearly 100k worth of revenue lost over a possible 2 month period. NO business could sustain that with very little other revenues coming in. Dont forget this will be a call for a boycott on ALL merchandise including replica kit sales etc, which could account for a possible extra 25k. With next to no revenue coming in and a hole in the operating budget of 125k...................they would not survive.

So that response is a blind lie?
seems a brave tactic on their behalf.
Is there any chance this could be a break down in communications somewhere along the lines? Will Bill and Phil be making any comment?

I just cannot believe that they have resorted to lying in this way in order to try and make the trust look like fools so they think the fans will turn on them, this tactic will not work, most people know what those idiots are like.
Actually i'm not really surprised they have done something like this as they are capable of anything!
