season tickets for next season

[Redskin]

Jesus Christ!

What do the people of Accrington want?.....Football league and Free football!

It's simple, if you can afford it makes sense to buy in advance and assist the club with it's cash flow, saving as you go!

If you can not afford, then pay as you go!

If you still want to moan, then go watch cricket or something!



This is good commercial sense from the club!!

[accymel]

Not exactly moaning but looking at other ways at generating the season ticket into more functional ways of getting more people to take one up - which would make better commercial sence !!! I take it you have no problems with affording a season ticket Redskin

Same ones every time. They moaned when it was a free game, They moaned when under 12s get in for free. Now they moan because season ticket prices have gone down.

I consider myself quite fortunate and will purchase in advance, however if I could not afford, then I would simply pay on the gate as my financies permitted.

Where else can you watch your home town club play in the football league?

MMmmm with employees attitudes like yourself theres no wonder is there, customer sevice 5* think not - take it you have no problems going to matches [for free or even reduced ]. Has it not occurred to u that [what u class as moaning is constructive critism!!]


...........ah yes the world is all sooo perfect & spiffingly jolly

I do not work for the club. I pay to watch Stanley home and away. I just find it hard to read you moaning every time something is given for free or cheap.

You can pay weekly for a season ticket. Just give them the money on the turnstiles LOL

Cool Redskin

As it stands i regularly go to home matches as finances permitted pay on the gate - even had the 1 or 2 away match thrown in, but quite like the idea of spreading the cost season ticket plus keeps money coming in regular thro out the season, would be especially useful for those who have concessions to fork out as well - could encourage a few more season ticket holders which is what i presume would be good for the Club & stanley as a whole

Mmm i find it hard that a Stanley fan would berate another so easily, like on previous threads, opologies for saying about employment & u dont work for the club actually a good job, maybe keep off if u find it hard to listen to me be constructive then u wont put off other potential fans with your reaction.

Hehehehe nice attempt at humour i think they call it gate not season ticket Think of it one way ..... theres no footy after 2 weeks throughout the summer - even if the cost could be broken down into monthlys during that time from now till season starts. Thing is Poppy as much as there maybe so called moaners like me about the prices & wanting to support the team, there is also so called moaners about people not supporting their home team, not putting money into stanley - going elsewhere, apathy, supporting regularly etc ....... so which is it ??? LOL

Believe it or not WE do support the same team aka STANLEY

If the season ticket is as it stands with it being up front - then so be it, but actually to surprise people im glad & grateful the gate prices isnt changing then - so that is good news

OK I will do that then. You stay here and moan about free and cheap things and I will go elsewhere and not post here again as you suggest. Bang goes another stanley fan. bye

You know what i meant to para-phraze for you if u dont like what i post select ignore>>accymel saves seeing my posts if my critics so offend u or dont reply on the post ignore it or carry on - your choice, nowhere did i say leave the forum its not my place thats the moderators to decide, you seem to have more a problem with me than anything else, but u didnt seem to mind doing worse to me on many more threads. I was offering an olive branch to you in above post ^^ to agree to disagree, but if thats too much then no worries, i shall still support my team as i have done as with other stanley fans.

I couldn't afford one up front last season, but this year my circumstances have changed and I'll be getting one.

The point of season tickets is that the fan benefits by paying less over the season, while the club benefit from money up front. That's how the world works. People who pay cash for an item pay less than those buying on HP.

I've been critical of the club on numerous occasions, but I agree with Poppy in the view that moaning about prices actually coming down is just ridiculous. Seems like the club can't win.

[accymel]

Cool TM

Think as i tried to explain to poppy as to what deems as moans in another point of view deems as constructive idea which was the case, if it stays as it is then also fine, as i said will continue next season as this one & i did thank god that the gates weren;t changing - so thats cool. Tho i think people are too quick to jump on me cos im open voiced about my views or ideas - some have worked for fans favour where club had listened & some not well recepted but thats life, yes the club is a business like owt else & good or bad ideas should be discussed or explored, im not asking for free admittance on saturday im payin in LOL!!

ps soz a little off topic quiz working now TM

Never thought I would hear myself say it but I agree with Tin Monkey 100%

Seems to me a few of you have missed the point of Mel's posts.

Where does Mel actually complain about the prices coming down ? She is actually suggesting alertnative methods of payment for those like herself who would love to commit to a season ticket and can't afford it. That doesn't mean it has to be the same price as those paying cash up front and I'm pretty sure anyone who pays by installments wouldn't expect it.

The point of season tickets is that the fan benefits by paying less over the season, while the club benefit from money up front. That's how the world works.

Isn't one of the points of season tickets also that it gives fans the chance to commit there support ? As far as I know Stanley needs committed fans, or has that changed now ?

I just find it hard to read you moaning every time something is given for free or cheap.

Harping back to a discussion weeks ago which wasn't actually complaining about kids being free but that the rules had changed over the season about how that operates.

If you still want to moan, then go watch cricket or something!

Good idea, Mel get a season ticket down the road where they are better value for money, and less than half price for your soon to be 12 yr old.
