ST Renewal

The club are backwards thinking in almost every department and this includes the ticket office, no incentives, no marketing campaigns to sell tickets or sell season tickets, it's the "we put them on sale and we will be happy with what we sell" attitude, there's nothing to try and sell more, season tickets could well be below 3 thousand.

The Notts County away game will be another gauge for the mood of fans both regular and floating.I had intended to go to this game all Season I won`t be bothering now sadly .I had expected a town following in excess of 2.5k to travel now I would be amazed if 1k bother . People will wrongly say oh that`s cos weve nothing to play for. No it isn`t that at all it`s because it simply isn`t worth the time effort and money going when those players are not playing to there best which is the minimum requirement we the fans expect. You will always get a degree of blind loyalty from the faithful and I admire the willpower these people have . The ones like me accept we wont win every game but we wont accept players and Managers going through the motions which is what we have had for over a Month . This Club needs a massive change of direction a proper clearout from top to bottom root and branch and the Manager needs either backing or sacking the fans deserve some clarity on where we are? We should based on support be capable of putting a budget together to challenge for the Play Offs yet we seem miles off that . The Manager has blooded some younsters and the fans have backed that and accepted this will lead to some funny results but acknowledge it`s the right way . Saturday a nothing game on paper we play a 39 year old CB and bring on Wooly rather than give these youngsters another 90 mins. Things like this lead to me questioning the Manager`s decision making I like the guy but FFS grow a pair.

I might well be in the minority ( actually I bet I am ) but going through the motions for over a month?

The two home draws against Northampton & Bury while goalless we didn't play badly.... just lacked a cutting edge

Away at Oldham I'd argue that they were no better than us on the day and had we scored first or equalised ( and we should have done with the chances we had ) the outcome could have been different

I'll accept that on Saturday against Stevenage we were poor but we still had chances that could have and should have been put away

Maybe I'm guilty of seeing things through black & white specs but I've seen lots worse from Town over the years and our position this season while disappointed we've fallen away is not dire imho

They could try a Saint Renewal’s Day sponsored event. Who was he anyway? Patron saint of lost causes?

Unless there is a massive surprise in the hat - a new owner - Fenty has to come out and publicly back up his pledge made at the fans forum that Jolley will be given a bigger budget that is going to make us competitive ASAP!!!

Been a season ticket holder for many a year but really need some form of enthusiasm to be injected by the club really am struggling this year to even get mildly enthusiastic on match days
I really think jolly might be the makings of this club but without some form of investment it seems like same old same old

You're not guilty of seeing things through black and white specs - you are a town fan through good and bad.
I'll be getting my ST and will continue to do until I'm too old to get to BP ( although I'm 71 now , so it may not be too long !! )

I'll be buying three again next season because I'm a Mariner. That doesn't stop me from wanting this one dimensional owner & his fellow directors to sell the club to someone who will actually move us in to the 21st century.

think there might be a few season tickets sales less next season as zebra finance no longer doing the finance option anymore so if fans pay monthly might not be able to renew maybe cant afford full price out right

If I didn't work away a lot I would buy a season ticket despite town not having a great season.  Things like bad results etc would not deter me from going to matches.  I don't get the argument of not buying a season ticket if you are able to and can afford to just because of some poor results and league standing.  Maybe I'm one of these town fans that will always want town to do well despite poor runs which I'm sure most of us do and I'd still turn up at BP.

Oh don't get me wrong I do have a moan when town do crap but not to the point that it would deter me from buying a ST.  But if that's your perogative then fine.
