Renewing your season ticket? (2 Viewers)

Flying Fokker · Mar 30, 2013

Having spoken to some City fans recently, all of whom are season ticket holders they are seriously considering staying away from the Ricoh until SISU go. They suggest that the only way SISU will go is if the revenue stops coming in. In my view this is a risky strategy to get SISU out. The season ticket holders are similar to many of the posters on here in so much as they just want to see city putting a team out, in the city and with owners who can take the club forward.

Would you be prepared to stay away from the Ricoh (By not buying season tickets or even match day tickets) if you knew that we would have new owners instead of SISU? No guarantees of course, but they say it is the only way SISU will go. The general consensus is that there may only be about 4000 season ticket holders and 7000 total for every home game next season......If it happens!

Or will you continue to go up the city, buying your season tickets with the belief that all will come good in the end?

I have stated that I will be buying my season ticket this coming season. Maybe I am wrong to be doing this?

Steve.B50 · Mar 30, 2013

Good point, I have no idea at this stage what I will do regarding next season, however if honest I think I would still go to games. The other issue is that a lot of fans would still follow the City away and a ST usually always get you an away ticket.

Grendel · Mar 30, 2013

Needless to say you support your club not the owners so ill be there.

Mucca Mad Boys · Mar 30, 2013

I'll get my ST and will do even more away games.

Tom's Dad · Mar 30, 2013

Me and Tom will both be renewing. Wonder when the prices will come out? Other clubs early bird deadlines are being passed this weekend!

mrtickle · Mar 30, 2013

But if the fans go, will it make us less attractive to potential buyers?

ohitsaidwalker king power · Mar 30, 2013

We'll be there...rain, shine .. SISU, ACL, PHIV or whoever.. its what we do and who we are.

Seconded,I will be 100% there as I love my football club.

slyblue57 · Mar 30, 2013

I ll be there as will all the season ticket holders around me. I support ccfc and if Sisu is still there, I ll be there, if they re not there I ll be there.

jas365 · Mar 30, 2013

I'll be honest, the main reason I renewed my home ST this season was so I could still have my away ST.
If I had to choose to do one or the other, i'd choose the away games over the home games every time.

WestEndAgro · Mar 30, 2013

Count me in, it's what I do on Saturdays.

sw88 · Mar 30, 2013

Ill be there!

Steve.B50 · Mar 30, 2013

I am with you Jaz

I am happy to say that we are in agreement on this one.

torchomatic · Mar 30, 2013

Renew X 3. My son is seven in April so we'll have to pay for him for the first time. He loves it.

skybluesteve76 · Mar 30, 2013

Boring!! We had this debate years ago

Simply the best
Better than all the rest

rupert_bear · Mar 30, 2013

Giving a tin-pot crowd like sisu 5000 x £250 up front are you all mad. And where does the money go ccfc holdings or ccfc ltd. I know one thing for certain the team manager won't see a penny of it.

SkyBlueBlood · Mar 30, 2013

To be honest when we were on the great run under Robins talk of SISU was rare even on here, so I don't think it would change whether I went or not, but we all know that this club would be far better off without SISU who inherited a club in decline but just managed to make it far worse with their incompetence and arrogance.

Depends how you see it.
With a decent manager the squad they have given us is more than strong enough.
This squad should have walked this league.
Yesterday is an example.

I would not be surprised if they were waiting to get the season ticket money before they put us into admin had it not been for ACL's preemptive action. At least now any decent new owner would feel the benefit of any additional ticket income.

A lot of this squad won't be here come the close season

Yea, thanks ACL

Flying Fokker · Mar 30, 2013

Ok..Is there a rumour that Season Tickets funds have already been spent? If so, the creditor will have a say on where the money goes.

This thread may be boring to some, however things have moved on a bit since then haven't they Steve? Or can you tell me where your bubble is parked?

Dude, you're are a bit off piste. Or perhaps Pissed off!

ampthill_sba · Mar 30, 2013

If it's possible to renew for next year I will...but there's a chance that they won't be on offer because of the threat of liquidation or absence of a ground.

Track record: During this season the half season ticket was withdrawn when liquidation was being threatened.

mark82 · Mar 30, 2013

I for one will still go to as many games as I can possibly make.

diggerdaley · Mar 31, 2013

Do we know if we are playing at The Ricoh yet ? the last agreement was for 3 matches I thought.

rupert_bear · Mar 31, 2013

Nothing wrong with re-newing or buying season tickets, but leave your dosh in your bank until the picture gets a lot clearer, probably have to wait until that date in May when the administrator reports back to court anyway.

It is also a possibility that all the home games will be away.
Wonder if fans would renew if this were to be the case.

That won't be happening

Not so sure RB

The reason for CCFC Ltd admin was to get rid of the rent agreement and rent debt.
I cannot see SISU entering in to another rent agreement no matter how low.
Pretty sure they will want ground ownership in full or at the very least in part and with a share of income streams.
ACL will not agree to this.
So as it stands IMO we are more likely than not to ground share.
Anyone agree?

Tank Top · Mar 31, 2013

I would urge caution Lovely Boys
Don't forget we are in administration, with our future unsure, and talk of Season Tickets is a bit premature just yet.
However, if events turn out favorably with fresh investment in the Club Whomever they may be, then of cause, invest in your tickets,if an announcement about our future is positive.
Good luck..Tankie

I read this and although there are not actually many individual responses you can see why vermin latch on to football clubs in an effort to fleece a customer base not seen in any other area of business. Only football fans will line up to part with their money however they are used and abused. There are a lot of questions to be asked for me before I give that devious hedge fund any more of our family money. All you'll hear though is bullshit till they've had your money. They might even file the accounts sometime after any major playing targets have been missed, then there is the question of how many points do we start with 0 or -15. Its what I've done and largely enjoyed now for 35 years but the last 3 years have been a farce............................................. Investors please now show your hand !
