I was at a gathering on Friday - a booze up actually. Amongst the gathering were 6 long-time season ticket holders (including me). Only 2 said they had renewed, with the rest (like me) saying they are going to pick and choose games next season and "see how it goes". All had a very dim view of the current state of the club and unanimously said they had never felt more distanced from the club as fans. The final numbers will be interesting.

Well if your ‘sample size’ was representative we’d be at 1000 season tickets. .....but we we are at 1900, so it isn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 It’s still a fair reduction so based on those figures I don’t see how AL can promise that the budget will be 100% better next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be 100% bigger than last year as in a pound more not doubled !! Haven’t we already done this ? I do also realise you could be alluding to the same and still don’t see how it could be ?

I never claimed it was representative. Looks like we'll be around 1,000 down on season ticket holders compared to last season. A 33% reduction is pretty alarming. If that is also reflected via POTD customers, our average "home" support will be the lowest for many, many years. It's sad but a reflection on my response to Harry above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say that though. It says "That the playing budget is for next year is 100% better than this season" These are notes that have been approved by the club and the trust. Selling season tickets after stating that quote would be false advertisement, as it clearly states that we have a doubled playing budget for next season from a meeting with the club. If not, why haven't the trust sorted this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, why haven't the trust sorted this. You're quite right shuck. Notes produced should be an accurate reflection of what was said (and any obvious ambiguity cleared up prior to publishing). When reading the Trust notes, it was ambiguous - and it would have helped if they had qualified what they meant by "100 % better". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 ‘Confirmation by AL/DS (club) that the playing budget for next year is 100% better that (sic) this season.’ so you can interpret ‘100% better’ as meaning ‘definitely better’ OR you can interpret ‘100% better’ ’ as meaning ‘double’ I think that most would choose the latter.

It's not open to interpretation, they way it's wrote means the budget will be doubled for next season. I have strong suspicions it does mean it'll definitely be more than last season as I can't imagine us affording to double our budget, the way it is wrote is wrong and I'm stunned for an organisation representing the fans it hasn't been sorted .. still!
