oafcprozac Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) Just a little gauge to see if Latics fans truly will put up with any old :censored:. Ronnie Moore steered us to a 10th place finish our third best in this league at that time, yet many didn't renew or held back their hard earned. I'm just curious, I know many are pissed off. So how many will truly renew come the spring? The only way the board will truly get the message is in the summer. Right now the sitting back 'it'll be reet' mentality coming from the club means it'll be all the more shocking come June.Many of us only renewed due to the crazy act of desperation thrown at us in March. Added to the hope of stability under a new era of Shez against every indicator we stepped up to the plate and renewed. Only to see probably the lowest budget in the league, another rookie text book manager and his clipboard clone put in charge and a squad of loanees and shot shy :censored:houses put together.So who's renewing?I've threatened to in the past but given I'm already picking and choosing this year WITH a ST so without a ST there's not a hope in hell of me being there every week.

manshaw Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I wasn't going to renew last year, after 20 years. But like many others, Sheridan riding in on his white horse, sold me. I was very dubious about the season ticket offer, and actually paid by credit card as protection. If things stay the same, I am afraid there is no protection against BOREDOM. So it will be a big fat NO from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flemboy Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I will renew. I am only doing so because this is my club and I will never support anyone else. It is NOT because I get any pleasure out of watching this total :censored:e of a team and equally :censored:e mamager Apologies to Clarke and Ripley who deserve better.

oafcprozac Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 And if you are renewing, I'm not here to mock you. You have my respect for sticking at it and deserve any future success that may happen. I'm just at the point where I can't justify being bored :censored:less every other week. I've seen 2 league goals at BP all season and haven't seen us win in the League since April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcfluff1985 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Couldn't think of anything worse than missing out on the :censored:e we've seen for 20 years every other saturday so count me in for a renewal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpwild Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Didn't renew for obvious reasons this season. If he's still at the helm next season the same will follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetramfixer Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) I'll renew probably! live too close not to really ... can afford it, and work doesn't get in the way too much - that said I won't be booking time off to get to matches when they do clash .. I'd rather spend the time on a cruise ship! .... so I'm IN! Edited December 22, 2016 by thetramdriver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 If there's some sort of offer on as has been indicated by the club then probably but if we go down not a chance. I'm a ST now and don't go to every game and it's become a real chore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I won't be renewing if Robinson is in charge unless he changes his philosophy or he is replaced! I pick and choose games which will probably end up being more than originally intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magister Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Why would a 63 year old who has watched them since he was 4 years old even consider not renewing? A yes from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OL9erlatic Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Yes from me for my sins, whatever league we start in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I only renewed this time because of Shez being back.... that went well! No chance of me renewing next season, I'm not prepared to spend another 23 matches bored :censored:less. I'll pick and choose, but in all honesty they will probably be more likely away games.

Dave_Og Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Didn't renew for obvious reasons this season. If he's still at the helm next season the same will follow. Technically I'm not sure it's possible not to renew twice in succession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oafc88 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I think i said it last year but Batmans' butler said it best... Some men just want to watch the world burn! Renew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcfluff1985 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Those who won't renew are either single or have a partner that let's them do what the hell they want on a Saturday. If I didn't have my season ticket that'd be an extra day every week stuck with her listening to :censored:e from Ikea she wants to fill the new house with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got a woman running your life for you. As for me, not had a season ticket since 2010. Dave Penney saw me off buying any more ST's. I'll go to the odd game again, as long as it's free...

BP1960 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Yes, As mentioned before I watched us in the old 4th division so it will be like future to the back for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics_Fanatic Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Undecided, leaning towards no. Recently turned 22 so price will go up quite a bit, add that to the :censored: on the pitch... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philliggi Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Latics isn't corneys club it's mine. I go to latics every week cos it's what I do. It's what I've always done and it's what I always will do. My dad took me from being 6 years old and I hope to take my children one day. I don't enjoy it at the moment but I live by the hope we will once again see success one day. The day I decide not to renew is the day this club dies. The powers that be will never get between me and my club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nonaenever Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Got my season ticket based on Shez being here. Gave it away to a family member weeks ago - and I have paid on the gate ever since! So, probably classed as financially insane but, in a daft way, I`m actually helping the club financially of course. If Robinson's still here - definitely won't renew - just don't rate him unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
