Karjala Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Anyone who renews is completely delusional. Will only contribute to the clubs demise further. Exactly this. As long as 50k buy season tickets based on Ashley not wanting to qualify for Europe or win a cup, then it will continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Thing is, it's nice to have your own seat and that but hasn't Happy Face shown that it isn't even cheaper than buying tickets individually? Doing so gives loads of flexibility without any of the drawbacks. Maybe not now, but in a decades time it may well be if you're on the 13 year price freeze.

Wallace Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I think the club need to start offering half-year season tickets for the first part of the season only seeing as they stop playing after Christmas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 They will need to employ some clever marketers for next season if we stay up. "Let us take your money and take the piss out of you". Then again, this plan is working quite well at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 They don't and won't need to do anything, plenty will renew regardless of what happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 They don't and won't need to do anything, plenty will renew regardless of what happens. ....which is why the club will always be crap - any owner knows that the idi - I mean, fans, will accept any rubbish put in front of them and any humiliation dished out from Wearside.

Danh1 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I wish I hadn't given mine up last year as I would like to give it up now. Same, aside from that it was the best thing I've done. That love that was there when I was a kid has just gone completely, I got a free ticket for the Southampton game on Saturday gone and it was just hell. The crowd was dead and I wasn't even arsed when we scored. Left ten minutes early and went for a pint. Load of absolute shite, I don't get what's worth going for, shit atmosphere, no enjoyment or excitement and no passion on or off the pitch. If Sunderland went down a lot wouldn't renew, most I know renew for the loyalty points so they can go to Sunderland away - which is shite anyways.

Disco Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Wouldn't make a difference who gets it imho I was going to keep mine if we had gotten a half decent head coach in like. Seems almost daft to get rid of it after all these years of Pardew but they've finally warn me down to the point where I don't care enough anymore to keep it regardless of what may (not) happen in the summer. In the 0.1% chance they appoint de Boer (or ilk) and drop £50m net on players I'd just buy one for the extra however much it is. It's not so much the price that's important to me it's what it does and doesn't fund. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a wrench not being there if/when we pick up the odd decent result but they've done most things in their power to make going to the match as about as unpleasurable as it could possibly be these days although there are few better places on Earth when the place is rocking despite all this. In retrospect I should've packed it in this season but I'm a daft fool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always felt your attitude was particularly stoic and more down to a refusal to have your passion taken away from hence my surprise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely not easy, I'm in the opposite situation, I've literally wanted one my entire life, I finally move here in the Ashley era, fucking grim. But I don't want to fund him, so thats the only option Same position as you was too young and poor during the good days and now we are lumped with Ashley. I think about what we should be everyday man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I stopped my payments this time last year and it felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders, I've took my 10 year old son who is just getting into football a couple of times this season and the atmosphere is non existent. the whole club needs a good purging that only a relagation can do.

Relegation changed nothing last time. We need Ashley gone but of course without a buyer that's impossible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
