cidercity1987 Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 No refund, I support the club after all and access to home games would be fine with me in this extraordinary situation. I wouldn't expect access to away games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't expect access to away games. I supported the club for years, since about 1967 and especially in '82 when I - along with many on here -bought shares. However the club in recent years have decided that I am now a customer to be sold and upsold to, a marketing opportunity, and as Colin Sextone referred to us "a punter". I well remember ST prices rising dramatically upon promotion to the Championship and when asked Steve Lansdown said he had set them at what he though "the market" could take.

Mr Popodopolous Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Think a lot will depend on people's economic circs too. If relatively unaffected or able to ride it our they'll be relaxed. If however their industry has fallen off a cliff then any income at all will be invaluable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 If you`re going for the no refund option then away games have to be included otherwise to make sense financially you would cancel and buy each home game at a time - get (in my case) £366 back and pay £230 (assuming it`s ten quid a game?) to watch the home games.

Laner Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I wonder how people with multiple season ticket holders in the household will vote? As watching games online would effectively only require one ticket holder in the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I’m not bothered a about a refund. I’d happily accept free access to watching the remaining games online or on tv. Not the same as watching a game live at AG of course but these are unusual and difficult times so compromises are necessary from us fans and the club.

marmite Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I read somewhere recently that some clubs could well survive without the gate money from ticket sales. If that's the case then there is plenty of cash swilling around in football to keep all clubs going for the rest of this season. It just needs sharing out a bit fairer to help the less affluent. Won't happen though because the big clubs and the Prem don't give a toss about the rest. Much as I hate this virus situation, somethings will have to change in football. As regards a refund , I'll write this season off if it helps the club, but I've stumped up for next year too. I'll have that back please if I can't watch live football.

GreedyHarry Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Give the lot to CHSW. I haven’t had that money for about 15months, and whilst it would be nice, it will probably make more difference to them than it would to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xerox6060 Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Not bothered about this season, expect it to be cancelled anyway eventually, no refund required. Next season obviously needs more discussion and options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenred Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I’ve got tickets for gigs, cricket matches, Wimbledon, rugby matches and festivals that won’t be happening this year and I’m sure there are many in the same boat. From all of them I would expect either a refund or a ticket to whenever the event is rescheduled at no extra cost, and I would expect the same from City regards my ST. So imho they either reduce the price of my next season ticket accordingly or offer full refund, and I don’t doubt that they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joes season ticket was £150....so pro-rata am due about £30 back. But would happily, like you, just be able to see the games somehow. As for my parking season ticket in Wickes, I want a refund on that. It’s over £200, so will want to use the money to pay for next season’s. Many others may disagree but I think there should be blue badge parking at the ground for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS3rich Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 I’m worried about next season. Paying for a season ticket and I highly doubt we’ll be able to attend any games until 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every club in the league and the life time supporters off all clubs must be in the same boat. I’m sure if refunds are due and clubs can afford it they will come through with some kind of compensation when all these troubles are over.

Sir Geoff Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 As a customer I expect to be offered a full refund which should amount to over £100. I can choose to pay to watch Robins TV for £10 per match. That way I keep £50 and the club gets £50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gifford Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 An optional refund. Online games free for those who don’t take up the refund. Very reasonably priced online for those who take refund/pay on day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dredd Posted May 3, 2020 Report Share Posted May 3, 2020 Given the gas leak the other day about the EFL not expecting games to be played in front of fans until 2021 I’m interested to see what they do about next years games. They’ve already moved the DD on a month for monthly payers so wouldn’t be surprised to see that happen again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't taken any pay since February. A refund please, Steve Lansdown. I don't think I should be subsidising a billionaire and his very wealthy employees at BCFC by paying for a service that was not delivered. I'm sure if they'd have paid my company in advance to provide something that I wasn't able to deliver, they'd be asking for their money back.
