  1. I'm not so sure Stu, after all I just think many viewed it as a glorified training exercise (despite the poor pitching and marketing). I also think it might be a shot across the bows in not taking supporters for granted. Others have mentioned it above, but maybe a few don't like it and have indeed lumped it! If season ticket sales aren't overly impressive will "we" have let the Club down or should we instead look at how the Club went about pushing them???
  2. Will have to have a gander as it sounds quite nice. The JPT final support must have been rather moving seeing such numbers and passion a year after rocking up.
  3. It is somewhat ironic that in an effort to reduce the "fraudulent" use of season tickets, the revised system has probably put hundreds of duplicates in to the system.
  4. Someone has suggested that those who have paid in installments will first be getting a book with games 1-8 in and then a second covering 9-23 when they have paid the final installments. If so, it looks as though a number of us "paid in full" season ticket holders have been given the wrong book. Just wonder how widespread it is and whether people even realise??? I certainly wouldn't have looked unless I had seen this thread and have let others know. Two had put there's straight in the draw and only found the first 8 games were missing when I told them!!!!
  5. Just got out of bed and in the post is another full season ticket!!!! I am now the proud owner of three season tickets (even if one is only games 9-23)!!!!
  6. Just got in and a new season ticket was on the door mat!!!! So I now have two season ticket booklets!!!! Good job I'm an upstanding citizen!!!!!
  7. Sir Woody is a stand up guy so slightly disappointed that some are having a pop on here when all he's doing is sharing some info.
  8. Spoke to someone down at SMS yesterday and I think it would be fair to say the bloke sounded somewhat harassed!!!! so not sure how widespread this issue is. Told me he would send a new Season Ticket in the post that afternoon, so will see if a new one has arrived when I get home (so presume I will end up with 1 full one and 1 with games 9-23 on - good job I'm an honest person and will rip the original one up!!!!!!).
  9. As with Turkish, I think you're close to my thinking (although I would say that there would always be a chance of finishing fourth and scraping in to the champions League on an exceptional basis).
  10. Spot on. King canute had the same problem with some of his courtiers, until of course he proved them wrong!!!
  11. I await their response!!!!!!! Just wonder how many have gone out incorrectly and how they are going to redress the situation. If they just re-send a new one out, then Cortese could well have more than 32 rogue tickets in circulation come October!!!!!!!!! So I presume the onus will be on us to travel up/down to SMS to sort out their clusterfccuk.
  12. Just opened mine up and I also only have games 9-23!!!!! Someone's cckocked up!!!!!
  13. He's Alex Chamberlain, He does what he wants.
  14. Right here (before you edited it - good job I had another window open!!!) Slippery editing like that would get you a job at NI!!!
  15. And then followed it up by claiming Red Ed is calling for Cameron to resign, when he actually isn't (radio callers leaps to Leader of the opposition-nice).
  16. OK, your point is solely based on a few loons ringing in a radio station and you then somehow extrapolate that to it being Milliband demanding he resign (which he never has).
  17. LOL, your outrage is due to a few loons ringing in a radio station and you then somehow extrapolate that to it being Milliband demanding he resign (which he never has).
  18. Oh, radio station callers, OK, thanks. (but not red ed as you've stated above, he's merely suggested an apology might be forthcoming!)
  19. Who is calling for Cameron to go?
  20. I'm sure it was as a result of his somewhat hard living, but if you looked at this from a distance - phone hacking, blagging, pinging, snooping, sackings, arrests, resignations, national papers shutting down, mega business deals being pulled, Prime Ministers and officials compromised, fraud, corruption, inquiries, witnesses dying and people digging in bins trying to retrieve accidentally thrown out lap tops - then you would think it was a rather OTT Grisham novel.
  21. Weak leadership, poor judgement, being reactive not proactive, playing catch up, making wrong calls etc etc etc, all not particularly good traits for a PM. He's just been out of touch with others in this scandal, with Norman Fowler (former journalist and editor) calling fo an inquiry a month before Cameron finally caught up. Incompetence, or something more sinister???
  22. Cameron, Hunt, May & Boris have all been flapping whilst events have overtaken them in recent weeks. The Conservative leadership have displayed an astounding lack of empathy with events and decisions, quotes and actions are coming back to bite them firmly on the bottom. A few Conservatives have shown the leadership the way, but those at the top have been found wanting over this sorry saga. Clegg & Cable have kept their heads below the parapet, when in reality they could well be getting stuck in as their powder is somewhat dry and untainted from Murdoch's influence (then again I saw a Tweet saying the Liberals claiming to be immune from being sucked in by Murdoch is akin to a really ugly person stating they are proud to be celibate!!). Prescott, Watson and a few others have led from the front and even though I don't particularly rate Milliband, he has been leading Cameron by the nose and has been setting the pace throughout, calling everything a few days ahead of Cameron. He certainly has judged this right. I just wonder whether Cameron's indecision and lack of leadership is die to him being really concerned that something connecting him to all this will be uncovered soon as he certainly looks out of sorts (then again it is at times of a crisis that you get to see the true mettle of individuals).
  23. Had to giggle when Boris refused to apologise for referring to the Hackgate scandal as "This is a load of codswallop" last year. His judgement seems to be as flawed as Cameron's on this one, with both of them found wanting as events overtook them.
  24. Fully aware of that, but he makes no mention of it in his resignation speech. His speech sounds like Couldon Mk II, "I have done nothing wrong, honest, I'm just going as I'm a distraction!!!".
  25. So why has he resigned??? as nothing in his speech made it clear to me!!!! I just have this funny feeling that we will never get to the bottom of this whole scandal and things will be covered up by various parties.
