So you were not around when we were in the Premiership In those days we did not have enough money to buy the two of the top strikers in the Division like we can today

You maybe right but lets wait and see. Lowe ran a PLC in the Premiership with little or no money Cortese runs a Private Company in League 1 in a free Stadium so the pressures are different

It used to cost me 3.5% to process Credit Cards in my small business with SFC it would be less

No but there was no booking fee then was there? You were suggesting the £3 would ensure us being Champions

What has that got to do with anything The club has clearly not been 100 % fair to its fans who have supported it through the bad years

And what happens if we dont do we get the £3 back

People like having a day out once in a while but object to be apparently ripped off

And less fans possibly

Perhaps the Charter was just a piece of PR spin

Sixty or look sixty

Who knows - but I expect NC will make a a few bob when the club is eventually sold and that is possibly his goal

I dont think you see the point SFC had a method for paying by installments which without any notice have stopped so it is going to cause problems.

I think you have a very valid point But lets face it Cortese wants to get in as much revenue as possible and probably cares little about how the fans feel

Inflation is currently about 3.7% which I think includes the fact that VAT has gone up by 2.5% so your figure of 5% is reasonable But lets face it Cortese is not here to help the fans he is here to make money like all previous Chairman I would have thought maybe more than the others but we will never know

No I dont think it is Do you pay your Council Tax in installments or up front? SFC are just getting money in early

Well I probably wont go to see Wigan come and draw 0 0

I think you are being slightly over the top in your response if the club had told fans there was not going to be any installment plans then they could have planned accordingly. A very poor decision by the club. Dont think people would be very happy in Southampton Council said all Council Tax had to be paid in one installment instead of the usual ten

I would be very surprised if it was entirely Cortese's decision as there are other people involved at SFC and would have been done on purely financial reasons

Doubt I would go if we were crap like Stockport/Wycombe

That is why I quite like it in League 1 Usually see a win a few goals have a couple of beers with my brother for less than £20

Wonder what season ticket prices will be like if we were in the Premiership Could be £125 per game by the time we get there:(

Yes I think that is an important point if fans were told earlier things may have been different

Lennon is just better

So is the BBC

If Barry was fully fit I would agree with you but I think Carrick should go for insurance as he has more experience than Parker. That said not much too choose
