trousers Posted 24 April, 2009 Share Posted 24 April, 2009 If it helped saved the club, who would buy a season ticket if they had to sign away their consumer rights to a refund if the club went under? Bear in mind that the actual sale of season tickets would render the consumer risk low so a 'win win' surely? Who would waive their consumer rights to save the club?

Pancake Posted 24 April, 2009 Share Posted 24 April, 2009 I would be prepared to buy a Mug from the megastore for £xxx that came with a coupon that I could then use for a "Season Ticket for a quid" in a few weeks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the sort of lateral thinking the club needs. (But would you be prepared to lose your £xxx if the mug smashed on the floor?) Surely someone 'in charge' at the moment can exercise the grey matter to get around this self-defeating conundrum with regards season tickets?

SaintRobbie Posted 24 April, 2009 Share Posted 24 April, 2009 I think once we get the new owners we'll sell more STs for next season than we did under Lowe this season. In fact I would bet on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissyboy31 Posted 24 April, 2009 Share Posted 24 April, 2009 What I didn't understand about what came out of last night's meeting. How can the new owners not honour season ticket sales? Surely SFC is trading normally and they are in effect buying that trading company. I understand that the new ownwers would want to set the level of ticket prices and also ST prices but if they were to be more expensive, then today's price would be like an early-bird discount. If however they were set at a lower rate, anyone buying now could receive a voucher for cup tickets or merchandising etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know how deeply this has been looked into by the Football Club directors and/or the Administrator of SLH? One would hope that they haven't just brushed off the idea without fine tooth combing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another great idea on here! - i'm in a quote mode today so heres another. ... a road without obstacles leads not very far.... i just wish someone at the club could be directing the fundraising side a little better -we defo need the totaliser!
