    Just received a letter to say the seats in my block are being upgraded. They state the new price but trying to compare to the old one. Have they released pricing on new season tickets yet?

    They're upgrading the central Kingsland block to be essentially a new corporate area with padded seating and priority access to the gasworks bar.

    That is all it will take to tip me over the edge and to say "**** you lot you greedy bastards. I have had enough of football." and find something else to do.

    I totally agree. Have sent an email expressing my thoughts, trying to be articulate and not emotional. They will suffer a double hit to their income by a) losing fans who are mortified by a 33% increases for a cushion and b) those fans who, like me, had accepted a credit now asking for that to be refunded too.

    They’ve judged the mood and timing so badly here. We are in uncertain economic times, the football is dire and people have realised that there’s more to a weekend now than football. I’m ready to pack it in after having a season ticket at the dell since I was 6...25 long years of loyalty and enjoyment ended by a total lack of empathy from a club that has lost its soul.

    I know greediness is a staple of the PL, but I have to say I think Saints are one of the worst for this kind of behaviour, especially as the quality of the ‘product’ at Saints is so poor.

    Every offer comes with an asterisk, like those bloody vouchers for early renewal last season:

    - £20 off club merchandise *discontinued lines only.

    - 10% off food and drink *only valid up until 30 mins before kick off.

    Everything has a caveat or small print, it’s just poor form and the quality of customer service at Saints relating to almost every aspect of the club is about at the same level as the on field performance, ****.

    The club was also unable to maintain its guarantees over ticket reimbursement this season, with constant delays.

    Redmond deleted his twitter account after receiving all sorts of abuse from so called Saints fans. No evidence of racial abuse that I've seen but I wouldn't be surprised. Disgusting.

    Have I missed the Saints awards evening or has it been cancelled because of Covid?...I wanted to see if our POTS and GOTS matched the official vote.

    Total cowards all of them who do this stuff. They probably would struggle to complete a spoken sentence without certain words or understand what they have actually said.

    I think you might mean you are a masochist. You could of course be both.

    This is a people problem of course not specific to footy or Saints
    Thing that upsets me is footballers kind of have to be on Social Media and it opens them up to this ****
    Easy for me to avoid the whole shambles
    This is horrible for Nathan
