    You say there is no point. Have you ever wondered in that very sad world of yours why everyone, or nearly, on here disagree and think there is actually a point. Oh, no, I forgot, you are right and every other person is always wrong. Sad b.s.ard.

    In the past, having a season pass got you discount at some places. I guess not making it clear what the pass was for suggests that there's going to be no partnership deals with any new sponsors.

    If anyone thinks a company of any kind of standing would issue a membership/season pass card without the name of the compay they're lying to themselves.

    It's utterly bonkers.

    Look, even Happy Tiger knows the name of the club has been left off the pass for one reason and one reason only, and his dribbling nonsense about "you know which team it's for" (no ****) is merely him struggling to think of anything coherent to **** out via the medium of keyboard ****ery.

    He's a cretinous, ****-for-brains troll and best ignored.

    No offense like.

    What if someone loses their season card in the street ?

    It's found by a passer-by. In the absence of a valid nomenclature will the finder post it to :

    a) Leicester Tigers
    b) Castleford Tigers
    c) Chittagong Tigers
    d) Chester Zoo

    serious answers only please

    On the basis that not many have renewed their season ticket...it's an unlikely event.

    Well if you class well over 10,000 season cards sold(by monday am 30/june) then yes you are correct.
    Still time for more season cards to be sold. 25/july but the direct debit option has now ended.

    The 1904 with a Tiger may help some mind ? :wink:

    As we'd sold 14,500 by 11th May last year, I think it's safe to call to 10,000 a disaster(though I think it's actually a couple of thousand more than that).

    I only just renewed on Monday because I decided I couldn't take the risk of missing out on a single Europa league match.

    Not seen a season card for the coming season.....would prefer it IF it has Hull City on the card but if not its not the end of the world and I won't be pissed off .
    What ever AA says, we are still Hull City AFC and I don't think the FA will ever agree to a name change .

    A drop in season ticket sales isn't good, but a disaster?

    Slightly O/T but as far as sales go isn't disaster status not reliant, to a degree, on gate numbers as the season goes on? If gate numbers remain the same as last year even with fewer season ticket holders won't the club make more bread as a result of the new pricing structure?

    Back to the topic, not putting the name on the pass is ****ing stupid but it's equally stupid to think the old bugger would have put Hull City AFC on them.

    The man and his sensibilities need to be beaten, he won't just change his mind (why should he) as others have said put a sticker on the pass with Hull City AFC on it, CTWD produce their own 'replica' City shirts with a crest and wording that swims against Allam's tide.

    They'll always be some who buy club merc but if he see's enough people wearing alternatives, putting cash into his enemies pockets the old sod will eventually bust a hernia or have a heart based episode?

    Will the season card give any discounts for Europa League or Cup games? It'd be a nice touch given the price hike?

    Following our best ever season I'd say our season ticket sales were a disaster, shall we settle for 'a bit of a disaster'.

    It's true that financially, we could recoup the losses with matchday ticket sales, but I think it's unlikely.

    The other things you've mentioned are currently being worked on.

    OLM I know you're not CTWD but are part of it....

    ....Are CTWD expecting/forecasting that gates 'on the day' will be significantly down in comparisson to last year?

    Just tried to enter Garforth Town's Stadium with my new season card.

    It would appear my card is lying to me... "bloody Allam!"

    It's all speculation at the moment and we haven't specifically discussed what we think will happen to the gates this season, but I think we'll probably do alright with the £16 games, as they're generally the most winnable and it's a good price for these games. £50 for the games against the big teams is a hell of a lot, we'll probably still do reasonably well with ticket sales for these games, though many of those buying them will be supporting the opposition. The £35 games are the biggest issue, they're not the most attractive games and it's a lot for a match ticket.

    I'm expecting that our average next season will probably be down 3,000 and that our revenue will also be down as a consequence, but obviously that's just an educated guess.
