Sky have picked it up. Amazon Prime won't be pleased!

 

Somebody (Lincoln) pleeeeeeeeeeeease get the West Ham thread up!

 

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.

/rant.

 

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.

 

Utterly appalling. They’re not fans, they’re scum

 

Genuinely hate people/Saints fans/football fans sometimes.

 

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.

 

JWP got the official POTS, but nothing on the other usual awards.

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.

 

Caught up with some admin earlier:
1. Put down deposit on renewal
2. Booked psychiatric appointment

 

I was there with grandson, still talk about it!

 

Shandy_top_89 is disgusted to announce that he has been offered a season ticket for the 2021/22 season, with general disappointment frozen for the sixth successive season, as the club looks forward to fleecing fans back at St Mary’s for the new campaign.

Of course, I will be there because apparently I am a sadist.

 

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

 

Why?
