Season Ticket

[mickmike wilson]

Are the fans going to contribute to a free season ticket fund again for kids or U17's?
I have been left a sum of £100 by a recently deceased fan and I would like it to go on either 1 season ticket for an older lad or 6 £18 ones.

Marvelous gesture Elaine.

few lads in furness yday saying price too much. only floating fans wouldn't buy season ticket but go as part of day on [SwearFilter] sometime. want a 10 man ticket. pay for 9 get your 10th man free. or group of 10 gets 10 free pint tokens. still think drinking on terraces be trialled for friendlies at least. few boys in the farmers last sun saying want that implemented and would sway them to go. come on cassons where is innovation and entrepreneurial spirit.

It's an FA requirement for no drinking at this level of football and above

great idea being able to sit on the terraces in the sun (if we get any ?) and have a few beers for the pre season friendlies while watching the game ! nothing wrong with that at all ! might get a few who never come enjoy it and come back ?

Maybe could have shown a bit of imagination

You can't drink on the terraces

yes you can bingo did it last season

There was drinking on the terraces at the Conf South play off semi at Ebbsfleet last Sunday, which I was very surprised to see!

again sensible stewarding needed. if playing wrexham or york or other sides likely to come through giving it the large one and causing nuisance then no ale in ground. if boreham wood or colwyn bay roll in to town youve got little chance of disorder and club should try to up takings from punters by selling drink out of the tent by the crossbar. was in preston street on saturday and asked a few why they dont go holker st. sat afternoon is drinking time away from wife and kids. graft at work all week want to escape the daily grind with a few cold ones on the afternoon. drinking on terrace would entice these people out of the pubs and clubs and into the soccer ground. make cash on the extra gate and then the refreshments they buy while watching the game. win win. really think cassons should give it some thought.

Wouldn't work. So when the club says "no drinking at this game, as it's a big one", everyone's gonna go along with that and not kick up a fuss? And then even more so when fewer opposition fans turn up than expected, and people have been deprived of their drink?
Anyway, it's not the club's decision. And the FA are even less likely to grant a licence (if that's even a possibility) with the reputation our fans have. You were one of the "people should be able to chuck smoke bombs and get on the pitch if they like" crowd, right?

Why the [SwearFilter] can't people take two periods of 45 mins out of their booze-fuelled afternoons to watch a game? If they'd rather be down the pub, then leave them there.

This is about the 10th time you have made the same point they don't go because they can't drink whilst watching the game

It's not permitted at clubs of a certain level I'm lead to believe we've already been through this

Yeah, but stilltheman asked some lads down a working men's club and they said they'd rather drink on the terrace. And that's all that matters.
