I enquired aout that a few years ago. I won't bore you with the curt response I got, but I don't envisage it happening any time soon. | |

That defeats the object of them YD.
If anyone can buy one then they become a ten ticket block book. This means all fans can buy one and if by, Christmas we're having a shit season then they won't renew or buy a half season ticket.
The Country S/T was introduced to give exiles the opportunity to enjoy S/T benefits whilst encouraging them to maybe visit ten times per year rather than say, 6 times.
But I would reduce the mileage to 40 and use road miles and not as the crow flies which bizarrely the office did one season, depriving one bloke in Sheffield the chance to buy one! It's not just this season we've been maddeningly poor! |  |

It's a ten game ticket that works out with a game free. I had one this season after years of having a season ticket. Ha ING moved from the area it seemed like a good deal. I won't be getting another as the early bird took a bit of the sting off the other costs.
With fuel and food (I could bring sandwiches) it has worked out at nearly £50 a game. |  |

That'll be me. And as I've mentioned on the other thread, now that it's such poor value, I won't be renewing. And for the record, you don't get any of the (£100 saving) vouchers that full s/t holders get. |  | | |

I thought it was you, but didn't 'name' you as I wasn't sure. But I do recall the tale as one of "I walked into the club wanting to give them 100 quid and they turned me down. I left with the 100 quid I wanted to give to the club still in my pocket!"
Because technically you didn't live quite far enough away.
What's wrong with us?
Although 1984, if you were any sort of a fan you'd have moved house to timbuktoo just to qualify!! [Post edited 24 Apr 2016 22:23]

The club has for the past few seasons allowed me to renew, but yes that particular season I turned up with 140 quid in my pocket for my country ticket (which I'd held for 4 seasons) and Gina was Googleing my postcode. Computer says no was the bizarre answer. | | | |

She probably gleaned some sort of personal satisfaction from doing that also. Look at the size of our crowds, why do we treat supporters like that? Commonsense obviously isn't on the agenda.
I would have been tempted to jump in my car and never return again, obviously not before imparting some well intentioned advice regarding a suitable location to store the Computer. Certain situations demand a bit of plain speaking and that was worthy of one. You missed a trick there 1984 [Post edited 25 Apr 2016 3:29]

Oh I told them what I thought, but they're not bothered. The following season they sent me my renewal letter, so I filled it out sent it back and got my country ticket, and every season since there's been no problem, probably due to not having any verbal communication with the office. | | | |
