Not sure if this is widely known, but there are plans (announced recently by our American owners via their representative) to disband the Vice Presidents Club and it's 100 or so members and relocate them somewhere else in the stadium. They (members) have been given a choice as to whether they will accept a 65% price increase on their season ticket and commit to a 3 year "deal" or relinquish their seat so that those seats and the Lounge they currently occupy can be used by "Corporate Customers" and their guests. That may not mean much to most of the fanbase, but when you consider that people like Mel Nurse and Ivor Allchurch's wife for example, and people who have supported the Swans for the best part of 70 years through thick and thin (mostly thin) - are effectively being told they are no longer welcome - do people not agree that this is something that should be challenged. I read a post yesterday about recent developments within the Football Club, and how things aren't being investigated and reported in the local press, and the inference was that the press were being paid off to put a positive spin on things. If there was any doubt as to the intentions of our new owners, then this latest story confirms that. What puzzles me is where do they think the extra Corporate customer base is going to come from, to watch a product which is in decline. |
