In a Email from SRD It explains who'll get into the Stadium once supporters are allowed back Seems fair to Me.
1. Season Ticket holders & Squad Builder members
2. Season Ticket holders only
3. Squad Builder members only
4. Open Ballot

Thanks BR, yes just found the list. Yes 12 of the 15 original, of which 9 possibly we can see live. Assume reduced Season Ticket prices then soon.

That’s what the benefits are about. No suggestion of refunds,club needs the money. Man U rang me the other day. They put a credit on your account for each missed game and you can then offset your next payment,or take cash,or donate to the club. In fairness,they have more income streams.

"we will be offering all season ticket holders a free Dacia Magic Weekend ticket and for your name to be placed on a special edition shirt to be released ahead of the 2022 season". Now I know that's not much to some but I know the club are doing everything they can. Personally I can live without the cash for the 3 (potential) home games I'll be missing. I just want to know that my club will still be there for me when we finally get back into the ground. Maybe the club can offer a pro-rata season ticket for anyone who really struggles to pay for their ST so they literally are only paying for what they're getting? Appreciate that a lot of people have kids to feed and a mortgage to pay so a ST is a bit of a luxury item but for sad single barstewards like me with a little bit more disposable income it's one of life's little pleasures!😁

There were also games reduced from the original fixture list as well, I think. As you say BR, MU are at open and accommodating to the needs of all supporters. Of course their position allows this. This doesn't, however, give season ticket holders the choice but in fact only 9? at most potential home games. I'm sure most would let it happen but a costly raffle for some; it's about choice.

Totally agree. I regard my tickets as a contribution to the clubs continued existence,and certainly don’t want any money back. I also think that only a tiny minority would want any refund. For that reason,I think the club has missed a trick. It could’ve been more transparent,at least by referring to the issue,without fear of it costing them much,if at all.

BR the tickets were sold as cheaper this year and the no of games fully lost hasn't been identified . Yes transparency and openness needed. Be interesting to see what other clubs do.

I think the club is worried that a lot of people would ask for refunds, potentially throwing us back into the sh1te a little bit. Bit of a rock and a hard place situation.
Since Paul King and Bleasey have been in tandem I can honestly say I don't recall any time I've thought about questioning their decisions. We need to be greatful that we're in such good hands. We just need someone now with a reasonable amount of financial clout to give us some backing. It's not PL footy so we're not talking millions... a few hundred grand a year would make a huge difference.

They’ve been tremendous. I think it’s possible to think they’re doing a great job but also to be constructively critical. Remember this isn’t slagging them off,just a bit of disappointment on how I feel they’ve missed a trick

Have you tried registering your number with your phone company for a Call barring service ??

Not sure anyone in Leigh will need to Social Distance as they're never more than a few yards from an extended family member.😏
