I still think, 666, that there will be supporters that don't buy season tickets for a variety of reasons. I'm sure we could put a list together of the reasons why people don't buy or haven't bought season tickets. I don't think that's very constructive at this stage. My focus now is to be positive by continuing to spread the word through my friends as much as possible to praise the efforts of the club in the signings they've made and the strength of the squad we will have in the new season.
I'm not sure this RLFANS forum accounts for anywhere near the full fan base or is even representative of it. That said fans are at liberty not to buy season tickets if it's not right for them. But for the record I bought my season ticket within a week or two of them going on sale. Only the second time I have bought a season ticket in the 17 years following them.
Good post.
Not everyone can make it to every single game so how the price band eventually ends up may not make it good value to buy one. It doesn't make anyone less of a fan for not doing so.
Your point regarding spreading the word with season tickets brings up an interesting point. A colleague of mine mentioned that he'd only heard about the season ticket deal through me. I do wish the club would get out to the public and help itself. When Br*dford tried their similar season ticket deal last year they managed to get a stand at Bingley Music Live with 14000 people a day walking past it.
