Nice idea by the club to help get extra income in these difficult times. I've gifted a basic membership to someone who can't get to many games. £15 I thought was good value and hope it will help.

Also on a seperate note bagged my self a bargain polo t shirt yesterday from the club which was on a deal of the day. Good to see the club coming up with good ideas to bring some money in.

Yeah, I saw that, I'm going to purchase it. The club are going to struggle over the next few months as they've got no income coming in.

Yep Thinking of doing it myself

Has anything been said either way whether season ticket holders will be refunded or not if the season isn’t completed in full?

I doubt they’re going to make those decisions until it’s decided what’s happening with the season.

I don’t see how the sport can just write off 90% of a season. It’s a different scenario for football as they’re at the tail end of their season.
I don’t see how RL can survive without the income from most of the seasons games and having to return most of the season ticket and season hospitality income.

Personally I’d cancel the League 1 and/or Championship seasons and use RL funds to keep those clubs alive until the start of next season.

Use those players then to bulk up SL clubs squads and allow us to play 2 games a week and catch up without knackering our players or playing young lads before they’re ready.

Alternatively you could keep the Championship and League One season going, but cancel the Super League Reserves and Academy competitions, allowing clubs to play additional mid week games while rotating their squads.

Would you ask the club for a refund if it was?

Yes, I don’t have money to burn to just give it away to the club for nothing. If games don’t go ahead it’s only fair people with tickets for them are refunded.

Some might not need or want the refund, but those who do shouldn’t be vilified for asking for it. Would people who buy tickets game by game be expected to pay still for games that don’t go ahead?
