What's wrong with eBay?

Nothing, I love eBay.

Groupon tends to do football ticket offers from time to time, that and party at the proact tickets!

If have to say that is well done by the club, it had to be.

Don't you think that it's all a bit of a publicity stunt?
Or
ST sales have been sh*t so they extend the deadline.

Phil Tooley deserves some credit - it would appear that his tweet tonight to AC was the catalyst in bringing the Club to it's decision

Phil wouldn't send such a demanding public comment to a club director without them being in on it. Some people are so gullible.

Signals to me that take up so far has been less than anticipated hence the extension nothing more.

Says to me cash flow is a problem yet again so needed some quick income with an early deadline knowing plenty would renew regardless of knowing what league we would be in, then offer an extension to reel in the undecided for another cash boost for the following month.

It's laughable and insulting to the fans intelligence that we are supposed to believe that maverick Tooleys tweet to Carson is the reason the deadline was suddenly extended.

You're probably right, either way it's the right thing to do and of course Mr T no longer comes on here so he can't argue otherwise.

He should send him a tweet about getting some extra staff on the concourses at half time. The amount of people that stand in the queues on the kop at half time and give up is ridiculous. We are losing money all the time on extra sales. Unless you leave your seat ages before half time you have no chance of getting served

Now you sound sensible considering your infirmatives.

Anyone wanting to buy a ST even weeks after is still able to get at the early bird price aren't they?
The club would rather have the money up front (def worth negotiating if thinking of getting one)

Would be very interesting to go in there and haggle to the price you want. Would be a clear sign to see how desperate we are for cash still if successful.

Only mentioned it because I heard it happened last season (which from a club point of view is not an issue I guess)

Interesting to note that in the East stand they opened up the other kiosk that is usually shut.

I guess there is a capacity figure that triggers opening up the other kiosk.

Try that in Asda and Morrisons with a trolley full of food worth a £100 and offer £80 because they losing customers to Aldi and Lidl..sorry if you want a ticket then you should pay the price that it is at the time you want it. Whether a stunt or not due to staying up I think the club have done the right thing.

Of course it's the right thing, it's just the fact it takes people to complain, rather than the club not respecting the fans enough to make it the end of the season in the first place that leaves a sour taste. They then want a pat on the back for trying to shaft fans in the first place. There's clearly an underlying reason for their strategy in all of this as ive previously stated in my opinion, but we will never know for certain.

The whole Tooley to the rescue doesn't wash with me. Tooley says it needs extending, the quickest discussion in history takes place and the next minute the deadline is extended. I don't think so.
