Apologies should say well not we'll. Bloody predictive text!

No. Unbroken since 1979, and sporadically had one before then from 1968. I'm finished with watching "live" now. Hoping like hell that Lincoln get promoted and I'll see Town at Sincil Bank once a year.

Yes, been going since about 1970 and had a ST for as long as I can remember. Seen far worse than now.

I'll be renewing, but unless things take a remarkable upturn, I can imagine finding better things to do for many of the less 'interesting' games.

Hoping like hell that Lincoln get promoted and I'll see Town at Sincil Bank once a year. If Lincoln get promoted they'll be swapping places with Town. Sad times. In spite of everything, I honestly don't think that we will go down. We'll scramble a couple of draws somewhere and survive (but it certainly won't be by goal difference!) I have never felt so disconnected and unenthusiastic. I hate what football has become, especially the abhorrent Premier League and everything that goes with membership of that. The excitement, the fervour, the rush that I used to get watching fast attacking football died when Lee Clark left. I tried to enjoy WagnerBall because it was "the future of football" and it got us results but it always left us clinging on to odd goal leads in the closing minutes. Since then - with just a handful of exceptions - it's been like watching a game of chess played out on the pitch, with the ball going backwards and sideways far more often than forwards. It's not just Town - it's football in general. It's dull; it's predictable; for the most part it's pedestrian. And we're struggling to play it with a team made-up of ageing and unfit cast-offs looking for one last hoorah, youngsters being played out of position and players who just look as though they've never played the game before. There's too much of it on TV, especially now, with ridiculously staggered kick-off times; VAR is just wrong - let the refs get on with as they have done in all sports for hundreds of years; the media obsession with the Premier League and the Women's Game to the almost total exclusion of the rest of the football pyramid where the REAL footballers ply their trade the REAL supporters can be found. No, sadly football just doesn't do it for me any more.

Nope - not giving a penny to the club unless drastic changes are made and we see where the money is going.
Fans have been taken for a ride for too long now and I believe the season ticket figures will reflect that.
You’ll see me at away games when I can fit them in but I’ll be missing the home games this season.

No, for reasons mentioned previously on other threads.
Some great points made by MT, about football being more like a game of chess, with all the endless fannying around at the back etc, VAR and so on.
I’ve just been reading an article by Henry Blofeld concerning the introduction of “The Hundred”. No more wickets, to be replaced as he says by the ugly word “outs”, while batsmen are to be called “batters”. The fielding position of third man will be just “third”. As HB says, these alterations are both insulting and pointless. He refers to the woke agenda and wonders where will it end? Will “silly mid off”, “fine leg” now be offensive and “straight bat” homophobic?
Change is not good. Stop the world I want to get off.

I'm in the not sure group
I will most likely renew because I like going to games with my Dad - he's in his 70s and going to the game is something I'll miss when he's too old to go to live games
So the decision to renew is nothing really to do with what I expect to see on the pitch but rather it's a chance for a few hours a week with my Dad doing something we've done together since the early 90s
I've already decided I won't be renewing the junior ticket I use for my one of my kids. I can't imagine the experience next year will be especially pleasant because I can see it either being a relegation campaign (and I mean we won't get 30 points) or a underwhelming League One campaign. In both scenarios I think the atmosphere in the ground will be poor and I'd rather my kids remember fun atmospheres rather than getting put off for life

Although the football is gash I really want to be back there, at the end of the day town is our team. But I just can't give any more of my money to the useless ones in charge.

I'm renewing providing we stay up, but it's last chance time. No improvement next season and I feel I'm done until probably different ownership. League 1 football, and they can fuck off.

I'll renew if we stay up. There's more than enough time to do so. I would urge people to wait if possible, to see the ambition of the club.
If we don't stay up I would question the intent of the club going forward, as relegation (after 2 years in the Premier League) would be almost unforgivable.

Staying up is just the next step in the plan of doing 'just enough' that the club looks to be engaged in. The idea that this will be followed by a new energy and investment programme does not look likely at the moment? Drifting and paying off Dean whilst merely turning over looks the ethos for now. Hard to run a competitive football club without some risk and just continuing being a struggling championship club is like this season ,just fraught with the dangers of dropping into league 1 and we can all see how tough it is then to get back up. Maybe it's taken too long to offload the useless big wages? Maybe this summer is the turning point back to a club where the starting 11 actually want to be here.? That would be something to but a season card for and support?

Despite the shit show of the last couple of seasons, we've seen far worse in years gone by, so yes I'll be renewing on the 29th June.

I’ll be renewing and it sounds like I’ll be able to get laid out across the empty seats when I’m on 12 hour nights Fri and Sat, topping up the usual 4 or 5 hours sleep with an extra 90 mins. Result!

It's hardly out of your seat stuff.

I’m going to go as and when. As and when I fancy a day out with the lads. I’ve never been a big fan of Season Cards and went for many years just deciding to go at the last minute and paying the entrance fee.
It is not beyond the realms of reality for there to be another fragmented season, especially during the flu season and so I think it is too much of a risk to splash out now. The current situation at the Club is pissing me off as well.

Now, the dicking around at the back really grinds my gears.
