Been a Town fan since 1962/83, seen it all, the Good, the Bad & the Peter Dinsdale, will undoubtedly sign up for my 2 season cards, the past 3 seasons have been dreadful. Come on TOWN, particularly Phill & Dean, get it sorted out. I'm a die-hard Town fan, but this season has even tested me - UTT.

Do you still live there? Grow up there? Fond memories of Grantham as a kid, my Mum was born there, and i used to stay at my Grandma and Grandads house on union street, in the 60’s. The big Asda store is built there now near the railway line.

The big Asda store is built there now near the railway line. Proper small world. I grew up on Dudley road near the old police station. Yeah the Asda was one of the biggest when it was built and featured on the advert at the time. They had to demolish the leisure centre which gutted us as kids.

Wow if the BLM factor is your deciding factor them wow. I also can't understand the kneeling thing but hey ho. It seems a pretty odd reason to not get a season ticket. The fact that we are beyond shit would be my reason. WOW indeed ..i want a political free experience ..Town can kneel ..moonwalk..fucking morris dance ...i aint paying for it

I personally think we got very lucky but we have achieved what i believe we wanted this season. Get it over as cheaply as possible without getting relegated.
Bromby said as much with big squad changes this summer.
You might not trust them to get it right but those changes are definitely going to happen.
So my messages to fans is, give it a go, give them a chance to put this plan into place. Please get a season ticket, we need you. The more get behind it, the more likely it is to succeed.
It’s not like previous seasons of going through the motions of the same old shite dressed up with the odd signing. There is a plan, it might work, it might not. But get on board, if it’s shit, it’s shit. At least you can say you gave em a chance and your support.

I think out of the fourty odd years watching us I could count the number of times I've not had a ST on one hand, but I refuse to buy into something with the faith that those running the club will not only get it right this time but end the wilful neglect. The neglect not to replace two decent strikers with a goalscorer. The neglect to have a capable and fit for purpose goalkeeper. People make mistakes..owners managers and players and thats fair enough but some of our pitiful performances are down purely to deliberate under investment and additionally I don't see that Carlos has learned anything at all. Despite a precarious league position a few weeks back we are still gifting goals from his style of play.
So unless something dramatic happens its a watch n wait attitude as I simply don't trust the club to do what us required and what is right.

I’m going to. Could be great, probably won’t be but at least I should be able to watch my team in the stadium. I’ve missed that.

Family conference last night ...imm paying for one of the young uns ..3 including me not renewing various reasons mine is the BLM bollocks ..cant speak for others it was a free vote still will listen work permitting .. I am mulling over whether or not to renew my season ticket, but like you my reason is the BLM bollocks and i know of two work mates who are not renewing for the same reason. I have watched Town from being a kid in the 67/68 season but this season could be different.

The footballers have successfully ended racism on a global scale and your eyes are all rested for kick off, the bit that comes next is the part that might put me off renewing!!

The quality in what has been the worst Championship in history will next year be miles better than this year.
43 points may be enough to survive this time FFS.
If we truly believe we are a Club that should be playing and stable at this level, then we need to start acting like one on and off the pitch.
We have played our last joker, no more rabbits out of hats. We carry on with the Club from top to bottom being run like this and we finish bottom next season.
I think we will see improvements on and off the pitch, but am at the moment edging towards pay on the day.

Be quite funny if a bunch of offended people don’t renew because of the ‘BLM bollocks’ and they don’t continue it next season. Could be the first own goal of the season but by supporters rather than players.

Completely disagree I think the quality in the Championship next season will be much worse than this. Sheff U, West Brom and Fulham coming down, Peterboro, possibly Blackpool coming up, I suspect to comply with FFS most clubs will release pretty much all out of contract players with either journeyman, freebies, kids covering. No way are teams like Reading going to continue paying double their income in wages when I suspect season ticket sales will plummet pretty much accross the board.

At this rate the players will have to come out at 2.30pm.

I'm on the fence.... recruitment and ambition will play a large part in if I buy three.
"Phil, You buy the players and I'll buy the tickets."
Not paying my hard earned to watch a bunch of cloggers, plus don't want to put my kids off with a toxic environment.

All I see is another Siewert situation where after 8 games or so we find out nothing has changed and Hodgkinson has fucked up again! Sadly Championship football won’t be enough for many to renew, we want proof in these next few months things will really be different than just trying to survive at this level again.
