    If this means you’re going to stop writing the same post over and over and over again then good riddance.

    How tinpot to continually glorify two years of getting beat most weeks and not even competing in about half of the games 20 years ago.

    It's no surprise this club can never move forward with this mindset of harking back to (very minor) glory, reverting back to former chairmen and managers and a fanbase continually obsessed with trying to bring back former players whenever the transfer window opens.

    I fear that with football shutting down people will find other things to do, the virus will dominate everything, and they'll just forget about renewing or just not bother until the situation about this and next season becomes clearer. That will apply to all clubs and might have very far-reaching consequences.

    During this crisis aren't we in this together as City fans? I want to help the club by getting next seasons ticket now and hope others follow suit as there will be no income to pay the wages in March or April. It's not just up to Rupp, it's up to us all as City fans, just as it wasn't just left to Heginbotham and Tordoff who have much more money than I had in the financial crisis of 1983. We all chipped in as supporters of the club. Your money is not as risk as the club will not go under mainly thanks to Rupp who will cover the monthly shortfall. Is it too much though Fordy, and I'm sure you are a genuine fan, to put your poison away for a while and encourage people to help the club rather than support those people on here who just want to moan and will leave the fate of the club to others to sort out. These are desperate times and we need everyone pulling together.

    You are right Grumpy, desparate times indeed. However, a lot of people are genuinely worried about their jobs and income being reduced in the coming months, so people surely have to prioritise. Buying a season ticket is low down on a lot of peoples priorities right now, especially when we dont even know when next season will commence and whether a reduced fixture season

    Just like to know if my club has a long term future plan rather than flailing away pointlessly in the lower leagues. It might not be a thought of everyone and I get that, Im just not one of those fans that's gonna turn up and watch league 2 football years down the line just because the tickets are cheap and I'm happy to have a club to support.

    I think they should suspend sales for the time being and relaunch when things are clearer

    So I can just be more depressed that we've dropped down to League Two?

    If you don't understand the importance of a plan in business then whatever you do don't ever own one.

    Why would you buy a season ticket when nobody knows what’s going to happen? So Rupp doesn’t lose as much money?

    A warm summer evening with a few light ales on the way to and from the game, maybe some food and drink vans in the car park, is infinitely better than freezing in the stand and then walking back to the car in horizontal sleet.

    PL clubs had between them over £1bn in cash in their accounts in their most recent reports. If they’re truly interested in where they loan their Pickfords and Kanes to and where they buy their Vardy and Allis from they could each chip in some of their cash reserves to help. They won’t, but they should.

    You wonder about these people! “The PFA has an annual turnover and net asset position of circa £24million and £48million respectively, putting the union in a strong financial position to enable it to provide considerable sums of money to each individual PFA department to further the organisations key objectives and meet the needs of all our members”. https://www.thepfa.com/thepfa/finance/about

    Perhaps they should ‘invest in the future’ of the game?

    Let's be honest, the deadlines are nonsense at this point.

    No chance the club are sticking by them, nor should they.

    If they do, they will take a massive hit. It's all about good will right now.

    The club is alright in the short term but if this drags on which looks likely then the club will need our help by us buying season tickets.

    I've just renewed with a credit card, so should get a full refund if BCFC was unfortunate enough to go TU. £150 for a season ticket (plus book) is cheap as chips.

    The virus situation seems likely to get much worse before it gets better, but won't last forever.

    The current squad won't be with us forever.

    Let's all help City through this difficult time if we can! Keep safe everyone!
