    Its easy to work out.

    £150/26=£5.77 a game.

    We have 5 home games left.

    Its 5 games at £5.77 that you would in effect lose out on.

    So that's £28.85.

    You don't honestly believe the club will be enforced to reimburse the whole of your initial ST purchase? I can't see that happening.

    Almost every club outside the PL would just about go out of business in a flash.

    Can not see them giving you a refund on games that happened?

    As I said, thats you and your situation. Are you trying to shame me into not taking it up? Feeling good about myself doesnt pay my bills whereas getting some money back does. even 30 quid would help as thats the majority of my utilities paid for a month.

    Im not expecting one id like to add but if its offered i would take it. I think thats an important distinction to make, i dont even particularly think im entitled to one apart from legally speaking but as I said, every bit of money I can get back helps, especially since Ive just found out my employers fecked up the furlough scheme and none of us have been paid this month.

    What you actually said was: "sorry for not being as well off as you evidently are." Incorrect assumption.

    I wouldn't hold out any hope of getting anything back at all. More like some sort of offer for the next season whenever that happens.

    You must be a bright lad going to uni so look around and see what you can do online that could help make some money and pay the bills. eg Ebay-sell some unwanted possessions or dropship items etc etc doesn't cost a penny to set up.

    @YungNath@YungNath tell him to do one.

    The club will have to offer refunds. As stated two of the biggest clubs in the country have said this would be the case.

    Some sort of offer for next season? Such as what? It amazes me how people think next season happens if we can't end this.

    Drop shipping does cost to get started these days. A few years back maybe you could do it for free but it’s a saturated market these days and you need to spend to make yourself stand out. You also are generally going to need to order samples of all products because quality of similar items can vary and you need the products you seek to be good value and good quality to build a brand. If £30 would be a massive help to him the platform sub fee, domain name and marketing budget will be out of his budget

    West Ham takin get tax payers money to build their rubbish stadium.

    I've never seen a team so scare of l relegation without playing it's embarrassing!

    The West Ham way is clearly to be scared! Cowards! Micky mouse club in London.

    Don't see how any West Ham fan can have a go at any club using or attempting to use tax payers money when the tax payer paid most of the money for that stadium they play deadful football in.

    The club is a joke! Brady embarrassing the club every week writing in the low life uneducated paper The S@n...

    I would rather follow Halifax Town then that club with no class!

    Least smart West Ham fans understand your club own ran by idiots.

    Drop shipping via Ebay I meant. Not shopify etc. That costs a good chunk to get going mainly on ad spend and brand awareness.

    Dropshippers have reviews of products from customers so you can choose products that already sell and have been rated. Google trends can assist in that aspect as well showing what people are searching for.

    Still don't see the relevance.
    My comment was Liverpool may change their mind.

    So if you actually get a refund then this season has officially ended? Yes?

    So what would eventually follow would be next season.

    Nowhere have I read on here anyone saying next season can begin even though this season hasn't yet officially ended. Of course there has been discussion on when next season could start. Naturally that would depend on when this season ends.

    I also said in a post below im not expecting a refund but i am entitled to it if offered and would therefore take it. Ive taught myself video animation during the lockdown and am now charging to make animations to go with people's completed tracks as the Facebook algorithm shags your reach if you just post a soundcloud link, so a lot of people now post vids direct to FB instead. I'm also trying to get into mastering people's music but budgetary constraints mean I cant afford the gear my competitors in that field already have access to, so the quality of service I can provide just isn't on the same level as others charging similar to myself. I'm also due my first royalty payment soon from music I've released but especially with electronic music, nobody buys music anymore with the real money now being in merch and live performance.

    I havent just sat around on my arse saying woe is me, I taught myself a whole new skill that would fit alongside my current skill set and is relatively easy to monetise but building up a client base doesn't happen overnight. As with any self made business you dont just set up shop and = profit instantly, it takes time. i dont have anything to sell thats worth anything bar my laptop, I went down that route and hawked all my worthwhile shit off the last time i was flat broke haha. You've acknowledged Im a smart cookie so don't you reckon I've already thought of all this stuff and tried to implement it?

    No, I just used my common sense.

    Good luck getting the £150 though.

    What I'm saying is I don't know what I'll get and neither do you.

    If we're doing refunds for games already played, I'm going in for every home game since 99/00 on the basis we've been shit ever since. I feel cheated.

    Where in the terms and conditions does it say the refund is based on common sense? this is bradford city we're talking about lol. If its 30 or 150 I would take it because either sum would be a big help to me for the reasons Ive already mentioned. I dont understand peoples beef with taking a refund I'm entitled to and need as I'm in serious financial trouble from a club thats owned by a man thats worth 250 million pounds.
