    I think people find problems for the sake of just read the update slowly and there is nothing complicated about it. And the proviso at the end was also very clear

    I don’t think so re finding problems, some people just get frustrated with the amateurishness of the club, personal view is it read crap with some contradictions that lead to a bit of confusion and needing to re read , it shouldn’t need specific ‘slow’ reading instructions, ultimately it’s outlining a simple concept !

    So we agree they promised ‘nothing’?

    However by suggesting a number of ‘if’s/but’s/maybes‘, by using terms like, ‘TheClub hopes’, ‘potential package’, then describing the possible ‘package’, specifically mentioning i-Follow, that they have built up an ‘anticipation’?

    For me, you should only talk about things which you are in a position to provide.

    Tonight I ‘hoped’ that the ‘potential’ for me to win the Euro Lottery could be achieved. Out of my hands, but just thought I would mention it.

    In respect of the ground capacity, the Claret or Amber pass, plus not being able to have your usual seat, then for sure those ‘updates’ were fine.

    However to then go on about something which is out of your hands, in respect of a combined i-Follow option, which was out with their control, was in my mind wrong.

    The club have not named the players they may wish to sign, because that is out of their control. That is the correct business model, in my mind. If you cannot see that there are clear parallels.... well!

    Has there been any talk of an option for fans in your situation who might want to return to their current seat in the following season? I think it's Rochdale (or it might be Pompey) who are doing something on those lines via their flexi system.

    Due to work commitments, its likely to be no....

    See if I can sort something out first at work but working in retail, I understand I need to be flexible in this current economic environment

    Spoken to a couple of friends and are leaning towards no, but will make an informed decision once all the info is known.

    If I can get over in October (flights already booked) and not be quarantined, I'll try to find a way to get a ticket. Other than that, might resort to ifollow. One thing's certain, it's going to be a little strange this season.

    7k season tickets only..

    Salary Cap has come in. You understand it's not up to fans to hold the club up now.

    That was the statement today wasn't it? Only 7k allowed in.

    Either way if fans are not going to go then don't buy a ticket. Keep your money as you might need it!!

    I’m guessing he thinks all 14k will sell out

    My accountant makes things clear. That statement wasn't clear.

    Only a fool would buy a season ticket at this moment when it's not clear what is what!!

    The club statement includes both of these paragraphs:

    "The club would be unable to guarantee any supporter any seat inside the Utilita Energy Stadium, due to social-distancing restrictions, and so would then allocate each supporter a seat from the point of purchase."

    "If you have already purchased a 'City For All' season ticket, this will be honoured and you would receive the proposed, aforementioned package."

    I bought my ST when they were first announced. Do those two statements mean that I'm guaranteed my usual seat this season, if and when I choose to go, or not?

    Confused of Baildon

    It can't guarantee your seat as it can't do the same for those immediately around you...
