    I think the April cut off will bite the club on the ass and hard!! They will attract 0 floaters at this rate. Really grim situation down at VP low prices and very poor sales is a disastrous combo.

    i completely agree, but it's just frustrating when those that shout the loudest are the first to give up.

    Tbh l would not have bought ST's with the lad at uni, but l would have bought 2 Flexis. Then it could gone either way, a drab season & the club getting maybe £200, or a good season with the club getting £300/400. But with the April cut off they are getting nowt and l am not bothered, l need to get a feel for what is going on, l reckon there are loads like me.

    I don't much care for the attitude of fans who fork out a mighty £6.50 per game and then fire barbs at others from their 150 nicker thrones.

    Got. I a already as far as buying one it makes no difference what league we are in. Who owns us, who manages us or who plays for us the club is in the blood as long as I stay in good health and I am able to travel I will buy a season ticket at whatever price.
    It’s not as if Division two is a new concept for us so if we go down and it is still a big If hopefully plenty will feel the same way to help us back up. Football is cyclical and we will bounce back

    Have you no friends.............................who go to City?

    Could you not sit with your friends, if your lad is away at Uni?

    The vast majority of University courses do not start until October, finish mid December until second week in January and then have at least two weeks off over Easter. So he could probably get to half the games. You could use his ticket for other friends/family when he wasn’t around.

    Think it is quite funny from a few weeks ago when many here were suggesting that we should increase season ticket prices to "support the club" yet now have all gone quiet. These are the times where the club genuinely needs us. Do think the low price helps whatever league we are in but im still hoping its league one.

    Yep, sat with them in kop block L v Oxford, have others in MR & Sunwin. But it was my son going that kept me buying ST's, without him my surefire reason has gone.

    I know people who's lives revolve around BCFC, nothing can be arranged without them checking fixtures, no way will they miss a home game, great, every club needs them.

    But they are not me, l don't have the enthusiasm left in me, after decades of mostly useless underachieving nothingness, to "go again", l am not watching BCFC in L2 nor struggling in L1 AGAIN, they've had a good run out me

    Having missed a few home games this season due to holidays/weather, then l would not term myself a fanatic!

    I guess it takes a wide range of people, to make up a football teams supporters.

    We all have different takes on the matter.

    I will renew, my daughters do not make every match, one only a few a season. However our choice as a family/friends group will be to renew.

    Even if I only got to 15/16, then having a ST makes sense to me.

    £150 is cheap enough for us not to worry about value for money and the four of us will be renewing. I do think affordable football has been J Rhodes greatest contribution in his time at BCFC. Hats off to him for that!

    There's no way next season could be so abysmal as this one. We've truly scraped the barrel.

    Re Abbomf, I've sat by myself for the occasional match and it's fine - give it a try. There's not very much else you can do for £150.

    Well.......right now l am in ltaly (mods can check my location) having watched Fiorentina v Napoli for not much more than £150!

    Bradford City v Forest Green/Morecambe etc does not get my wallet out.

    You could have watched Empoli, more of a Bradford City groove there.

    Having said that I hope we do not go the way of the local (former) alternative AC Siena!;)

    I was originally undecided but it's now a firm no unless we go on a great run before the cut off point.

    At that price you can do both.

    I watched Greuther Furth v Erzgebirge Aue recently and it was brilliant for the novelty value. Watching the game with a pint in my hand was terrific - and my hand nearly froze off to prove it!

    But it was a one off. £150 covers all City home matches and I'm not a Furth lad and you're not a Naples lad ...

    They should have increased prices because if we don’t improve we won’t sell many.

    I'm 100% getting the flexi card for next season, haven't had one in recent years due to price increases, but with the price being dropped back to £50 I think it's worth getting.

    Even if we're in League 2 next season.

    COME ON CITY!! :D
