Just been asked a question and here is the answer.

If you have bought a season ticket in April, or May this will be deducted from the price of the 20 years ST.

Why only over 65s ? Please don't say it's because they think they won't have to honour it surely !!!

I would think they will see it as a challenge to honour it :)


What would people like to see ? 5 year ticket for 3 year price ? 10 years for 7 year price. I'm sure the club could come up with any permutation, unless of course there are football league rules to say you can't.

10 year ticket might be a good offer, Premier league games at 2015 league 2 prices :)

That thought did cross my mind too, is there a condition attached that they would have to have a parent with them as well? :p

I'd seriously buy 2 season tickets for my little Boys (1&2) if they were 5 times £20 (under 12s price) for 20 years entrance.

You'd only have to be around for 6 years to get the benefit of it, never mind the extra 14 years!

Hopefully the club can come up wth a season ticket for the younger generations which would be better for the club long term in building a fanbase!

I can reckon up baldy, its me sense of humour.

I am against this idea, the main reason being the club needs cash flow every summer

When I read this I thought is was an innovative idea tongue in cheek. However many of the suggestions coming from this seem to have a great deal of merit, we need to discuss this further at the supporters club meeting. so please come along. Thursday 18th June 7.15pm. we need more members to attend if possible.

An 18 year season ticket for kids? Would an ideal gift for all newborns in the borough

Where's there's no sense, there's no feeling.

Clubs trying but another silly idea in my eyes!

We need to be trying more to get the younger generation and families through the door! And especially the youngsters for our future!

Nothing silly about trying to get cash in up front. So if Cashy (say - other old gits are available :)) lives to a hundred and Stanley stay in the FL with admission around £20 he'll be quids in and the club quids out, eventually, but if something causes him to stop attending - say he falls (further) out with the manager and takes his business elsewhere, that'll be £1000 quid to help us get through the summer that we wouldn't get otherwise.

Obviously you're right about the younger generation, but the two aren't mutually exclusive (unless home gates goes up to 5000, in which case who cares :confused:).

Yup - how many pensioner season tickets are sold each year?

What's the plan for 7 years down the line when that dries up?

It may have been carefully thought out analysing what age people tend to stop going, or maybe not? It seems like tempting fate, if I was 70 getting a 20 year season ticket would be something I wouldn't dare dream of doing as I know I would not be able to go after a year.

Leeds did this for general season tickets in around 2004, you added a nought for a 20 year ST (i.e. 20 years for current 10). The fears are if a club is in a desperate position to do it, who is to say it will be honoured in the future.

I think a debentures may be the way forward rather than buy a brick. This is how it could work. I lend Stanley £4000 for 20 years, they pay me £4000 at the end of the 20 years interest free. During which time as a debenture holder I see all the home games for free. It depends how much they need the money now, and what for.
