What rules was I looking to change? I'm only looking for a choice when it comes to a season ticket. I never go the stand, always the ground, so why shouldn't there be the choice (as there was last season) of season tickets?

If you reckon that �200 for three games is value, then there's really no point arguing. You've lost all grip of the financial reality that many Town supporters have to face. Fair fooks that you can earn that much, and have the drive to do it - but other supporters simply don't have �200 to throw around.

i can't make it to every game, ok....so how do i show my support, light blub over head,buy a season ticket !!!

the two of yee just whing whing whing about everything....xlex i'm no big shot, i have ideas and put them out there, i have little spare time but would enjoy doing something for the club...

i feel my 200 is making a difference, what board member does not ageee, name them or withdraw it, your the one always going on about gossip and hearsay....

macy i was reacting to something xlex said, people like macy, etc.....

here is a way to give some finanical support to the club, write out a cheque and send it to them ????? you'll get some satisfactionm there won't you ???

Fair enough Max...

You feel as you do. We feel as we do... that's it really.

The club can make their �200 from you. They'll lose mine.

its not a major global company, its your local football club "they are not gonna make 200 euro on me".....stop buying the scarfs they are making 50 cent on them !!! you know where the money is going, you can't see it on the field and under your bum.......and most importantly in the trophy cabinet....

i have made an offer to sit down with any interested parties and set up a supporters marketing committee, based in longford or dubin, i'll get an ad in the papers and on various web sites...i don't have much free time at the weekends but i'm willing to put in an effort if anyone else is........we could sponser a player, darragh ha ha !!!

t shirts, family day are just two ideas i came up with over a day....even if the club take one idea it will be one of ours and that has to be worth the effort.....so anyone gonna step up to the plate and make themselves heard, some don't agree with sc etc so here is your chance....i'll be in town on sunday if anyone wants to meet up......

Sorry for butting in here but I would have thought that clubs should price the season tickets to attract new fans, rather than trying to get more money from established fans.

Oh and for Pats LC games are with season ticket FAi cup games aren't

Well it would be interesting to see whether we could sell over double the tickets if we had a package like Galways....

Extra curricular activities are out for me for a year, bar the proposal that myself and Xlex have already done a good bit of work on already, which won't be applicable till next season at this stage anyway...

Well considering f*ck all people bought season tickets last year one would have thought we would be making them more attractive..A lot of people just want to pay on the day though and 12 and 10 isnt outrageous..Kids/U-16 will be only about 5 i'd say. Macy/Xlex no-one's going to question your commitment just because you dont buy a season ticket..As you pointed out theres the draw which is a considerable outlay in itself and theres bound to be other fundraisers that can be supported too..Season tickets aint the be-all and end-all..From what i've heard ,and i cant say who told me to protect them (sorry Max), not all the board was in favour of the season ticket prices but that was the price that was set..Havent heard 100% that theres not going to be ground season tickets either..

I heard from gheewhizz today that there will be no season ticket for the ground-�200 is a significant amount to fork out. Looks like it is a bit too short of notice to get a season ticket as I have other commitments.

I heard that the ground and stand tickets for one match is for�10 only.

I wish we could have done the season ticket offer a lot more attractive than the one we have.

Cant see many extra supporters cumin thro the gate. Ye know what Longford are the biggest bandjumpers of them all. Hopefully I am proved wrong....

Really? It actually surprises me that sod all people brought ST. I would've thought most of the regulars would have them...

btw I actually said that 12 and 10 wasn't that bad, my complaint is that there's no ground season ticket.

btw2 Marty - it can't be �10 throughout if the ST represents a saving...

**Longfordian** · 04/03/2004, 6:06 PM

Yeah..very few were sold.I agree about the ground season ticket too, they should have one. Dont know what the reasoning was there..

**Martinho II** · 04/03/2004, 10:12 PM

I heard today that the reason there is no ground season ticket is because there were people trying to get into the stand with their ground season tickets and this was a major reason why they have scrapped the ground season ticket.
