I’d be shocked if he backed down and changed it.

Pretty sure he said in a recent interview that he was changing the way ST's are structured, and would stand by his decisions and accept responsibility if he got it wrong.

Doubt it, Reynolds is pumping in millions and not asking for any of it back.

He is, all he’s doing is loaning money to the club. Interest rate around 7%

Abramovich loaned over a billion to Chelsea and never called it in. Reynolds never would either.

So it's praise because he's putting money in but accruing interest? Sounds like sisu.

It's loans, he's hardly just gifted it.

Yeah what's it being compared to.

The premier ones selling quicker than the first day of early bird last year?

Not a shock, if you were going to sit in the new premium zone you'd be stupid not to get the premier package

How does it work then? How can they sell a seat in the premium zone, before the present ticket holder has had chance to renew?

They will be renewals or free seats.

The majority will be season ticket holders already in those blocks, just paying the extra £20.

If it’s a loan you don’t plan to call in, it’s basically a gift.

The benefit is they will sell other tickets at far greater price which will subsidise it. For example I had an early bird concession ticket in block 21 last season cost £295. This season as I’m 62 it will cost me £480 to sit in the same seat. Or if I move £400.

I disagree... yours have increased significantly for a different reason, they're not going to find thousands of extra people to buy all these season tickets at the higher costs...

Those willing to pay higher costs already have tickets

It would have looked far better to just increase concession age a year at a time. Sure, somebody still misses out, but at least anybody already paying the discount rate wouldn't be hit by a huge price rise.

That would be a good idea and fair, would soon catch up basically those already having one, bit of hard luck for the 59 year olds though.

I'll just get hold off the bank with your argument and see what they say. Though I suspect it will finish with 'off'.

If you loan someone money you clearly have the desire to get it back, otherwise you'd provide grants or gifts.

Mr Abramovich recalled his loans how many times? Football finances are an anomaly to real world finances by and large.

Why would the Wrexham owners wind up their own publicity project?

Who said wind it up?

You made out it was a gift but it's an interest bearing loan.

If they call in the loans there’s no way the club could afford it so they’d go pop. On paper Chelsea owed Abramovich well over £1 billion, in 20 years he didn’t call any of it in.

It’s also unclear how much of their investment SISU got back from King, if any.

Just mentioned to my wife that I'm going to renew my ST (she knows nothing about football, except my love of CCFC). She replied 'they've gone up haven't they? £400 I heard on the radio' I waited for the follow up grumble about cost. Didn't come. Must have done something right, or she's done something wrong!

No I mean they themselves no longer funded the club at all. It was external investors through the two funds and in the end - clearly - they did want returns

It’s not the same as Ryan Renolds
