Yes that’s what annoys me, no problem being asked to list a ticket I’m not using but to then have mine and the lads season tickets revoked because of it…While I am in agreement with the proposals in the main. But I know families who went to all the day and some night time fixtures and got all their stamps from the family zone but could not attend mid week night games (of which we had loads due to changed fixtures). Fine, resell the tickets but to ban youngsters for not attending midweek games (if there is 10) it could look bad.
What we saying then - FZ tickets staying at current price levels or is Doug going to whack them up?
Don’t dispute there are a lot of adults going in at cheaper prices without kids but the tone of the communication leaves a nasty taste.
For all the talk about back the club I’m still unsure if Doug has actually put any of his own money in.
Must have bought the club, got Sisu out and cleared the debts with Monopoly money thenHe hasnt. Thats why this summer is the acid test for me
But he may even escape it this summer depending on Vik or Sheaf
Love how people are acting like you're being banned from ever entering the ground if you can't attend every game
If you can't attend more than half the games then let someone who can turn up week in week out buy a season ticket for the family zone and just buy tickets on a match by match basis who you want to go.

I’m pretty sure it was reported that he acquired the club due to a debt from SISU.Must have bought the club, got Sisu out and cleared the debts with Monopoly money then

He’s made some cracking decisions with his lot as well as a couple of bum onesHe never brought the club. Dont know how many times i have to say it. He was owed millions by SISU. He had the ability to put them under with what he was owed from previous deals with them.
They didnt have a pot to piss in, we sold Hyam to pay the tax bill, not the pitch, Overson paid for the pitch (I've seen the proof) we were weeks away from going under.
The club was given to Doug as his only way of getting his cash back. Thats why everything is short term. 5 year stadium deal, 5 year premier league package, he isnt here for the long haul. He has done Ryton up off the back off the Vik and Gus money, because Ryton is our only tangible asset for a sale, brought players off the back of Vik and Gus. He openly admitted he didnt know where the CBS was and had never been to a football match before. He was literally unheard of until the club release the tweet saying he owns 80%.
None of the above is to slight him (although pissed off after yesterday's announcement) because he has done well so far, there is no denying we are in a much better place.
But to seriously assume he has had to put his hand in his own pocket, and not be living off Vik and Gus, and also the play off final and fa cup semi run, is disingenuous to me

Tbf though, people change. He might legit like owning a football club... if you've got a shit ton of money it's probably quite fun. I'd imagine he'll try and turn a quick profit if we get promoted soon but also believe its possible for him to get attached to the club he owns.He never brought the club.

Some form of evidence may help with this.He never brought the club. Dont know how many times i have to say it.

Anyone you recommend?If you ever get the chance ask someone that works at the club or knows the players the question
You'll get the answer
Did he hint at this change to the family zone Pete or has he just gone off half cocked like last year?He’s made some cracking decisions with his lot as well as a couple of bum ones
No hintsDid he hint at this change to the family zone Pete or has he just gone off half cocked like last year?
Can't introduce that eventually to all?The simple solution would be fz prices. £350 adults £100 kids. Would quickly be resolved.

If that's the case then they need to do something with the kid's JSB pricing for walk ups.
The article says it averages a third of seats unused in the family zone and there will be a way to resell those. I had assumed, perhaps wrongly, they would be resold in line with the reduced pricing in the FZ, not the full ticket price in the rest of the groundIf that's the case then they need to do something with the kid's JSB pricing for walk ups.

Agree but at full price not the discounted rateIf they're going to resell tickets, they also need to allow adult to buy in that section without a child. We have 3 season tickets for me, dad & daughter. My wife makes about half the games so buys on the day often somewhere else then moves to by us so another wasted seat as you can only buy an adult and child online, it's ridiculous and I'm not wasting a journey midweek to pay over the counter. Crazy situation.
Something like thatMust have bought the club, got Sisu out and cleared the debts with Monopoly money then
