Any news on this? A few ST holders may struggle to get to BP today, and with the game being potentially called off at any time up noon, or even beyond it would seem a good idea to at least open up a cash-back
or voucher system. If the decision to go ahead is still up in the air at say 11.00, and ST holder has to set off at 11.30 (in bad driving conditions) how about they cancel their season ticket for that match, should the game then go ahead with a late decision that fan receives a free pass to stream the game.
Something like this needs setting in place quickly, winters already looking a little harsh, would like suggestions and tweaks for this process.

Kinell, surely that’s something people should consider before buying a ST? How do you think there’s any way of practically administering it?

Football matches have been called off late for years. It’s your personal choice. You only pay for around 75-80% of the games anyway.

Why? Buying a ST is a gamble and commitment, when you buy one you know that. Why should I, or the remaining season ticket holders receive something for a game being off? Our ticket is valid for the game regardless of when it’s played?

If I choose not to attend I don’t see how that’s the clubs fault. I understand that there’s the buy back thing but again, it’s my choice to sell the ticket back.

Its a SEASON ticket, not 23 match tickets.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

How do you propose streaming it legally in a couple of weeks when Premier League football is back and the 3pm blackout is back?

A season ticket is all about the club earning a large sum of money at the beginning of the season. You buy it knowing some games may get moved and the club shouldn't be offering partial refunds on the basis it's too icy in the Peak District.
