Will I go to a game this season? 12:50 - Jul 17 with 440 viewssaint901

I have been a ST holder at The Dell and SMS but gave them up for good about four seasons ago.

Aside from being disillusioned about football in general - the PL in particular - and the constant money grabbing tactics of the authorities and the club, I was thoroughly fed up with either walking from the station to the ground (and back) and fighting my way onto a train with a lot of away fans or sitting in a traffic jam on the Avenue for 45 minutes.

I became a member instead when the game times started being messed around for TV and the club was perfectly happy to please the TV people and ignore the fans.

Last season was a bad one. No plan, a stubborn manager, inadequate playing squad, but the above issues continuing.

I attended my first game in 1962. I like to think that I've been a loyal fan. I do however feel somewhat betrayed by the club in recent years as fans and their wishes are relegated to the lowest priority.

My present position is that unless I can see signs of there actually being a plan from the ownership and management that is reflected in the playing squad, then I'm not going to acquire a ticket for a 3pm Saturday match which may be changed to 8pm Monday without much notice.

I feel that I've made a contribution to the club over the years and now I need to see some effort from them before I pay them more money.

You get much more notice of a change in scheduling of matches in the Championship.

We now know which games have been moved up to the end of September.

Around the time of our first game against Wrexham, we will then know which games will be re-scheduled all the way up to Christmas.

I would say give it a try.

With no VAR, there will be far less enjoyment being sapped away from your soul this season.

Sport Republic have got an awful lot wrong in their time of owning the Club, but even so, we should still be in a good place to have a successful season.

I am looking forward to it.
