The Fans have the right to be annoyed about ST rises, the Club Owners aren't showing any signs of Ambition by putting money into the team so why should the Fans be asked too?
We are 5 points away from a playoff spot lets see the investment & commitment from the owners for a change!!

It seems that Sam Rush is now picking off individual fans' complaints about the price increases, particularly with regard to disabled fans and the questionable advice they're being given to move to the cheaper category seats that have been introduced. Er - things like easy level access, space, etc are prerequisites for our disadvantaged supporters; not available in other areas.

This just isn't practical for many fans, and not preferable for still more. perhaps some younger fans might say "so what - I'll get a cheaper seat", but they should stop to cxonsider whether they are indirectly condoning the unfair pricing policy that the club has presented before doing so.

If Sam's first objective is to increase spend per head (rather than promotion), surely a modest across-the-board increase would have been a safer & fairer option. Whaever trust he might have built in his first month with fans has been damaged, I think. "Fans First"?

Fans often complain about being marginalised by clubs,and having no say in policies, ticket pricing, etc- isn't this a good opportunity for supporters to stand together as a group and say "NO"?
