I've got a question for those that could get a season ticket but are choosing not to until they see a product on the park worth the money, or see signs that the board are doing their bit for it.
At what point would you accept that the Board have done enough to justify you parting with your cash?

Good quality players in key positions.
A leader we can relate too, who leads by example.
The small chance there might actually be some entertainment on show.
Not much to ask in my opinion.
I could have said.....
A team that's capable of a top three finish. ( that's what we should be )
A team that is capable of winning things. ( not a hope )
A team that is capable of spanking the ****s...( .. Not in my lifetime sadly )
Some seem happy to wallow in mediocrity, I'm not.
I realise it's going to take time but we must not keep making the same mistakes, we must start to put things right on and off the park.
If I was to see some of these things I might be tempted to buy a ST.
As it stands there isn't a hope in hell I'll buy one.
Put a team on the park and people will come.Last edited by Littlest Hobo; 30-06-2012 at 10:50 AM.

I have parted with my cash for me and my son for ST for the new season ahead.
I would like to see at least five new players in the team for next season.

Reason for choosing Other:
I will be at most games this season PATG but i'm currently priced out of the ST and wasn't in a position to get the payment plan at the time. It's just unfortunate our club is using seasonn ticket money to bolster the squad. I just hope the PATG money I put in last year helped the pot this year.

How many times? Watching the match from your own pitch side jacuzzi whilst a lycra clad Rod Petrie feeds you grapes just isn't going to happen. Originally Posted by Desperate Dan

(I can see why some would find this upsetting though.)Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

Got mine way back on the first day we were able to get season tickets for this coming season. Love the club so much, I was PATG for 3 seasons due to work and my boss said next season is fine to go to all the Hibs games. Couldn't resist it really, especially at £95 for a student in the FF lower.

Been working on this principle for a couple of seasons now, ie without my money the team cannot be helped to develop. However this season is different as I am now priced at £400 for a ticket in the West Stand, coupled with travelling costs it about doubles by the time I take this into account. I will go to games- it's in the blood - but not every home game that's all. I went to 2 away games last season (Dunfermiline and SCSF) and enjoyed them far more than any home game last season bar Dunfermiline at home.

Other - A season ticket for £400 is just too expensive now, I'll get to as many games as I can, and might think about a half season ticket later in the season.

Newco in 3rd division. Then I'll join.

I'll buy an ST the moment Sevco are treated the same as any newco club applying to the league.
If they get into Division 1 Scottish Football will get nothing more from me.
As for signings, I accept nothing extravagant will arrive at ER in the current climate.

There's nothing the club can do now to get me to renew.
I want to see an improvement on the park and if I start enjoying myself at games again ill maybe get a half season ticket

Going to miss three home games due to holidays and therefore it just isn't value for money.

I voted wont change my mind, i can afford one but really dont want to, yip i know all season ticket money goes towards the squad but i like to pick and choose what games i go watch, i also went to almost every away game last season rather than home as i felt the atmosphere was better and it was a more enjoyable day/night out
