Steve Ferres has said nothing of the sort. He said we cannot give huge discounts. So you're factually incorrect again. At no stage has any pricing been confirmed; in fact, it is people hypothesising and reading into statements that do not actually say anything of the sorts.

The club cannot justify a price increase and I will be surprised if there is.

If you think they're trying to sweeten things up with the pathetic "membership" scheme plan before announcing a price hike then you're deluded.

The only reason they're offering extras next year will be to justify a price increase, because they need to do that because the on field product certainly isn't worth anything close to what this year cost, nevermind what it would with a price increase.

Or to encourage people there's more value in them and to get people to buy them.

Let's face it, 5000 members is not achievable through the current ST offering given current circumstances.

I fully anticipate a price freeze.

That will never be achievable as long as they keep putting dross out, treating the fans like crap, playing in a crap stadium with a pathetic excuse for a coach too.

If they think a scheme where you'll get 10% off a replica shirt or something like that will encourage people to all of a sudden buy season tickets - it isn't going to work.

The only thing that will is a good squad that is well coached and some good news on the new stadium, until then people will stay away. The club needs to be proactive and not rely on fans for everything, all the time. Bullying fans into buying season tickets or else they can't make signings is not how to run a business or get fans on board.

I want to be constructive, but I have to go to work, but I am more othe side of negativity here.

I have said tons of times, a small number of excellent and value loyalty schemes with tiered benefits, not an entire rethink and try and find a magic bullet.

Expectations for next year; another year of expectations. Will be better than this season, I strongly expect the vigilante posse to force more change, which will have the affect of change and oddly leave us languishing for longer while people "build their own thing".... High level change is a 2-4 year thing to bear fruit as a minimum, so next year is year 1 and 2 respectively so I expect little.

My attitude towards Cas is anything but what you've said. I do, however, prefer to know all of the facts before passing comment. Where exactly has Steve Ferres said ST will increase in price for 2013 and do you know / has he said by how much?

Yes i will renew my season ticket for 2013...simply because i fear it could be the club's final year in S.L.

No news forthcoming on glasshoughton,a small squad which no doubt by beefed up with loan signing (again) and a clueless coach steering it i really do fear the worst
