| That list of benefits isn't really anything more than a bog standard season ticket is it (express entry to the stadium?). Didn't Chalmers promise a bit of a beefier membership package than this?
Considering we don't know how many games we are playing (League 1 yet to confirm how many teams are in the mix for next year), the impending court case etc, I don't think many folk will be shelling out this side of Christmas, if at all. Can't blame them for trying though

Are the club installing some sort of helter skelter for 'Express Entry'?!
When does the early bird offer expire, unless I'm blind and can't find it on the website??

Add that to the list of other broken promises. Up there with "we're aware of the website and social media and dealing with it".
What was the target for season tickets again? 300? Might just do it.

Even if it's changed to play every team home and away (which it won't be), that's still 15 games. Which is effectively what we were sold this season (14 or 15 games). So the price is staying the same for lesser value (i.e. opponents only marginally better than your local amateur side). After the early bird deadline (whenever they decide that is), it'll be higher price for lesser value. In my humble opinion, it's a fecking rip off. And I won't be paying it. First time since I came off shift 16 years ago that I won't have a season ticket, and won't be paying on the day either. I am pig bloody sick of being ripped off by the club. I'll stick to away games instead next season and every season until I feel like they're not trying to use me as a bloody cash cow.
The only way I get a season ticket next season is if this restructuring rumour comes to fruition. Which I don't want to happen as I don't agree with damaging the competition and sporting principles for monetary reasons. At least then though, the club won't be ripping me off by charging me the same price as this year.
Never felt worse about my club than I do now.

I think that is where they push us through the turnstiles so that we dont change our mind about paying to watch $hite

it's sold it for me that, that's it I'm in.
Never mind watching the dross on the pitch, and the non-existant communication, and the embarrassing media releases, it was the 10 seconds of queuing to get in that has annoyed me this year.

| Until there is a definitive statement from the RFL about the precise structure for 2018 then I don't how its morally acceptable to be selling tickets
The website only speaks about 'regular season games'. Not Championship Shield games then? Not League 1 Play Off games? Does that mean 8 home games as this year in League 1, or 12 as in this years Championship?
Until we know with total clarity what we are being asked to buy, why would anyone hand over £199? I know where my money is staying (and it's nowhere near Odsal)

| Express EXIT from the stadium may help to budge more tickets if we start serving up the same stuff next season as we have done this.

| £150 over 52 weeks a year is £2.88 a week, is it such a great expense to pay to keep our club alive? yes it's been a tough year but to turn your back on the club when it most needs supporting for less than £3 a week. No white knight with a pot of gold is going to come to bradford so it's up to us, the hardcore of supporters to ride the storm and rebuild

How many years on the trot now have we been told we have to pay for the team? How many years are we told that if we don't buy a season ticket, we'll lose the club? Seriously, get fecked. Play on someone else's fecking heart strings and beg someone else for money. The owners need to stop treating the fans like fecking cash cows and realise that ripping them off and constantly feeding them bullsh*t is only going to make your fanbase much smaller and put you out of business. Treat the fans with respect and they'll treat you with the same. Treat them like cash cows and they'll tell you right where to go.

| Yeah I agree, I think it's daft of the owners to expect income for a sports club to come from fans and tickets sales plus sponsorship deals they appear to have lined up. They need to tap into that other well known income stream for struggling sports clubs! Oh yeah, there isn't one!

Sounds like good business sense to me. Treat the fans with respect and they'll come flooding back into the stadium. The place will be awash with cash piled on the pitch. Seriously, get real. What exactly do you want? From nothing - nothing - this club is still afloat; in the position where we knew we should rightly be (albeit 12 months later than should have been); with a good (but smaller) core of true supporters; and planning to move forward in the coming years. Now, how would you NOT treat the fans like cash cows given the circumstances? You surely don't still believe in money trees?

For a start I'd like to know how long I've got to take up this early bird offer, what the price will be after that, what the match day price will be and how many home games we'll have. You know the basic stuff you'd expect to be told in a season ticket offer.
Without that info I can't justify spending money on a pass time I haven't enjoyed in years.
I'm mindful of the fact I got duped into buying one early last year only to find out days later it was so that Greene wasn't trading insolvent and wasn't for the Bulls.

| What if they know the season is going to be the same or more games ala a restructure?
With 2 more teams you would get more for your money?

Exactly how I see it. Yes there are many things to complain about but can I walk away when I see it as one entry fee every two weeks - £7 a week. I will complain but will then still turn up as I have done it for just about 40 years now and £7 a week over 21 weeks won't stop that.

| I can't understand some fans, 9 months ago there was no bulls, and everyone was upset, unless I'm daft everyone who has been going to the new bulls will have known the situation it was in from the birth of the new club, and know you are all complaining about playing in the lower league and the price, what do you lot want, either get behind the club or trot on some place else, the club want positivity not negativity, coyb

| It's not as black and white as that. In February I was just happy to have a club. Now I want to see progress and us aspiring to improve. I'd probably buy a season ticket if:
1. I knew for sure what division we were playing in and how many games in total the season ticket covered.
2. I knew whether we had a squad that was a very good bet to get promoted from C1 or get in the top 6 of the championship.
3. I knew that we had a head coach that was proven in winning games at whatever level we're in.
4. I knew that off the field the back office was working as hard as it could to take the club forward.
Unfortunately none of those things are clear. Simply just being grateful to have a club won't wash anymore. If you want people to be positive you have to do better than say "you've got a club haven't you?" That's no way to market anything. People don't want to feel obligated to go out of emotional blackmail.

| I'll get one as it's a social thing for me. But the news of Oakes has definitely raised my optimism for next year. But the structure needs sorting out before the majority sign up for one.
Regarding the structure, I noticed the guy who does the media for York (which puts sl clubs to shame) saying they also had to put ST for sale as they can't just wait around for weeks while the RFL decide on the structure.
