I'm sure there will be something in the T&C's thats makes people aware that should the target not be achieved they will be seeking the additional payment.'"
There arent any terms and conditions on the letter, and the form says £100 and to buy, not pledge. I think the gist of it is that you should get your jacksy in gear and get it for £100, because you risk paying more if not enough sign up. On the other end, if loads sign up, everyone gets it for £100.
I can't say any other way it makes sense, or else who will make a promise to buy when the price could go up by 75%?

| Quote ="Slugger McBatt"That's not what the letter says. It says that it is £100, and that is the price on the form you return. It states that if 2,500 sign up, they will "keep" the price at £100. If less, it will revert to £175.
My reading of it is that it is £100 until 30th September. If you wait until after that date, there is a risk it will be £175.
It says £100 on the form, and so if I send it in with a cheque for £100, they can't ask for another £75 on 1st October.'"
I'm aware of that part and will endeavor to get that clarified as soon as I can
but even then that would be a price freeze for the second year
at the end of the day if its promoted right we shouldn't have a problem with 2500 members should we
if that is the case then the club have a massive uphill challenge

You're right snowie, I'd say with an average support of at least 4k, 2500 season tickets at £100 should be easily attainable, even if there is no promotion of the offer beyond tomorrow's announcement. However the apathy of the Wakefield public can never be underestimated.
A while ago Eric France offered to double the money the club received from ST sales if the club hit a mark, I forget the figure, but it wasn't insurmountable, yet it wasn't achieved.

slightly different the club has genuinely offered a fantastic deal to the fans whether they get the coach that the fans want and in doing so will help bring in the players as the monies come in
come what may before Sept 30th I'll be getting my family gold season tickets
last year my money went to Ted and if I knew what was to happen I would of held back and Andrew would of got it, he honoured the season tickets for this season as dire as it has been so I can surly at least give him the chance with my money next season

Have they interviewed Goulding though? And if they have, does it matter? As long as they get the appointment right, they can interview whoever they want in my opinion. But we won't know if the appointment is right until well into next season.

If I was playing stand off and I 'ran' onto the field I'd need oxygen to support me
Didn't AG say somewhere that we had 3 excellent candidates: Agar, Millward, my money is on Tony Smith (from the Australian part of Cas)
Apparently we will be announcing next week, perhaps to take some of the thunder away from the cup final

I would say Millward, purely on the basis that he's not Agar.

Everyone seems to know what's going on and who is nailed on for which job. However they are all coming up with different names so they can't all be right, or can they?

I'll make my judgement when the new coach is announced, but I can't promise it will be the same opinion ten games into next season!

| Whoever is the coach wouldn't change my mind about renewing my season ticket. Have done so for the last 20 odd years and sometimes with less enthiasm then I hold for next year. Think the worst was when we renewed the season tickets before the million pund game against Cas. think that was more of a gamble then the offer until end of September.

10 games that seems very rational! I prefer to write of the new coach before he's even been appointed!

But being mentioned on here doesn't mean that they are actually candidates, does it?

It is an exceptionally good deal if it is what I think it is. Only a quid off what Ken Davey called the biggest thing since Neil Armstrong landed on the moon, or whatever.

Exactly some of our fans are only happy when they are moaning, if we won the grand final they'd still find something to moan about. This season has been crap on the field we all knew it would be due to the circumstances we found ourselves in and we can't wait for this season to finish. But next season new start decent squad been assembled, ground improvements and a brilliant season ticket offer. I'm on board no matter who the new coach is I'm Wakefield till I die and excited about our future

| At the end of the day it's our club but we have no sway on the coach we get, this will be up to the club to decide
while I have my own personal views on who should be taking over =#000080I will continue to watch the team as much as I can afford to go to the games who ever takes over this year.
to go so far and turn my back on the club while it recovers from its lowest season in SL is not an option, we have seen what it can be like at Belle Vue I just do not see the problem
I just wish it was me beating the drum on the PR machine
