Good news to come?

Dont think so, just skimmed through the first 8 pages and no one seems to have noticed.

It got a whole thread of its own.

Any thoughts that the contractor appointment & late sping start talks, being just a season ticket booster?
Could RM do such a thing? :stunned:

Why would Ron saying the stadium would be started do anything for season tickets next year when we would still be at Roots Hall ?

Ah totally missed that thread, would have made far more sense for this one to have been updated!

Can see why it went under the radar and at least clarified on now so it doesnt get raised again...

Well done Beefy. I've been driving myself mental trying to find that thread.

hadnt thought of that lol :blush:
My thinking was along the lines of creating a feelgood factor around the club for the fans, to create a feel to buy/renew tickets. A bit like bringing back ex-club players.

Its a typical public display of "strength" from Ron to get things moving along.

Unless something can be sorted with Prospects (which to my knowledge has hit a brick wall) then I cannot see anything happening in Spring.

Any feel good factor that would bring would be negligible and would be totally destroyed when nothing happened.

By that time season ticket money would be safely in the bank and used. It's not like it hasn't been done before, a la Share issue. Unlikely it's a ploy to gain season ticket sales I agree but short term gains are not without precedent. Or am I just being cynical?

No one is going to rush out and buy a season ticket because Ron says the stadium might still be started. There is no purpose in doing so and we have all heard of start dates for years.

We havent even tried to sell season tickets early for the first time in years.

The share issue was totally different, it was just a way of getting money into the club, nothing more.

The last line is just as Razam was saying. A means of getting money into the club. I'm not saying it's true but can understand his thoughts. Different opinions.
