Watching the Plymouth game on TV they have said that 90% of Plymouth fans have opted not to have their season tickets refunded for games they are missing.
Refreshing to hear that |  |

Presumably they have they deferred it for next season?
I would have preferred that as I get the odd bits of cash every now and then and I don't really notice 1/19 of the costs. I know I should set up a separate account to save the money for next season but in a way I'd rather the club had just kept my money for next season as I'll end up spending it without really noticing. |  | | |

It's because their fans know that their club genuinely needs the money to survive. |  |

Funny enough Nick, I have only ever been a Saints member as I could never afford a season ticket but always purchased my membership every year even though, all too often, it made little difference to my ability to get a ticket for certain games. But, I had a sense of pride of being a Saints member - stupid I know, but I did.
Anyway, I did think, even though it would have been of little use this season I would have willingly renewed my membership for the same fee as last season especially if it would have helped the club in some small way. | | | |

Good point, they don’t have the sky money or even the marketing turnover of Saints, let alone the Arsenals or Liverpools of this world.. |  |

After the restart, Everton offered season ticket holders the opportunity to donate percentages of their refund to Everton In The Community, they made a fortune for the charity to be fair.
For 20-21, they have three dates at the end of October, January and May where they offer the same deal for matches played during that period. Everything is done online and takes two minutes.
Everton = great off the pitch/not so good on it. | | | |

Everton have done some great work in the community during lockdown, our fans have moaned about getting refunds and not financing a big company etc etc, Everton who as a club are unarguably a more corporate entity than Saints, dont seem to have that problem
Some season ticket holders have donated some money to charity but not in great numbers | |

It's a good thing for Football League club fans to do when their clubs are on their arse as they rely on money from tickets.
I'm sure you're not barking mad enough to be saying that PL fans should be doing the same despite their clubs getting over 80% of revenue from TV money?
For our fans it would be a bit silly asking them to chip in a few quid to a club that pissed away over £30m on player who stepped on the field 10 times and even in the middle of the pandemic spent around another £30m in transfer fees and wages on two players we have yet to see anything other than a few minutes from.

Smaller clubs have fans, Premier league clubs have customers. |  |

As mottos go that should be emblazoned on the Toffee’s crest (just below that cell block thingy) thus:

Thats not quite true, Liverpool/Everton/Chelsea/Arsenal & Spurs have the most active of supporters groups and battle the Premier League to instigate change | |

Change in their favour or change for the common good?
Why is the Salford club not on that list? | |

Im going to disagree with you there - plymouths fans are the lifeblood of the club and is what keeps it ticking over. The top clubs you mentioned there, would probably happily lose the fans that have been coming for 40 years and swap them with a day tripper that will spend money in the store. | |

I’ve been told by a Pompey ST holder I know that they paid something like £25 to book their season ticket and pay nothing further until fans are allowed back in - at which point the cost of each game they can attend will be deducted from their bank account. To be fair to them, if I’ve got that correct I think that’s quite a good and sensible way of dealing with it. |  |

I agree, I think that’s a good way of doing it.
Their cashflow must be taking a bit of a jolt, mind..... | |

But how are they going to cope when the 125k people that paid £25 suddenly all expect a ticket to "the old girl"? I mean not all of them can make excuses about having syphilis, boycotting for some unknown reason, the weather being wrong or some other act of PASHHHOOOOON us scummers could never understand |  | | |

To be fair to Saints, I am more than happy (and maybe surprised) with the excellent way the club has dealt with this pandemic. I have received all my refunds, well in time plus the 30 pounds voucher. I know a ST holder who didn't receive their voucher, so as a gesture, the club gave him 5 pounds more and he reveived a 35 pounds voucher. This is good, and makes people more likely to spend at the club (merchandise / St's) in future, if they feel valued. | |

Whilst content with the way the club are dealing with this, I would rather they retained the money on account against next season. |  | | |
