If you don't like it then DON'T RENEW. You're not doing the club a favour by having a season ticket. To reiterate what NMH said, you pay for your seat because you want to watch football, do it for anyother reason is just stupidBeach Hut said:

AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH I can't believe this is here again. Balance sheet here is not really the point, it does mean that the money is in before the end of the financial year, probably for a number of accounting reasons. STH are important to the club, but as the starter of this thread said, so are non-STH. I agree with all the posters who have pointed out that STH get the benefit of discount on a match by match basis, and if you are going to go to all the home games then this is more than worth it, if not then people make a call as to whether they can afford it.
My question to STH who are 'saving the club' every year, if the price of a ST was equivalent to paying on a match by match basis with no seat position guaranteed, would you buy a ST? If not the you have just seen th benefit you recieve from buying a season ticket.

Jeesus. I said it's up to you, and when the club ask for payment is up to them. You do pay early for your seat. You do.
The reason the club has has no bearing on your reasoning, you do it when they ask, to make sure you get the seat.
The reason for the club, is their business, and you are probably quite right is surmising THEIR reason for what THEY do.
YOU pay EARLY TO MAKE SURE YOU GET A SEAT. bottom line for you.

Just out of interest, how many send out ST renewals in March, and offer a discount?
As far as your comments about WHU go, here are the broad stats
There are approximately 4,000 STH. Let us say that 80% of them applied for a ticket. Therefore you had a 2500/3200 = 78% chance of a ticket
There are about 11,000 AMS members, according to the Insider, the club stopped counting when 10,000 applications were received in total, so let us say that 7,500 AMS members applied for tickets.
They therefore had a 2,500/7,500 = 33% chance of a successful application.
Some AMS members have been to lots of matches, some have been to one or two, but when you join AMS (just like when you sign up for a ST) THOSE ARE THE RULES, so we accept them.
A STH therefore was 2.36 times more likely to be successful than an AMS member.
YOU stated you would be quite happy for the Albion to only receive 1,000 tickets for Upton Park, PROVIDED that they all went to STH.
This would have meant that only 1,000/3,200 = 31% of STH would have been successful.
Your views are based on spite and envy at other people getting a ticket, and that is why you have provoked such a reaction, very disappointing from a son of a vicar.

Oh El Pres you are so patronising that you try to make cheap points about my parents now.
I am the voice of reason for STHs

Just cheap shots that are worthless and nothing to do with what we disagree on but to be expected from you.
Beach Hut said:
They are not cheap shots at all. I do find it disappointing that you would rather we only had 1,000 tickets for West Ham and they all went to STH's.
To me it is indicative of a person motivated by spite and envy, as this would seem to be the only reason why you would prefer a further 4,000 fans to not receive tickets.
I find your approach inconsistent with a Christian upbringing.

Exactly. Surely a proper fan would want 4000 there, whoever they are, as the club would get more money......
enigma said:
I guess me and Beachy are just not going to agree on this, I would certainly rather have 5,000 fans than 1,000 STH's at the match, because it would increase the chances of ALL fans to get a ticket.
Beachy however says he is the voice of reason, but he has not stated what his reason is for reducing the Albion contingent at West Ham by 80%.
