Why the hell is a club that struggles to sell tickets for various reasons have stupid stupid systems that clearly put fans off.This club really shocks me at times with these pathetic membership scheme's:rant:

Does dick and co actually understand what they are doing,im not goner rejoin as the ams was for life.These systems should be for premiership clubs not a league 1 club grrrrrrrrrr.

absolute joke or what:nono:
The ams really pissed me off,now this system is even worse ha ha,such a joke:nono:

i know where your coming from, i spent a few bob last season in the club shop, but its the fan who give vocal support and follow the team who deserve priority because they are giving up time and money

espeically away games, they have travel fares on top of ticket prices

It is somewhat futile when a mate was not allowed to buy a Gillingham ticket from the club shop as AMS was not renewed yet he paid on the gate instead.

There is a need for it but sense needs to prevail - also I thought you originally joined AMS for life so why has someone not challenged the renewal part through trading standards ?

I also joined the AMS in the mistaken impression that it was for life, I have now reached the stage where I really cannot be arsed anymore, if I can't pay on the gate at an away game then I will probably find something else to do with my time...I doubt if I am alone.

Although I agree with most of this the whole reason this new scheme has come about is people like Beach Hut moaning when he didn't get a west ham tickets......

More than 400 fans paid on the door yesterday, thus rendering the membership scheme pointless. I am a Gold member , but yesterday wanted to take two friends who are not Albion fans, thus just paid on the door.

Also had a kindly turnstile operator who 'forgot' to add on the extra £3 for pay on the day.

It's £10. :thud:
Well done for realising that,i could afford £100 or a £1000 but its the principle that matters.Fans in realistic terms have been duped yet again by the clubs money making scheme's.

The truth is the club will actually lose money:rolleyes:

I have an idea-why don't you just go and support a club you'll be happy with? Clearly everything about the Albion pisses you off so why bother?

We won't miss your particular brand of support-honest!

Why don't you just shut you're big fat mouth twat:tosser:

If thats you're view then this club certainly won't survive,try to respect other peoples opinions idiot.Yes this club is very annoying due to some pathetic things they do to annoy supporters.

You state we won't miss your particular support,well who's we or is that you?
The club will miss my sort of support,because supporting the club for 20 years and spending shite loads is f***-ing good support,so f*** right off you little shite head.:tosser::tosser:

I went so bollocks and yes as I said but you fail to read it is not being applied sensibly that is the problem
 


Yes, it's a f***ing DISGRACE that the club has money-making schemes, especially when all it can do at the moment is lose money.

Not the point. The AMS was introduced after Chesterfield in 2001 for a one-off, £10.00 fee that bought you membership for life. The club have now gone back on that. I'm only surprised there's not been more of a backlash over it (maybe there would have been if the team were performing and more wanted to get to the away games).

By all means knock 'sir albion' for some of his more questionable views, and the way he presents them, but in this instance he's got a valid point which should be challenged with the club.
