So you've bought your season ticket and secured your seat, but what happens if any of the following happen:

You have a child who then wants to go to games, where will they seat?

You struggle to afford the seat so want a cheaper one somewhere else but none are available.

The bloke next to you at AMEX is a complete fatty and you want to move, where can you or he be moved to?

I'm sure there are plenty of others to which I think the answer will be you're buggered! Until the extra seats come in but then I can see a season ticket waiting list already forming for those.

What do other clubs with this level of support do?

It's great unless you fall into any of these categories. The biggest problem I think is the dad and new child scenario. In a few years we will have killed this off possibly.

I imagine there will be a waiting list that you can put your name on if what you want is not available

After that quote - I hope I am sat next to you. I'll make your life hell for the next 5 seasons, and will love every minute.

They've said that, if you want to take your child, you'll need to get in touch with the club when general tickets go on sale. They'll then swap your ST seat with a seat in the general seating area (at the North end of WSL) along with an additional payable seat for your child. They'll then sell your ST seat on general sale.

Maybe we can ask Tony if they can only sell every other seat, Just in case. :wozza:

Highly unlikely - I'd expect at least 9 months warning of this eventuality

You struggle to afford the seat so want a cheaper one somewhere else but none are available.

I used bank of mum and dad to pay for mine and am paying them back in monthly instalments.

The bloke next to you at AMEX is a complete fatty and you want to move, where can you or he be moved to?

I'm sitting next to my brother and I already know he's a bit of a fatty :laugh::laugh::laugh:.

There will always be a fairly significant number of non-renewals every year for various reasons (regardless of how we are doing): moving away, death, illness, loss of job etc.

I'd imagine, and certainly hope, that existing season ticket holders will be allowed to move to those seats that become available due to non-renewal prior to them being made available to those on a waiting list.

There will always be some people in the family stand whose children reach adulthood each season, so it would seem a bit harsh not allow them to relocate, and not allow them to renew their existing seats either.

I wanted seats further back than row G and there were some but they were "reserved" so I asked if there were a waiting list for better seats and was told "good idea" we'll make one of them. I can't say I'm overly confident!

Also with the monthly payment turnover will not be limited to end of season ... you'll see it throughout, especially people that simply give up paying .. I'm not on the DD deal but assume if you miss one payment you're pass is locked out and they re-sell it, is that right?
