AyewJoking Posted 12 May 2008 Posted 12 May 2008 That's going to make the ST look cheap, mate.I'll be buying mine in the next week or so, I reckon. The fact we're in League One makes not a jot of difference to me - I'll keep going whatever. That's probably why I didn't get THAT upset about getting relegated. I'm what the club needs - apathetic but still willing to hand over the cash We're at that early stage where we still enjoy eachothers company .

No more so than now. Time to just say no!
C.J Posted 12 May 2008 Posted 12 May 2008 When I renewed mine on Saturday, the bloke said they'd had 600 renew so far. Also alot of new season tickets were bought which is good.
brookfox Posted 12 May 2008 Posted 12 May 2008 I'll be renewing before the end of May, basically just to force me to keep going down! There's not enough attractive enough games to pick and choose and if I don't get an ST I can guarantee I'll find another excuse to miss it. Essentially I'm buying my loyalty from the club!
Ultra Posted 12 May 2008 Posted 12 May 2008 You can find plenty of other things to do with your time and money on Saturdays or Tuesday nights. This club is not the Mormons. You're not compelled to spend so much of your income on it.

You're not compelled to spend so much of your income on it. I know other people have more things to pay out, I still live at home, have nothing to pay for barr my car/clothes/spending on myself, e.t.c, and I know some people probably have less paid jobs/no job (Although i'm a on shit wage, The only reason its looks reasonable is because I work all day, everyday) but it's not that much of my income, Less than a months wages? (Less than a quarter) And i'm not really sure their is that many more things you can do on Saturday afternoons, just from a few threads on here (On the first weekend without football - Well Leicester not playing) you can see how much people miss it and that's just during the summer, don't get me wrong we get by and i'm sure in time we would find things to do but your life certainly does seem slightly emptier and you do miss it.
AyewJoking Posted 13 May 2008 Posted 13 May 2008 It had become a bit boring. I want the nervous/excited buzz and lorryload of naiveity that I used to get when I was younger.
purpleronnie Posted 13 May 2008 Posted 13 May 2008 If people are buying ST why not all stick together and maybe the walkers bowl might have some atmosphere.
The People's Hero Posted 13 May 2008 Posted 13 May 2008 This club is not the Mormons. So how do you explain Ian Mormondroyd?
renards Posted 13 May 2008 Posted 13 May 2008 I think the topic was about buying season tickets. Necessary?
renards Posted 13 May 2008 Posted 13 May 2008 Renew with the Jester in charge ..I don't think so. Its hurting like hell reflecting on all my previous years 35+, Its not being in Div 3, that idiot has got to go. I sense many of the pro Holloway or fans who will support the team no matter what have fairly shallow lifes and great disposible incomes. Life is too short i'm afraid, I can't bear to hear the crap he comes out with let alone pay his wages. He talks total bollox in the media and obviously at half time. Always remember a couple of fans shoving each other' handbags' because one was having a go at the team (under Pleat) the other fellas response was 'your'd cheer a TURD if had a blue shirt on' ??!! Well, we now have one in a tracksuit and i'm not cheering.

Well, we now have one in a tracksuit and i'm not cheering. So I ask the question which no-one seems to have answered or took any notice of, IF/When and should Holloway do well in League One, Get us promoted, Do well in the championship would you then get a ST? Would you come crawling back. It can go two ways, I can't predict the future, It can carry on like it has and Holloway will fail and eventually get the chop or it could turn out he's successful, that is obvious. I'm not for one second comparing this to the start of the O'Neill era and i'm sick and tired when a new manager comes in he immediately gets the tag "The new Martin O'Neill", We live and look back to that era way to much but we're you one of the fans calling for O'Neill's head? 9 Month's later saying he was the best thing since sliced bread? I hope Ollie does well, obviously because i'm a Leicester fan and if Ollie's doing well in theory it would mean Leicester are doing well, but I also want Ollie to do well to see fans like you coming back with your head between your tail, crawling back, eating your words. I have said many times about the players which I have slagged off time and time again "I hope they prove me wrong...I'd be more than happy if they did", I'm sure your the same about Ollie because as I said before if Ollie's doing well in theory Leicester will be doing well, but if I were you and hadn't bought a ST because "Ollie hadn't been sacked" and was proved wrong I'd certainly be abit embarrassed coming crawling back.

If we look back at the MON era too much...don't mention it!!!!! I was at the Shef Utd game as I been for most, Andy Lockhead and beyond. The fans reaction on that day was on the back of two managers who had just shat on us, MON start was hardly good, the Shef U game was diabolical ( I can still see Walsh huffing the ball into row Z whilst in their area) MON being in the 'modest' vein aka Cloughie was wounded by the fans reaction, Leicester City took off after that game! Move on to 2008, Holloway does nothing to indicate he has any clue, fairly obvious he hasn't. slags off the fans, slags off the players , 'car crash manager' Yet we still have morons singing his name, the team yes, but what did he do for the adulation? I may be proved wrong next season, but at the moment I have been proved right.I didn't want him in the first place, he's was a small time player and manager with no pedigree. I will not crawl back with my 'head between my tail'? Their are some big name supporters feeling the same as me, the club need the corperate money

The team, These players deserve adulation? Ok Ollie made some bad decisions he ain't been brilliant so far but Ollie can only do so much, these players certainly don't deserve adulation...Under 3 (4) managers these players have done the same job...Next to nothing. As I said Ollie has made some bad decisions, slagged players right down to the fans off, a media whore, bought some bad players (Which on paper looked good - I didn't see to many people complaining when they signed) and all those things do influence the game but at the end of the day Ollie can only do some much and under different managers these players have been exactly the same...People have short memories ah?

By team, I mean 'Leicester City' not indivduals. Fans getting behind the 'team' usually lifts them..Yes? Why sing for a Joker who even the players ignore.? I think your in denial? Wanting Holloway to do well so people like me crawl back is bizarre. Your feelings for him are not healthy, your've picked out more of his faults than i have, yet you still think i should be 'committed' I will not buy a season ticket which wiil/ does hurt it's the only way I can have a 'vote' hopefully the message will eventually get through. I cannot subscribe to this blind attitude. Give somebody else a chance to prove themself, not reward a failure. When, not if it happens i will resume my 'Leicester till i die' commitment
GloverFox Posted 14 May 2008 Posted 14 May 2008 I've renewed, also got my girlfriends son to buy his first one ****it, it's not like a fu cking lightswitch that I can fooking turn on and off. It's Leicester City F.C. I'm here for the bumpy ride. Bring the ****er on is what I say! I'm embracing the new season, the new Leicester City F.C. When You're smiling..... ... totally agree Mickey, rough and the smooth whatever ... bring it on! ...... as for the posts reckoning we'll walk League 1? Your having a laugh, some of those teams have learnt the hard way how to play the game within the confines of their budget and get every scrap of effort and talent out of their players .... hell clubs like Crewe with Gradi (okay so the guys not at the helm anymore) have made a good living out of their youth program and play some good and exciting football! ... We (... the Club) have the greatest of chances now to actually 'build a squad' rather than buying one, start playing stylish and attacking football and clean off the stains and memories of the last few years of sub-standard football .... but that does mean 'supporting' the club with buying into it with ST's. But the board must take the responsible path, use the money available wisely, provide the management team with some stability and build a 'base of strength' from which we can expand and play from .... and to answer the questions on League 1 game costs ... yes, most of 'em charge between £18 and £24 ... and believe it or not the perception that those clubs have small town, low dedication followings is total delusion .... their fans pay their £20 a game knowing they'll be entertained with effort and a game (... when last season were we truly entertained in the knowledge that we could do it agian next week, and the week after!?) .... that's it RANT over with, blood pressure to return to normal !!! ...... come on City ! ... make us proud again
Jimmy Posted 14 May 2008 Posted 14 May 2008 I intend to renew a week on Saturday, so long as I get a full week of work this week and next week
Matt Posted 15 May 2008 Author Posted 15 May 2008 I like the way on the OS they have announced Season Tickets are "selling well", yet they don't quote facts and figures, Anyone think this is just a ploy to remind people? Similar to their regular announcement of "Buy tickets now...We're heading towards a Sell Out" - In reality we the attendance is 25,000
ASH17LCFC Posted 15 May 2008 Posted 15 May 2008 They haven't even sold more 2000 and i know that for a fact.

Raj Posted 16 May 2008 Posted 16 May 2008 I'll be renwaing mine by the ned of May. Just in case people were witing for my decision!!!
