shurlock Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Finally bit the bullet yesterday and renewed my ST. Don't know what I has expecting to happen by waiting and seeing. Even now still in two minds. How about others?
Wes Tender Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Renewed our two a couple of days ago. Trusting that the football and lack of entertainment couldn't possibly be worse than last season.
ErwinK1961 Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Finally bit the bullet yesterday and renewed my ST. Don't know what I has expecting to happen by waiting and seeing. Even now still in two minds. How about others? Same as you, waited till close to deadline but not sure what I was hoping to have happened. Still don't know if its the right decision, but put my faith in the fact Mark Hughes wouldnt have taken the job if he wasnt given some sort of guarantee of squad improvement...

alehouseboys Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 We all beat our disgruntled gums for a bit but usually end up going back but I do think this year will see a big drop in ST numbers. A few wins and the past 2 seasons will quickly be forgotten. For a bit.
eurosaint Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Renewed our two a couple of days ago. Trusting that the football and lack of entertainment couldn't possibly be worse than last season. Snap !
simo Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Took a break last year but was pressured into renewing mine and the boys again this year , Been wondering if I've made a mistake ever since !
Shropshire Saint Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Renewed a few days ago. Never in doubt even if we had been relegated.
Pedro Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Three of us did and three didn't, have had tickets for donkeys years but they were fed up a couple of seasons ago with the direction of the club (mainly selling best players) and last year was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Give it to Ron Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 still undecided...I wanted some sign they had learnt their lesson....that was just a pipedream. Will probably renew always do. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

S-Clarke Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yeah, I renewed yesterday myself. I'm also still in two minds right now as to if it was the right decision. I usually renew quite quickly, but I left it as close to the last min this year in the faint hope that they'd give us some excitement/hope before the deadline, as there were simply no other incentives for ‘early renewal’. But anyway, I still renewed anyway. Not quite sure what I'll be getting for that money yet.
whelk Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Took a break last year but was pressured into renewing mine and the boys again this year , Been wondering if I've made a mistake ever since ! Going to football l is always better than not going to football

angelman Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Good lad. The final year? Yes, the final year. That is until it comes to renewal time next year, and then we'll see if next year will be the final year. You know how it is!!!
SFKA South Woodford Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Am not renewing mine but as i'm emmigrating to the other side of the world very soon, it was an easy decision to make. Although £800 to see Saints lift a cup at Wembley or the Premier League trophy at St Mary's would have made it worthwhile! :-)
The Cat Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Not yet because we're moving seats and there's no incentive to renew now. Will have more seats to choose from tomorrow once the unsold ones go on sale.
doddisalegend Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yep renewed a couple of days ago. Never in doubt that I would I just like to keep my money in my account for a long as possible. There is more to going to the football for me than just what's going on on the pitch so us being a bit ****e isn't a deal breaker for me.

SaintBobby Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Renewed x 4. I'm afraid I'm a sitting duck for the club. If we'd been relegated and they'd doubled the price, I'd still have renewed. I'm that much of a mug/addict.
Sergei Gotsmanov Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 I am a veteran of the years of struggle in the 90's and so appreciate that you have bad seasons and have renewed all my tickets. I think we will have a better season next season but some things do worry me; 1 The fact that as soon as the renewal date closes we hear that one of the few real entertainers is to leave. 2 The way that loanee players were treated. The fact that Matt Targett was not spoken to when he was having a great run at Fulham. That hardly breeds loyalty 3 The aspirations of our new owner.
Raging Bull Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 No. After 12 years mines gone, went to just 12 games over the last 2 years which made it too expensive. Gonna miss it however we’re playing.
Lighthouse Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Not had a ST since the Championship season due to work and financial commitments. Thought about getting one again this year but nothing I've seen yet makes me want to part with my hard earned. I'll need more than selling our best player, a failed bid for a Championship midfielder and the man who got sacked by Stoke, in order to part with £700
whiteleySaint30 Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Not a chance until transfer dealing are finalised

Jackie@home Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Renewed for our 30th season. Blame Nick Holmes, he said we must go and watch that lad Le Tissier, he’s brilliant. Addicted ever since. Surely it can’t be any worse than that dreary season just gone. Not feeling too optimistic with our Chinese owners though.
S-Clarke Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Surely it can’t be any worse than that dreary season just gone. Not feeling too optimistic with our Chinese owners though. TBF i said exactly the same last season, but somehow we managed to be 10x worse. It was all VVD's fault though, apparently.
Lets B Avenue Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 As always. What else are you going to do? Come on here and slag the team off when you haven't got a clue what's really going on in the game?
LGTL Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yes, as always. More to guarantee all the away tickets though, to be honest. I'm generally so-so about home games these days.
Kingsland Red Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Of course, two STs in same seats since the move to St Marys

There wasn't any early payment discount and you weren't in any danger of losing your seat.
SW5 SAINT Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 We all beat our disgruntled gums for a bit but usually end up going back but I do think this year will see a big drop in ST numbers. A few wins and the past 2 seasons will quickly be forgotten. For a bit. That looks like that guy in Coronation St or is it Emmerdale...........?
wild-saint Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 yes x 2. Noticeable absence of the usual trolls on here?
ladysaint Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yes done mine but first season ever I am not remotely excited about the start of the season hope my enthusiasm picks up soon.
Toadhall Saint Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yes done mine but first season ever I am not remotely excited about the start of the season hope my enthusiasm picks up soon. It will do - avoid this place with all the doom and gloom and you’ll be 75% of the way there. [emoji3]
Pip Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Waiting until the last second so that it will give me another month until it comes on the credit card bill but not too pleased to get a text at 6.20 this morning from the club reminding me to renew....
John D Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 All 7 of us have renewed - never in doubt really although lack of transfer activity is disappointing. But then I remember watching Paul Moody and Frankie Bennett up front so it's all relative

But then I remember watching Paul Moody and Frankie Bennett up front so it's all relative Don’t get me wrong it’s not just the quality of football that’s a turn-off; more than anything it’s the way the PL and football in general are going -and I’m far from your average “Against Modern Football” type. In many respects what’s happening with saints is a microcosm of these wider trends. Edited 22 June, 2018 by shurlock

Graffito Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Not filled with enthusiasm but I’ll renew before midnight. What would I do otherwise, push a trolley around Sainsbury’s with Mrs G.
ChiefScummer Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 I live abroad so no chance but my dad renewed and so did my uncle and 2 cousins. I miss going to football with that crafty lot.

doddisalegend Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yes done mine but first season ever I am not remotely excited about the start of the season hope my enthusiasm picks up soon. I think this coming season will be better than last so I'm looking forward to it. Hughes isn't really my cup of tea but unlike MoPe at least he can get the basics right. The squad isn't great (certainly not good enough to be pushing Everton or Leicester for best of the rest next season) but again I think Hughes will get more out of it than MoPe……and who knows maybe Austin will manage to stay fit for a whole season and score a bucket load
StDunko Posted 22 June, 2018 Posted 22 June, 2018 Yep renewed 2 days ago, as did my old man. Speculated that it can't be less entertaining than the last two seasons!
