Shadow Play Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Just in case anyone hasn’t thought of this: You can apply for and then pay for your season ticket using a 0% credit card. NatWest are doing a card with 23 months interest free credit. If you think your credit score is perhaps not so good Virgin money are doing a card with 12 months interest free credit. If you are disciplined and don’t get carried away with your spending 0% credit cards can be a great way of spreading the cost of any relatively expensive purchase. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I suppose it saves forcing yourself going to the last 8 games when we are already down! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Just now, Daydream said: Mr Negative we’re in the early season optimism phase mate Just getting in before the wise guys. I am actually quite optimistic about this season (depending on our Mexican brothers). I think Doc has assembled quite a sensible squad; Brought in another keeper, We have 2 decent looking full backs in Frenchy and Beck, An experienced CH in Shaughnessy and a beast in Portales with McGhee and Ashcroft as back up, Quick wingers with decent shot/cross potential in Tiffoney and McCowan, A central midfield group with Mulligan, Cameron, Boateng, Anderson, Robertson, and Byrne to choose from. Robinson, Pineda and Marmite Rudden. That's a not too bad squad if the Mexicans work out. Probably do with another wide option and another striker, possibly someone with an older head too. But yeah I'm optimistic, like this club makes me every season.....the c***s! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a great idea and a great post. I hadn’t thought of that and might just do it! Cheers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pens_Dark Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 I said in the league predictor thread that I think we will surprise people this season. Our recruitment seems to be targeted to areas we needed new faces. I still think we are maybe 2 or 3 signings away from being prepared for the season but I'm sure that will come. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lifelongdee Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 i mentioned this year ago to a few people that the should start a payment scheme from mid season (january) to say may or june were if fans are stuggling with paying for season tickets the would have a couple off month to save some cash so it was easier for fan when it came to purchasing there families seaason tickets. i suppose it doesnt need to be the actual club that could do this i dunni if the supporters clubs would be interested in doing something along they lines. Another thing i would like to see is quarterly season tickets, 20 homes games a season 1 quarterly tickets gets you into the next 5 home games 90 to 100 quid each say most of you will probably laugh at these ideas but its just a thought 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There needs to be inventive ways to attract more fans going forward though because costs are getting ridiculous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam899 Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Two interviews on Dee TV, including a press conference from today with our new Mexican amigos and Docherty. Docherty singing their praises after their first training session. Hopes for them to be involved tomorrow but awaiting clearance from Mexico. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said earlier in the thread that I wasn't happy about re-signing most of our defence from the last time we were in this league. We didn't re-sign Sweeney which I was happy about (the DABS should have come in for him) but we are still stuck for the most part with guys that we know have weaknesses so you can imagine that every club we play against also knows. Just hope the #dosamigos are shit hot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A back 4 of French, Portales, Shaughnessey and Beck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
