I'm in a real dilemma. I always have a season ticket but won't pay £290 so early bird is the only option. That leaves until the end of the month. Really not sure as we have no idea what players will be there plus I'm really not keen on the new manager. The thought of watching a midfield anything like Powell, Muldoon and Taylor fills me with dread. Oh what to do???

Absolutely will be getting a Season ticket. New beginnings, have a feeling that the upcoming season is going to be a title winning season. Who wouldn't want to be part of that?

Already ordered mine as I think we should give HH/JS2 the chance to show what they can do.

The only way to get a seat, so no brainer for me.
Why people get standing STs has always puzzled me though. Good, if you want to give the club the money upfront, but if you're just saving a few quid, is it really worth it? Chances are most of us miss the odd game during a season anyway work, holiday, illness, etc.

I had exactly the same thoughts as you are having, but when you put your logical head on like I did you realise you are a supporter of the club not the players, so buy the ST. because I,m sure the club wont have the same players as next season. We might not win the league next year but we can never be worse than we were this year. So get on that phone an order the early bird.

Maybe it goes back to the good old terracing days I,m not sure but thats why I dont bother with a seat at the games. Tolerate having to sit at some away games.

No question. The club needs our support more than ever. A crap season yes but, as our best ever manager used to say, it was one of them.
I am still Maidstone United through and through and will buy my season ticket next week.
The club IS the fans... we've had shite seasons many many times before.

I've bought a season ticket every year since 2002 (not quite true, as that first ticket covered nine seasons)because the club need our help, even though I miss a quarter or more of the home matches due to my interminable holidays. And ground only, so I can change ends at half time - though I don't do that either if the Genco Stand looks full.

I will be getting one but I'll try and win the free one out of the NLP first before splashing out. I will miss the early bird deal but it's only another 25 notes.

I think the club will be lucky this season in regards that sales for ST will not appear to be dropping for next year, however what will worry me is that if we fail again next year like we have this year then many fans will reconsider tolerating another year of misery.

No issues for me I am purchasing a season ticket again, along with 4 mates who go along to matches The bad news is that 2 other mates are not renewing due to dire performances that have seen no improvement under this management team. I'm guessing that sales will take a bit of a hit.
