[quote user="Paul Cluckbert "][quote user="morty"]My three total £705.

Ouch!!!!
[/quote]

Bloody ridiculous.

What was once the working man''s game is now patronised by luvvies and fools. Bring back the casual supporters and make the club find more inventive ways of raising money other than by bleeding it''s ''audience''.

It will all eventually collapse around the ears of those who led football down this road... and those who have allowed themselves to be mugged by it.

You mean that lot who don''t even stay to the end of the game?

Of course it is! I will be forever grateful to my late father for first taking me to Carrow Road when I was eight years old. The memories of Ron Davies and others will never leave me. Those early experiences were fundamental in creating a love affair with the game that has been a major part of my life.

The mind boggles how things get bounced off topic what the hell has my Season ticket got to do with the Big Society, and I might point out that it is sometimes cheaper to have a holiday abroad than a caravan on the Yarmouth front, I never have holidays in the UK anymore

[nutty nigel 7,534]

This is the Pink Un Messageboard at it''s finest. Not only do posters know best about how you should support the club and when you should withdraw that support but now, because the teams doing well, we can all learn how we should spend our money and how we should bring our children up.

 

At least I now feel better about those family holidays camping at Costessey Pits.

Go on, admit it. You feel enriched by reading it all.

They dont give you much time to react......letter dated 8/2/11......received 15/2/11 and you have to react by the 22/2/11 (if I remember correctly) should you have an issue.

From Costessey Pits to Dunston Common, I feel enriched by every happy clappy family club moment I spent..

 

There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I''ve loved them all

got mine through too, lol was hoping they wasn''t going to realised that i turned 21 :( they didn''t £35 instead of £15 a month dam it lol. but i get a grown up yellow card now haha

Love it when people tell me how to spend my money. Where were they when I was earning it? Did they offer their help then? Nooooooooooooo.

Big Society, what it''s about is paying more for less. Inflation up, direct taxes, up, services down. Politicians are good like that, remember care in the community? Remember who took that big society away? When we all left our doors unlocked, when the milkman used to keep an eye on people taking in their milk, how the postie used to know your name. When families looked after their elderly. When the Govt. didn''t steal all your belongings when your gran needed care? Remember when you were a kid and you chucked your sweet wrapper on the pavement and an adult would ask you to pick it up without you giving them a gobfull of abuse, or worse still - their parents wouldn''t? Well David Cameron wants us to do all that again because he''s going to spend all our money on other things like fat bankers bonuses and bailing them all out when they have a tough year.

Anyway, it''s something like that.

Meanwhile, while I''ve still got it I''ll spend my money on me and my family, on what I want not what some banker tells me I should,

That assumes that people notice the deadline.

That assumes that people aren''t away from base for that short time period.

That assumes that people are not already so busy that they dont have the time to go and make the visit to the Ticket Office to discuss the issue. Dont forget the season ticket renewal first deadline was early March (if I remember correctly) according to the earlier information......

Remember when Bill Punton use to zoom down the wing at speed or THE COUNT! Would score another goal. 

Remember when the half time scores use to be put on the River End scoreboard or the scoreboard just in front of the Barclay on the Main stand side.

Remember how the green cushions use to fly from the Main Stand to show the fans appreciation of the ref!  Then there was the slow handclap and the stomping of the feet on the wooden floor boards of the Main Stand.  Good ol'' B Blockers!

I renewed my season ticket at the very first deadline to beat the VAT and have paid for it all etc etc, I presume I am not supposed to be recieving one of these letters then?
