Of course I have, I had to go back 5 pages to pull out your "troll" post because I thought it was indicative of your actual thoughts on the relevance of the "facts" you are citing, supposedly to support your "debate".
Without going around the houses and in plain speak terms, I think you're having a bitch about nothing just for something to do, you have no facts of any relevance and are digging a deeper hole just for arguments sake.
Whilst I wouldn't out that as trolling on a grand scale, heck, this entire board is full of that and much worse, I'm just exceptionally bored with the constant faux outrage Wakey bitch-a-thon, backed up with FA, yet laced with insults directed at either the club, its players or staff.

| OP: "A 3 month payment plan is too expensive for lots of fans."
Replies: "There's a 6 month payment plan to spread the cost."
End of thread.
But no - the dynamic paperclip salesman has a whole range of additional criticisms of the business model, based on assumptions that we should a) see a club in Melbourne, Australia as our direct competitor b) seek £millions in state funding and c) reduce our ticket prices to match Huddersfield, despite the fact that policy has had no appreciable impact on their attendance figures.
It's a crazy world.

I'd add state funding from a country we are not in, I imagine that should we ever actually leave Europe said poster will be demanding we seek EU grants.

| Back to season tickets.
How are we doing with sales of S/T's for next season ?
With the deadline having been brought forward for early bird platinum sales, you would hope that sales have been going well and it would be great if there has been an increase on last season.
Also, what about kids and regular S/T sales ?

Indeed.
I don't buy one any more. Instead, despite the saving I could make with a ST, I pay to walk up - and I attend most home games, usually with a +1, because my eldest has rediscovered his love of WT, so we go together - at my expense.
I like to think that compensates for my lack of merch purchases, because I'm not a replica shirt kinda guy.

Replica shirts, now there's a whole new can of worms.
It is sacrilege to throw replica shirts away but, what are you supposed to do with them ?

| Personally, I don't tend to wear the replica shirts at any other time, than match days.
However, I do possess leisure wear. such as tee shirts and polo's etc, and tend to take these on holiday, usually for flight or maybe if we happen to be playing and its televised etc.

I already do but, having watched / suffered Trinity for so long, I have too many to get through and Ryanair baggage allowance would mean leaving most of them at home
I probably have 25/30 replica shirts but, would never get rid.

| I tend to keep mine so long, then every so often have a little clear out.
One of my ex locals in Bugibba, Malta, displays rugby league shirts in his bar, and usually if I'm having a clear out, tend to send them onto him.

Ditto, only one I really wear is the old cloth retro shirt that we did in about 2004, forget which year it was based on but I have a feeling it was either 63 cc or 67 champ final. Someone help me out.

| I tend to put mine in one of those plastic bags that you can connect your vacuum cleaner pipe to. It shrinks the pile of shirts to about a third of the "bulk" volume. Then put them in a drawer. I tend to leave my most recent and second recent out for leisure wearing and holidays. I consider it heinous a crime to get rid them!!
I recall getting my first replica shirt when in the second year at Snapethorpe school circa 1960 and wearing it for games much to the envy of my mates. It was the classic sixties design similar to the 2018 season.

I think everyone at Snapey turned up for PE (rugby) in the classic Wakey white with red and blue hoop back in the day All apart from a lad called Steve Booth whose dad was Jack Booth I believe and had a unique blue Trin shirt with red hoop. Steve was a massive lad who went on to play for Dewsbury so it may well have been an adults players shirt.

Probably. I just remember the P.E. teacher asking him if he got the jersey from his dad. Don't think JB was still playing at that time but maybe still involved at the club.

That Steve Booth you mentioned if it's the same family as you and redders mentioned had an older brother Alan I believe his name was played in the all conquering trinity u19's of 1965 and along with Hawley, Cooper, Godfrey, and all the rest got signed on pro with a number of clubs.

You're quite right wayne. Alan was in my year at school and was a natural rugby player then. His dad, Jack (John), was a Trinity player from 1946-1956 (Heritage No.557). He was the Trinity baggage man for many years after that.
