    Basically a club run well, structured with an excellent recruitment policy.

    This season the ST holders have been given a pass code for all home games on Ifollow.

    My mate just renewed his ST for £185 irrespective of what league they end up in.’


    I had thought that all clubs have access to ifollow games to season ticket holders. Is this not the case?

    Wednesday fans have to pay for ifollow and whatever they have spent on games during the season gets knocked off next seasons season ticket price. Isn’t that kind

    I believe, a couple of seasons ago, they were so desperate for income that they were selling 3, 5 and even 10 year season tickets. So that cash has been and gone. They have a glut of players with no sell on value and a stadium, if you can call it that, in huge negative equity.
    Worrying times for their fans.

    That’s right mate they did - i thought at the time that looked incredibly short term and it’s quite dangerous too - who would buy the club when a load of the future income has gone

    I think they’re screwed long term

    which is obviously fairly amusing

    The only sad part, for me, is that the first fixtures I look for, when the fixtures are released are first match, last match, Wednesday home, Wednesday away. I have a bad feeling they are declining into oblivion though.

    Nope, clubs choice whether you get an ifollow code or not. I've got family who support Wednesday, they renewed their season ticket this year and have literally got nothing to show for it. I don't even think it was discounted or anything. That's why there's so many of them trying to get a refund again.

    And following taking out a loan secured on the ground don't they have a payment of c£6.5m due around September time, which if not paid, could see them lose it? I'm sure I read that somewhere recently. I suspect their problems are going to get much worse before things start to improve.

    Gotta love Chansiri, let's hope the offspring of the Wombwell/Hoyland/Chapeltown/Penistone/Stocksbridge Pigs decide to follow us rather than that ***** if they're down in the doldrums for years.
