Cost neutral for me. I ain’t paying to watch that shite

There's no reason for that 100k to be taken out of the wages budget.

If it has to be then the concept of us signing players on anything other than £500 per week is gone. 

I'm with you Mick: wasnt too bothered before but having compensated Brentford, a gesture in our direction would be appreciated.

I see we have agreed to compensate Brentford fans that had bought travel and tickets for our cancelled game last season.

what about season ticket holders who had paid for that game ?
 

doncaster for free at home this season instead.?

I'm not bothered about Brentford or any sort of recompense, that was under KAs watch#

that said

I won't be going to Doncaster if I have to pay, or if it's raining

So they've sorted out Forest Green & the swampy twat Dale Vince.

Now they've sorted out Brentford fans?

All good PR I suppose & definitely didn't have too. 

Let's see what they do for us! Just a bit odd to sort out others before your own?

spot on.

the 100k will leave a gap somewhere

its more likely to impact wages than the electric bill

id rather we kept the money in the club than giving 12 quid to moaning fcukers

Totally agree

 

Anyhow wasnt the Brentford game the "free" game for season ticket holders??

I agree with you on the fact I’m not interested in any type of refund.

Dont you often quote how real match day revenue is around £6 or £7 quid. 
 

Surely can’t have it both ways?

But we ain’t ‘giving’ anything to anybody. Moaning fuckers or not. 

Legally the club would just be fulfilling a contract. 

I paid to watch n games. I got n-1 games.

Wasn't expecting anything back for Brentford; nor bothered- it was Ken's doing.

Now that fv have made the gesture though, a bit of something wouldn't go amiss.

As for wages; they're already dramatically lower than they would have been and will continue to be so. If we can't manage, why pay off other clubs?

It's been discussed elsewhere that while the club is hampered massively on transfer fees and wages, money must surely become available to invest in other areas.

If not, we're fucked.

Legally you paid for a season of games, you got a season of games, it just happened to be 22 rather than 23 games.

(Just like every other club in our division after the demise of Bury - not sure how many, if any, have refunded their fans).

 

If you want to feel better, yours (and mine) money from the Brentford game was offset by those who cancelled their DD, getting the Villa game whilst not paying for it.

However, I wouldn't be surprised if those shouting loudest for refunds were not the same ones who cancelled their DD.
