Vicious circle - wake up!

There's been no end of excuses on here why many aren't going to renew their ST, most of which boil down to so called fans basically only wanting to watch us when we are competing at the top of the league.

If the figures ares to be believed we've sold approx 1,000 with a couple of weeks to go. This would mark a significant drop in revenue to the Club which means they have to react. Players will have to be sold / loaned out, which may explain why Connolly has gone. This then leads to more whinging and more excuses not to renew. And so the vicious circle continues.

How fans expect us to keep a competitive squad together when they aren't prepared to support the Club is beyond me. Or should Tan simply continue to plough in millions only to be reviled by many?

Our fans need a huge realty check.

"They only come when we're winning. Come when we're winning. They only come when we're winning

I take your point but Im not sure ST sales contribute that much to a clubs finances (I am renewing BTW)

St sales are worth £6m to the club.
If they drop by half which is looking possible then that's £3m off the budget and that's 6 decent Championship players wages or 3 stars.

Also why should Tan subsidise us if we only turn up when we are successful.

It's not that we are going down, we've still got a reasonable squad who are starting to improve as well.

God help us if we go the way of Coventry, Blackpool or Pompey

I've been going since 1967 so I'm no good time Charlie. Yet apathy has set in this season which I think is understandable. A couple of days ago on the very same day I received a renewal form saying we're all in this together, a first team player is farmed out and I'm told I may lose 15 hrs a week at work. Is it worth 40 quid a month? What would you do?

Can spend that on one nights drinking! I spend more than that just to get to games in month!! I will be there next season, OP is correct complain about cost cutting ect but fans are contributing to it by their lame excuses for not renuing.

The exscuses are getting laughable now ,let's face it there s a hard-core of fans the rest are justs fair weather fans and glory hunters ,had more season ticket holders when risdale was here and he did scam us

They do in the championship especially if you haven't been promoted and relegated from the premier and in receipt of parachute payements.
The running costs of cardiff were around £1 million a month before we got promoted to the premier so season ticket sales are vital.

How about the club providing some good football to entice the fans - apart from the odd season, we've been shit for years, and this season is probably the worst since the late 80's....if you can't sell seats, the management should be asking why.

Hard core can mean different things - some people come away from these games convinced we're a good team.

according to some on here, if you expect a football club to provide good football you are not a hardcore fan

Price to high. 200 to 250 plenty.

I'm not renewing and fully behind the cut backs
