I do not want a teamcard Club Rovers at £60...I just want to buy my season pass and not be treat like a 2nd class supporter....
I do not buy computers, i do not shop online
I like to keep my money safe, i've earned it, it's all mine
I do not get this concept of a "discount" at a cost
We have to "buy the discount", excuse me, now i'm lost
I used to get a discount if I bought an early pass
But that discount now costs £60, you can kiss my *ss
But some may say i'll get some money off a Rovers rugby shirt
I used to get that aswell !! so it don't take away the hurt
I will not see the benefits of this new fandangled card
Unless I spend MORE money, but I can't cos times are hard
A lot of you think it's good, I won't argue with the masses
But I must say "look again", without your Rovers tinted glasses
Sphericals....love it
However, you took my post out of context. I don't criticise anyone for coming to the decision that Club Rovers is not for them or not cost effective for them.
My point is that our friends across the River are attempting to make capital out of the fact that people will make additional purchases from which Rovers will profit. Well, golly gosh! Who'd have thought you could accidentally put money into your club? Scandalous.
I somehow doubt that anyone is going to go out and buy that Dell laptop if they weren't already wanting one.
I seriously doubt that anyone wants one. But anyone who does is going to see it as a plus that the club will take a cut.
For me personally, the Roving Far and Wide option makes good sense. Your situation may be different and I fully respect that.
So please, take a chill pill.
