That's him! Thanks Wilf, but unfortunately I don't do Facebook or Twitter or any other social media thingy :>)
Been thinking about this all weekend, as I feel the club could really suffer for yrs to come. If every pass holder donated £20 payable in 2 payments, for instance one now and one in July. This would give a potential pot of £160k which would help the club massively, and in return the club could honour this by reducing the price of next yr season passes

That would be the equivalent of a loan, which is obviously what AP has been trying to secure, but I reckon the club needs addition funding which doesn't add to the existing debt - remember AP said he had invested heavily in this seasons squad. A loan would be fine if the income streams came back to normal pretty soon, but I can't see that happening for a long time.
I wonder how many people wouldn't "risk" attending games next season, if a vaccine isn't available for at least another year.
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

All adds up, £5 Walton Street car park, £2.50 for a coffee in the stadium, snacks, beer fuel, Half time draw tickets, Away game tickets & travel..obviously merchandise is still available but might be worth thinking about if low cost to administer.
Whilst I agree that people are saving on these outgoings, many of us have been Furloughed and therefore these savings are helping massively in keeping our depleted income stable. The clubs aren't the only ones worried about the future and whilst I'm not on the breadline by any stretch of the imagination, yet, there will be many many fans that will be worried about what the next few months hold financially because how many of our own working companies will survive this?

Whilst I appreciate that money is tight for many people at the moment, I believe about 8500 of us were committed enough to the club, to purchase season passes. If it gets to the stage where we need to take action, then I'm sure many of that number will be committed enough to donate a small sum to ensure that they get to use that pass again. I definitely would.
