I think it should be this year surely £20 per year which will go straight to the new financing of the stadium. If we can get 1,000 people to 'renew' that is £20k straight up towards the ground.
I appreciate the benefits aren't obvious but in terms of what it goes towards - that should be.

lo, a season ticket should be a season ticket and priced as such. Anything else I.M.O. is counterproductive.

That's why I did not renew after 17 yrs of been a season tickets holder just wasn't any value as I've missed 3 games this season

I said that? I said that renewals of CIC memberships should be down to the CIC this year. I meant they shouldn't piggy back like last year. I just think this year they have a pretty easy sell to get people to renew on their own account.

The club done really well out of CIC membership going straight to the club last year. In theory everyone paid an additional £20 and this went directly to the club instantly.
This year the club wouldn't get that extra £20 from 650 or so people, or at least wouldn't get it into the accounts instantly like last year. They will no doubt see that money in some way, over time though and I would imagine the VAT man would see less.
