You say that like it's a bad thing
May be I am an argumentative c***. I'd like to think I just stand up for my opinions and challenge others when they're being arsey. But that's a matter of perception.
If people don't like that then that's their problem. So long as I'm not being abusive then what's the issue?
At the end of the day people give what they can, it is their choice, many people turn up to take a days enjoyment out of the club for a ticket price and nothing more, and some others turn up and buy a ticket, 4 pints, car parking, a home and away shirt, put a tenner in the B2D fund, 50/50 tickets etc.
It is up to each individual and I personally hate the under current eminating from certain areas that you're less of a fan if you aren't doing everything you can financially. It is a huge part of the club at the moment but some fans just can't do anymore, or even don't want to and
that is entirely up to them.
I myself can't wait until we're back in Darlington and I can have a few pints in town and stroll down to the ground and have a few more, I hope I don't get berated at the gates for not having my fill at BM however (starting to sound like fattyeatsroadkill now!)

100% agree with TDS.
People give what they can and want to.
We park in Tesco's, buy 2 match tickets and a 50/50 between us every game. Yes the club needs every penny it can, however i don't think it should be an issue where people park.
If people want to use the club car park and give an extra 3 quid to the club good on them

Pardon my ignorance - what was the saving last season on a parking season ticket, compared to paying on the day?

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.
Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

I always park in there. Feel like I'm doing the right thing.
In terms of getting out, there is now so few people parking in there that on Saturday I was straight out no bother at all. Would go as far as recommending it.

Season pass costs £50, or £3 per game
