Surely, the primary reason to buy an ST is the savings it brings, if you attend every home game. If you then add in finance then that would surely cost to do and the cost per match, would go up. I have no idea how much the finance option adds but I’d be interested to hear from anyone who has done this.
We really have made a pigs ear of this haven’t we. The last finance company went out of business.
No wonder the Ted’s call us the gift that keeps on giving.

Well this how finance usually works....and why have we made a pigs ear out of it?
Its a good option, guarantees the club a season ticket sale and limits the liability to a 3rd party and giving an option to stage payments to a punter.

No the teds call us the gift that keep on giving coz the forum is full of people worried about what the teds think of them, and can't wait to post about what the teds think of us. It's f**k all to do with them. Our finance company failed, through no fault of ours; it failed for Villa, Forest, and Rangers, among many others. Well done to BRFC for getting something reorganised at such short notice. |

By the previous finance company going out of business is what I’m referring to. |

Regardless how can you blame the club for a finance co. going bust, it seems the owners are getting a kicking for what ever they do, good or bad. It wasn’t meant as a kicking but more that I’d like to think that whoever is responsible for brokering the deals, would do some studying of their situation. I know as much as any other fan, it just seems that the mintbet thing and the finance deals didn’t turn out well. I don’t know who is responsible for this but it seems many point to TG. It just seems that we have had a lot of bad luck then. I just gave an opinion, maybe it’s wrong, I don’t know but I don’t think it does any harm in asking questions. I just wish we could be a happier bunch if we didn’t have these problems is all. |

No the finance company's bank decided to not continue providing the funds for more finance. The finance company is still solvent and are seeking new backers. All existing customers just simply carry on paying their loans back as normal. I might add this was one of the largest companies providing finance to huge numbers of different sports i.e golf, football etc etc. |

And on this occasion not the clubs fault, it’s happened to other much bigger clubs. That it’s been dealt with I would have thought it was something to congratulate the club for. There’s enough other stuff to criticise them for perhaps. But not this.😉 UTG! |

I have no idea how much the finance option adds but I’d be interested to hear from anyone who has done this. We really have made a pigs ear of this haven’t we. The last finance company went out of business. No wonder the Ted’s call us the gift that keeps on giving. You make a very interesting and reasonable point? The main reason for buying a season ticket is the savings you make. Secondary things like a free pasty, having to buy each home ticket in advance, priority for cup games, etc. should be considered but cost comes first. so if you are buying through finance, how much are you saving when compared to each home ticket price? Then factor in any matches to be missed not forgetting that a season ticket means you will be more obligated to go because you have already paid for it rather not bothering to go because of the travel, food and drink costs as well as the time to be spent when we are middle of the table with nothing to play for and sh**ty Gillingham, Wimbledon, etc. coming. would be interested to know how much interest is paid and then factor this in vs the home game price. |
