Also, if anyone's mind is closed to womens football then surely just assess the season ticket package value ignoring that element? If you decide it's too expensive then so be it but it's nowt to do with the women's team. The Bryn consortium are not going to be dragging you to the ground by your heels on womens match days!!

Where can anyone realistically get a few hours entertainment for under £20 these days? I get that money is tight for the majority, myself included, but if you could afford to attend last season then this rise isn't a deal breaker. Apologies if that sounds harsh, but it isn't.
When I started a thread earlier this year, many jumped on the fact that we nearly didn't have a club to support, which is absolutely right, but now the Board have made this decision let's extend the same gratitude for being able to attend matches still.

As a side note, if anyone had particular extenuating circumstances I'm almost certain based on their conduct to date, that the club would come up with a special bespoke arrangement, for example an installment plan.

Personally I think the cold light of day will see this issue soon pass. Ultimately, attendances are dictated by how the team are doing, ranging from the diehard 1500 through to 5000 if we're top of the league. I suspect a very small percentage would not attend due to new prices.

Also, if the family stand does become a true family environment again and money is invested in initiatives to enhance kids' enjoyment of the experience then that must be a positive thing all round.

Reality is, TUFC tickets are almost the only thing not to have increased in recent years and overall this strikes me as a well thought out decision based on business rationale designed to put the club in the best position over future years. They haven't simply added £x but instead, created different options so everyone can elect what best suits them.

It's been a long time since we had owners operating in such a strategic way and I applaud it.

Good news. Hoping BW get promoted in terms of stronger team next year.

We came 2nd in the league by 2 goals and lost a one off eliminator match by 1 goal. All against backdrop of being hours from oblivion less than a year ago. Perspective needed here people!

The players gave everything against a very physical opposition. I personally don't get all this negativity. What a season it's been. Anyone spouting dross such as that we should have pissed the league should go and find a new sport to watch!

Another day we win that. Today we didn't. That happens, take the positives, take a break and get prepped for Buckland away pre season!

I'll be staggered if it's sold out already. I suspect an initial phase were released at short notice with more to follow once there's been time to sort the logistics. For example, I can't believe either opponent will need the away terrace so that can be used.

Does anyone know if there will be a stream? National League post said all games televised but how can ours be, on a Saturday at 3pm? Perhaps it will be international viewers only?

550 more now available. What a bumper pay day for Hemel. Fair play to them for milking it. Brings back memories of giving the popside to away fans in years gone by (Birmingham?). I personally was fine with that, have to exploit the opportunity to make some easy cash at our level.

Worthing 1 - 1. Covolan error

Great goal too!

Doesn’t matter now, thank god, but I think the two TQY players virtually tackling each other in front of the opposition goal will go into the end of season outtakes

Unless it comes down to goal difference!

Young
Zanzala
Dyer
Dreyer
Hayfield

Personally I'm not sure it was that close. Bath offered very little and had we not scored when we did, we'd have further increased the tempo to get the goal needed. As it was, they saw the game out well.

I thought Young was exceptional and Zanzala excellent too. Centre backs gave nothing all day either.
