Simon Young

@olimar99 @Humpadink @IpswichTown Exactly this. And if someone genuinely was giving up, then the follow-up message would be thanks for your support, we hope to see you again soon.

@MrSimonYoung @Humpadink @IpswichTown It would make sense (no idea if they did) to at least send out personalised emails to check if people genuinely just forgot. Or understand the reasons why cancelling. That said, there is a waiting list they need to be able to justify these days now too.

Very disappointed in my football club, @ipswichtown My son was late renewing his season ticket, which is right next to mine. #ITFC says rules are rules, and he's now lost the seat, even though spaces had not yet been allocated to the waiting list/ cont...

@DERBYPAUL3 @KopFinest @IpswichTown That was good of them. Good luck next season.

@KopFinest @MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown This happened to me at Derby, but Derby saved them for us, probably because it was Disabled ST's & been going for 15 years at the time with my lad.

@DaffinPaul @IpswichTownFans @itfchelp And he’s been told to pay for membership and get to the back of that

@DaffinPaul @IpswichTownFans @itfchelp There’s a 5 or 6k waiting list

@Pompeyalbie @IpswichTown Nope. Computer says no.

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown There must be someone who will listen at the club.. Fan Liason Officer or someone like that.

@DougieSpen @pablolightfoot @IpswichTown Thanks - and congrats ⬆️

@MrSimonYoung @pablolightfoot @IpswichTown Hope you can get this sorted Simon. It's so important to have family around you at the games, last Saturday at Wembley being a prime example in my case.

@Molineuxworld @IpswichTown Thanks. Expected some grief, no problem with that.

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown Little situations like this break it all down for the supporter. Naturally all the smart arses will tell you rules r rules. All it needs is a little compassion & common sense, thats all it requires from the club. Its as simple as that. Good luck sir 🤞

@darin_burrows @KerenOrient @OrientRob @IpswichTown Well because I auto renew my ticket on direct debit but he pays up front each season for his ticket and so does not have that auto renew luxury.

@KerenOrient @OrientRob @MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown 🧊😂

@Humpadink @IpswichTown Yes, a phone call to those who had let the date slip would have been cool - either to thank those genuinely leaving for their custom, and to give those who had forgotten the nudge they needed to get their bank card out. Someone will tell me that's ridiculous, but never mind!

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown Shame they aren't willing to show any compassion. A quick phone call or text to say 'are you renewing' or 'kind reminder' would have done the job and rattled my brain into gear.

@ncfcmustard @IpswichTown Yes, I'm on DD and auto-renewal but Alex got into the habit of paying for his seat yearly in advance.

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown We’ve been paying on DD for 23 years at #ncfc; it auto-renews, so we never need to think about it. However, as a Dad who goes to games with his 2 sons, I’d be hugely disappointed if there was such a lack of compassion. All clubs need to build & maintain goodwill with their fans…

@Humpadink @IpswichTown sorry to hear that. Alex 100% admits its his fault, too, but the 'computer-says-no' response is disappointing

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown just saw your post and realised I'm in the same boat! Been a season ticket since McCarthy era and just realised I had messed up and not renewed in time :(. I feel his pain.

@peckham65Grant @IpswichTown Thank you for your considerate reply

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown Unless he was on a ventilator,it’s his own fault

@jbhoymolloy @IpswichTown Glad you got it sorted - and congrats on the double!

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown That's a real sore one. I had an issue with an away game criteria when I inadvertently thought I had bought it and realised I hadn't. Could have been 25+ away record affected. Thankfully, I got it sorted but had to contact the main man Maybe so similar. Hope he gets it back

@chrispnewrdm71 @IpswichTown Maybe show a little compassion? I won't go into more detail about the family health problem.

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown That’s sad but at the end of the day the deadline was missed what are the club supposed to do ?

@LozNorthon @IpswichTown Nice to hear

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown 89/90, at Maine Rd, someone forgot to renew in time and I was allocated his seat. He rang the club, they rang me and explained, we agreed on a new seat and everyone was happy. It really was that simple. Eventually ended up sitting together and we still do now, 30 odd years later.

@financefraz @IpswichTown @Pompey lol - that takes the biscuit

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown That’s bad enough but @Pompey sold my seat to someone else BEFORE the deadline!!

@Giant_Jouster @IpswichTown @premierleague I see what you did there 😅

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown They need to Reform their ways, but that’s the @premierleague for you!

@AndyPearson68 @IpswichTown Thank you for your assistance

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown Moral of the story Simon don’t miss the cut off date 📆 Thank me later 🚜

@wobblymoomin @IpswichTown Thanks

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown That’s a shame, what skin off anyone’s nose would it be to just be decent and kind. Sad times, hope something gets sorted for you 🤞

@bdrsuffolk @IpswichTown We’re guilty of the ‘pub before bit. The Greyhound, obviously!

@MrSimonYoung @IpswichTown They would love to fill the stadium with new people every game, maximising earnings in club shop, beverages etc. it’s all about revenue, long standing SUPPORTERS who visit a pub before and after are not good value for money. A sad reflection of the modern game. Rant over!
