Not so brilliant if you've already forked out for a season ticket. 😁

Clubs often offer a free programme to season ticket holders in situations like these.

I bought a “late season ticket” for £100 for 5 meetings. When they postponed the last match (weather was fine) and rearranged for this week I knew I couldn’t go as I travelled to Gorzow. I emailed them saying it was pointless me buying the season ticket, they responded with “you have still saved some money and we will give you a programme”. They were hinting that I’ve still saved £5. Then two days later they wrote they are giving a discount of £5 to that match, bearing in mind I actually never want a programme, so I basically am no better off, which isn’t the end of the world and I’m not that fussed. What it did show me is that season tickets are pointless in speedway because one or two rain offs and if you can’t make the re runs then you don’t save any more. I’ll never invest in another season ticket again in this sport.

Season tickets rarely offer much financial gain but I have one as it saves the faff of booking for each meeting and means Mum & I are in the same seats every meeting, have been for years. It’s also said it gives the club a financial boost pre season which helps at a time of no income. 

I’m never bothered if special deals crop up like Richard’s £5 discount and think clubs should do more of this to boost interest.

Pretty sure football season tickets give you financial gain though? I know it secures your seat as seats are sought after in football, especially the prem. As for Ipswich Witches, I can safely get a ticket every meeting in a matter of minutes and sit wherever I want in the stand for no charge or stand where I want, a season ticket gives you literal no advantage over just booking each week, at least mine didn’t. If anything it gives you financial loss if so many are rearranged and you can’t go to the re runs, whereas on the day you’ll never be in that situation as you just want buy them if it’s raining and called off.
