That's a nice idea - I shall do the same - Are their any charities which Uncle Mel particularly supports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To you and anyone else considering this plan of action. Bravo chaps. Super, super classy IMO and just another reason to be proud of the club and my fellow Rams.

People saying it’s a drop in the ocean but it’s not to be sniffed at and could certainly fund a half decent player I’m sure we’d all be happy with letting that season ticket refund go if we signed tomori mount or Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In previous years, Mel offered to refund the price of our renewed season tickets (if bought before a certain period) if we went up. We could keep the season ticket, essentially getting it for free. This was because the riches of the Premier League render season ticket sales insignificant. If you did understand what I was trying to say, then it’s because it will save me £250! wtf? why would we get a ST for free? surely that wont happen, dont expect that too. If anything I expected him to ask us to pay more, because we would be in the prem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not expecting it this season as nothing has been said, but that promise has been made for about the last three seasons. I think it was partly to encourage people to renew before the early-bird deadline. The lost ticket revenue would be dwarfed by the Premier League riches if we went up.

If anything I expected him to ask us to pay more, because we would be in the prem? The offer was made a few years ago, aimed specifically at the early birds... "Renew before end of March, when we have no idea whether we will get promotion or not and if we do, you can all have a full refund, as a thank you for your loyalty" type thing. Anyone renewing later were out of the equation. Nobody is certain whether the offer still stands, but if it does, I suspect it will only be those that renewed in the early bird period. Of course, He could quite possibly double all prices the following year, but hey, why look for negatives that may not even be there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not fussed either way, but I think the pay it forward idea is great, I'll go for the Derby County Community Trust as my charity should it happen.

As I say, I don't think the offer is applying this year as nothing has been said. You might get lucky though if he's feeling particularly generous after a Wembley victory.
