Season ticket news

i hope Thommo stays , and i hope also that the owners let him have total choice of who he wants , and he don't get pressured by owners to keep their favourites , if not you can forget next season. a lot of changes needed including brits that are not contributing anything. looking at the stats you may as well try new blood .
It's very interesting to see how many are considering whether to renew or not and I get it that it's a dilemma for some that if they don't renew they may never get a ST back again.
I can say that from my own experience walking away is not the big scary thing it first appears to be. My first Devils game was back in '89 vs Murrayfield Racers and I was hooked to a Devils seat ever since, many years.
I took the decision to walk away 3 years ago, gave up my ST and moved on, a bit strange first and a period of adjustment, but I've had a Cardiff City ST the last 3 years and probably spent in excess of £2K on 2ST and clubshop merchandise since.
I saw the Devils changing in many ways and I just felt it to be cold and not the club I knew anymore so the decision to move on became strangely very easy.
Times change and the Devils won't be missing me.
I guess for a lot of people right now it is very much a crossroads moment. It will be interesting to see how the support goes next season, actual game night support that is, not the social media hype by the Devils front office.

I really hope the league set up some form of streaming package. I can't justify a season ticket with work commitments, I can't get any tickets for a game with the queueing system (by the time I get through there are only a few single seats left). Also £16+ for a one off stream is diabolical. I'd be willing to pay £50+ a month for a pass for all games
Sorry mate can’t see that happening, although I also wish it was an option, clubs make good money from streaming and so won’t want to lower it. Myself I think £10 is more reasonable but im not terribly interested to watch a game where my team ain’t involved. This season I have watched all Devils away games unfortunately.
I always see conflicting stuff on this; some say the majority of money goes to the company providing the streaming, others say the club make lots of money from it.
A league wide set-up would be a big upfront cost, but after that the margins would be massive, unfortunately I believe there would be limited real world comparisons to get funding/work out the financials.
I'd also be surprised if rinks are still happy farming this out to a company, if they are, they should really look at bringing it in-house, if they are already in house can imagine that there would be a real reluctance to bin off that infrastructure.
