Supporters would accept season ticket discount

|

A majority of West Ham supporters would happily accept a discount from next season’s West Ham season ticket at the London Stadium should the remaining games be played behind closed doors or the season be declared null and void.

A Claret and Hugh poll revealed more than 48% of those voting would accept a season ticket discount next season equal to the five home games missed while over 25% said they would prefer a refund in real money as soon as possible.

A further 15% would accept a season ticket discount over two seasons to help the club finances while nearly 6% said they would forgo any refund to help the club.

The remaining 7% said the refund should be donated to charity or given to the NHS.

With five home games remaining at the London Stadium the refund bill could be around £5m even though the ticket terms and conditions do not specify the number of home games included in a season ticket. The Club has yet to make a decision adopting a wait and see approach on whether the season can be completed in front of supporters or not.

    How many people voted ? Where was the vote published ? Depends on your audience and who saw it the typical replies you got. I think more real people will want real money refunded than 25%, as normal people are furloughed on 80% of income, or not getting income at all or redundant. They need cash now.
