Renewed in the end. If it was just me I would have probably have given up for a while but my young kid still loves it, didn’t want to upset him. Taking him and seeing him excited is genuinely only enjoyment I have had going for a while.

Being holding out not to cancel. I got season ticket for my son and I. He is starting uni next season so he won't be interested in coming for games. I pretty much sold my tickets this session on ticket exchange but now I have decided not to renew as I have lost interest in the club.

Big shame Really, I love spurs but I do feel enough is enough; I will not accept someone taking my money and putting me through such distasteful service. I try to believe things will change but honestly i strongly believe not anymore under this current ownership.

I have to make a stand of some sort, if it makes a difference to the change of physiologic progress of the club; I don't know but I can't be bothered anymore.

Going to be very interesting in the few weeks after renewal period to hear any stories about people being offered season tickets.
My hunch is they won't actually use the list they will largely contact the season ticket holders next to the now empty seats to see if they want them that way they can keep trading on this myth that we have tens of thousands waiting for a season ticket.

Both long-term ST holders either side of us have jacked it in this season (I’m not taking it personally). I got a call from the club asking if I wanted to buy another seat. I think you’re right about the mythical waiting list. It’s only going to get shorter as well with the way things have been going.

I remember the summer I bought mine (same summer we bought berbatov) I just went on the website and applied for 2 seats in the east and west stands and got them in the west straight away. That was 2006 and it was easy to get season tickets then in a much smaller stadium. I can see a return to those times where if you are a hotspur plus member you can get them with ease and they’ll be no waiting list. There wasn’t then.

Been a ST holder for 25 years this stint, with a pause in the mid 90’s 10 years before that from a Junior ST - first game as a 6 year old in 1979. From walking to the ground from home 10 mins away in those early days to the trip now down from Cambridge, it’s so much part of my life.

I will renew, still haven’t yet. However will no longer spend pre and post match in the ground, which normally comes in at about 40/50 quid a game. The group I sit will do the same. They spend there or thereabouts too.

‘Going over the spurs’ is in the blood. It’s so much more than the game, thankfully as that has become a chore. It’s Mates, faces of old, a release, treating my sister and niece when I can….

Yep, I will part with a few quid for the ticket, my protest will be the beer, food and merch embargo I’ll put in place. Small change I guess but not going to let one man cut off my blood supply that is and has been the fabric of my life.

Very weirdly as I type this, my new neighbour who I haven’t got to know, no idea who he supports is in his garden whistling to his baby daughter ‘glory glory’. Straight up. Has to be a message to hang in there……

I haven’t purchased anything except my ST for about 10 years.
I stopped buying programmes when we moved house as we had boxes of them stored away and you can now read everything on the internet.
I take a bottle and fill up with water in the drinking fountain on the concourse.
They will probably be grateful when I finally give up my ST🤣
There's a drinking fountain?! Where??

Bang on. I'm away for a few days and therefore renewed our 2 x ST's yesterday. I feel exactly as you do.

In fact we (this season) started going to another pre match venue in order to meet up and have a drink. I don't buy any Spurs branded gear or programmes etc. either.

There’s certainly a free drinking water station on the 3rd floor of the South. I’m sure there are others. It’s under the screens as you come up the stairs.
Am in south lower, will have a good look around next season as never been abke to find ine and the stewards are useless. Just renewed again, but if my brother can't gwt one near me in the next couple of years, I will stop bothering

Been a season ticket holder for 20-odd years but I've decided not to renew. The repeat of the 2021 managerial search and losing out on Nagelsmann and Slot, as well as the lack of clear direction, was the final straw for me. I'm astounded that I've gotten to this stage; renewing was always the most no-brainer decision, so much so that the fear was always somehow missing the deadline by accident, but I can't in good faith support this ownership even if I know my lack of money won't make any dent whatsoever.

It sums up my general feeling with the club, as well as the lack of faith I have in anything changing in the foreseeable future. This is our Newcastle under Mike Ashley period and I think this stink will continue for years and years, and if it is to change it's not going to be for the better. A leopard doesn't change its spots and if it did it would have happened by now.

Honestly, the whole thing just makes me incredibly sad.

Thanks, that's what I've done so far just cancelled and sent a request for the other one. Not sure on loyalty points either, if we make a cup final they will be taken by ST holders anyway.
Not many ST holders can get tickets to finals these days. Only the ones who got into the loop before it closed.

Away tickets earn you the most points, but only those with the most points can get away tickets. #broken.
