How many S/T's have you had in a row?

[BladeTillIDie]

Im 26 and on my 15th or 16th S/T next season just interested to see how many years some of you have been going every home game etc. Some commitment in life

Sorry to piss on your bonfire, but you aint a proper Blade unless you've seen us play in the old Division 4. Not being old enough is just a lousy excuse.

Also, if you've had a ST for several years in a row then it's YOUR FAULT that other peeps can't get a ticket to Man Utd away next season.

If your ST spanned 6 successive seasons in the third division, this makes you a crimes-against-humanity-shitwasp on a par with Eichmann, Stalin, Ted Bundy and Tony Blair.

The OP may have enough for a winter away midweek League Cup tie but not anywhere decent.


maxstertheblade, get raffle going for him.

Started with a season ticket on the Kop in 1981. Flush with cash after a summer working, I knew things might get a bit tighter when I went back to skoyal so I managed not to blow it all and 'invest' in United.

Had one ever since, but still not quite the biggest Blade.

1983 to present day, loads of loyalty points going to waste

 

[Sheffsteel]

As a general rule I’ve always had a season ticket when ever we’ve been in the top flight. So that’s the early 90’s and the 2007 season, bought them to guarantee I had a ticket when playing the likes of Man U, Liverpool etc.

However I was so impressed with the team that won league 1
I bought my first season ticket when not in the top flight, it was a no brainer, under Wilder it’s gauranteed entertainment
And there’s a principle at stake, the team are so good that they deserve our support.
Hence had a season ticket for the last 3 seasons, always been to about 66% of home games before then, for 40 odd seasons.

 

[Houston_Blade]

I had 17 seasons between the ages of 6 and 22. Then played Saturdays for a couple of years, had 3 more on the trot, then had kids and haven’t had one for 6 seasons (lived away for 4 years of that time). Bought next years’ now the lad is interested and we’ll be home again, I can get away with it again now he wants to go (yes I’m whipped).

I have around 30k loyalty points so I’m not a very big blade, although I had the majority of those before I stopped going 6 years ago.

My next mission is getting a golf membership again when I return!

[Silent Blade]

BLUT from January 1970, my dad decided on buying season ticket for us (his first time too- he had a regular standing spot at the Lane End since the war until he started taking me) from the 1971-72 season (we couldnt get a place in the BLUT for the games against Leicester (BLLT) and Luton (JSS) in 1970-71 season and this made him decide to buy a season ticket). He stopped buying season ticket in 1977 so we stood in Kop for the 1977-78 season. I usually was in the South Stand for the 1978-79 season. I missed some home games between 1973-74 and 1978-79 seasons because I was at boarding school in Berkshire. After leaving school in 1979 I bought myself a season ticket for 1979-80 but not long after that I decided to play football on Saturday afternoons so my dad took over my season ticket for matches I didnt go to. I was a part timer from 1979 to 1988. Became a season ticket holder again from when I bought a half season ticket in December 1988.

I prefer 'half part timer' to 'half season ticket holder'.

 

[Isar]

Are the 85 minute game season tickets cheaper?

 

[Guesty]

Since the 93/94 season. I have now, finally, seen as many promotions as relegations.

 

[Bannerman]

I've had a season ticket for 45 years. The only reason that I know that is because I've been married for 47 years next month. The season after we got married I arrived home after a match at the Lane and when asked how it went I said " Bloody rubbish as usual, that's me finished with em, "
To which my wife replied " How do those season tickets work? ".

I thought it was a strange response to my remark but explained the concept to her anyway. She then said " Do you save money? " ( Yorkshire Lass ). When I said yes, she said " Do us both a favour and get one, you're always going to follow them, we'll save money and I won't have to listen to you talking nonsense about not going anymore. "

I know a number of fellow Blades that are far more fanatical about it than I am and I don't particularly regard myself as a ' Bigger Blade ' than anyone, just old . We are going to get an increase in attendance next season because of promotion and I welcome it, apart from the increased trouble parking! Let's enjoy the moment and hope we can build on it.

 

[Maidenhead]

33 of the last 35 years.

I had to give my ticket up when as part of the deal that got my wife to move to Maidenhead for my job.

Saw about 8 home games first year down there, about 15 second year and third year I had my season ticket back.

Better seats too cos we were crap and people weren't renewing

4. This season will be 5.
In my defence though I’ve not lived in Sheffield for over 20 years due to marriage.
I had a season ticket for 12 years running as a teenager.
I don’t have many loyalty points!!. UTB

[alcoblade]

I’ve been going relentlessly since I was old enough to go by myself (40 years ish), but I used to enjoy going around the stands, so I was on and off with the season tickets.

I’ve had one on the kop since they seated it - so 25 years.

 

[WORKSOPBLADE]

Quite a while now !
