Premier League Season Ticket

Hi all, I wish to renew my season ticket this season - but the issue is I currently don't have the money until around Christmas.

I remember reading before that Barclay's offer 0% interest for 12 months on all season ticket purchases.

Is that true? Will it be for new customers? And if not would it be possible to do it on my Dad's card?

Thanks for your time, but I can afford to pay it off by January at the absolute latest... So I'm looking for any interest free payments until then.

    That is exactly what it does, allows you to buy it each year at 0% It will be for new customers of that card but unfortunately for you, reading this http://www.barclaysfootball.co.uk/, it seems they are not accepting new customers for that card.

    Have you asked at the club about paying in installments? I know Newcastle have started to do this for this year and i heard someone else was too. Simple direct debit to set up and your done

    Newcastle should pay you mate, not the other way round
  • That was a good deal from Barclaycard but it has long been removed from there main website. Last time I saw that card on offer was back in 2008.

    Another case of a fan effectively being priced out of what is supposed to be a working class pastime.

    Not sure how much your season ticket would cost but I bet it's more than the 160 euros that you would pay to watch the mighty Dynamo Dresden. And in England you certainly won't be able to watch the game standing on the terraces whilst drinking Beer.

    Brighton & Hove Albion (my team) are for the new Amex Stadium. I think it's a great idea. If only the bigger teams would do so too.
