    Clearly you are not a football supporter, "real" supporters follow the same club from a nipper to death. There is no way I would support another club.

    What are you on about? Did I suggest he change club, well I may have done toungue in cheek.

    I have supported my club since 1968 and like I said no need for the interest free credit card as my club looks after it supporters

    Just renewed my Championship club season ticket and can now do it over 12 months DD. I presumed all clubs would offer incentives like this? Doesn't yours OP?

    When you've sorted the season ticket, save up £75 a month.

    Then you can pay cash next season.

    My club offer 3 months interest free.

    Its 6 or 7 years since I gave up my season ticket, but the club branded credit card always used to offer 0% APR for the length of the season on anything bought from the club (season ticket, any other odd tickets, anything from club shop etc).

    Liverpool offer to let you pay the cost of the season ticket over 10 months, with an admin charge of £5/month.

    That was also my point, I assumed that most if not all clubs offered the same, my season ticket was just over £500 for next season
