Aplogies if this as been posted already but I've noticed today on SCFC direct the 150 year scarf that came with plat + / plat membership packs is now on sale, does anyone else think this is wrong as it completely devalues the membership packs, surely the club should have produced a different scarf for commercial sale?

I agree with the original post and I am going to send back my scarf, my Platinum+ coin and my season ticket - and I am not going to put a stamp on the envelope - that'll learn 'em! ;D

So all plat+ members deserve a scarf and commemorative coin for paying extra when they are doing exactly the same as every other supporter in following the team they love?
Sometimes i hate fucking hate the wankers behind the scenes at our football club.
I don't buy prem+ on principle but always buy my season ticket so why aren't all season ticket holders given a coin and scarf?

I agree that it would have been a nice gesture to give all ST holders a coin - it is a nice memento of the anniversary. I wouldn't get excited about the scarf - I got one for being Plat+ it isn't as nice as the old style scarf I bought from the shop a few years back. |

I agree squeekster and also don't buy on principle. Had it free the first season but fuck their money robbing scheme.
Having visited 98 grounds in this country and ten abroad following stoke city, I am then told I have to pay in order to get a priority on away tickets. Nothing but a joke.
Oh and stokiematt. Balls to your coin. I've got my memories.

Well I am Platinum Plus and was disgusted Platinum members received a scarf, as you are not loyal enough to wear it! My good God!! May I ask why you are Platinum member? Is it because you get loyalty gifts? Was it for the tour? Or was it to guarantee a Wembley ticket? I am Platinum Plus Member to ensure I get away match tickets, not that it is a problem these days. I know El 'Angry' Greco and like him, I had my membership free of charge for the first season and rightly so IMO. Whilst I continued to pay, it doesn't mean I agree with it. Just like I didn't agree with ID Cards, I still purchased one in time for the Grimsby alongside El 'Angry' Greco so we could continue to follow our beloved team. Personally I think away games should still work on a point system, not a money system. I believe membership system was to put in place as another way of making cash, without upsetting the majority of supporters by increasing Season Ticket prices. I applauded the club for finally rewarding the supporters who travel away by giving the Platinum Plus membership for free. However, as a Stoke supporter, money aside (ticket prices) it was an easy time following Stoke away from home. Many supporters wanted to go as many away games as possible and rightly so, this was our first year in the Premier League. However the first season in the Premier League decided who deserved to be Platinum Plus and who didn't. Forgotten was the support of the Football League days. Platinum Plus should continue to be free to supporters who attend to 90% or more of the away matches. It is wrong IMO I could continue to be Platinum Plus for the rest of my days and never attend an away game again. Anyway rant over, or I could go on and on.... |

I buy the plat membership because it suits me. I can get tickets at an early stage which allows me (online) to pick the bestish seats. The fact that I got a scarf was just a bonus. I wouldn't have bought a scarf and will probably not wear it.
Can someone post a pic of the coin. I would have rather had one of them as a keep sake.

If 40£ match day tickets and platinum plus memberships keep the price of ST for the majority it's not a bad trade off

I'm not saying it shouldn't be on sale to all supporters I just think when the membership pack is sold to you that it includes a special limited edition scarf to celebrate the 150th year you think that's a nice keep sake for the future but for the exact same scarf be put on general sale only a month later is wrong in my opinion. I think the club should have produced a separate line for general sale thats all. |

I agree - it's more of a momento
Will the coins be on sale next?
Maybe too many were produced and they want to recoup some revenue.
Opportunity for some charity link?
