I think for some people that would genuinely be the best thing for their mental health
ST holder and a bit torn over it
COVID
Travel (might feel differently if I lived in London/on the border)
Super League
Levy
Tired squad
Crap football
No clear direction/vision
63k means I will probably get tickets to some games more easily
I definitely feel a bit disillusioned with Spurs, but also football more widely.
Main way of getting the fan voice heard is to stop spending money on the club. The problem is there is more demand than supply at the moment, and the club knows this.
Can I ask why?
Just do, Take a certain amount of money with me. I know what I've spent then. Plus I prefer the pub.
I’m not a ST holder so it’s been an easy decision for me to not renew my membership. I’ve also made the decision to stop spending money on the club for now. No more replica shirts or merchandise, no more Sky Sports, no more going to matches, and no more Spurs related gifts for my brother and niece who are both fans too.
I know in the grand scheme of things that’ll have zero impact, but it’s my own little individual protest. I’ll constantly reassess though and if things change I might start investing again.

Better to be a patron - not quite as indentured as a devotee (the fan who just can't help it) but without the expectation of a customer.
I think a patron offers their support, and expects no direct return for it - but expects the receipient to make use of it wisely and not embarrass all concerned.
Let's say a big name actor or musician has some endorsement thing with a car manufacturer. Goes on a drug and alcohol fuelled rampage and makes headlines and writes off a car made by that brand.
They'd get cancelled pretty sharpish.
At least dodge the club's own retail channels, they miss out on the markup.
And cut out the own brand nick nacks for sure, most of it is pound shop junk anyway. Some of the clothes are worse than Primark.
Date/Marry one of the main shareholders/board members or one of their family. Then make any suggestions at any future family dinners!!

Thank you for your email.
If you do not renew then we will be able to provide you with a refund for the 20% payment you made last season in addition to any credit held in your account.
This is something we will be able to process once the current renewal deadline has passed, and we will make contact with you at that time. Should you have any further queries in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to get back in touch.
If the football doesn't improve, then yes I agree.
Yeah we might end up with 100 people at a protest instead of 50
Fans seem willing to accept any load of shit that is fed to us
Seen so many people claim they weren't renewing their season ticket right up to the very last moment and they all folded
