ETFC Season Ticket Holders, GTT Subscribers and ETFCS members for information.

As all of you might have imagined, it has been a difficult period trying to establish the fairest mechanism for dealing with season tickets for both last and next season, given how few matches you have been able to attend in recent months due to the impact of Covid-19.

After much deliberation, the board have come up with three alternatives which we hope you will find acceptable.

During the 2020/21 season we played 5 home league games, so @25% of the games covered by your ticket/subscription. As such, the three options are as follows:

  1. A 75% refund on your 2020/21 Season Ticket or GTT Subscription 
  2. A credit of 75% against a Season Ticket or GTT Subscription for 2021/22
  3. The balance of your 2020/21 Season Ticket or GTT Subscription is donated to the club. Also free entry for pre-season friendlies, League Cup and Middx Cup games

Whilst option three might sound a lot to ask, we can assure you that your generosity will be put to good use. The reality is that the playing budget faces a big strain given our inability to create any secondary income during the pandemic. Any additional revenue received from your donations will be used to put together the most competitive squad we can.

In terms of Go To Town, should you choose option three. we will honour all existing benefits, including merchandise rewards.

We totally understand that for many reasons you may not be able to commit to option three. However if you would like to take advantage of options one or two please can you let us know by 30th April in order that we can take this information into account when setting the playing budget for next season. To register for your rebate or refund, please contact me at chairman@etfc.london

Many thanks for your understanding and continued support.

Update on the Curtailment of the Season

It has now been confirmed by the Isthmian League, after months of uncertainty yet with an obvious air of inevitability, that this season has been officially curtailed, frustrating of course for all of us who have enjoyed precious little live football over the past two campaigns but undoubtedly the correct decision as far as the board is concerned.

We would like to thank all supporters for their continued support through exceptionally difficult times and can only hope the 2021-22 season kicks off as scheduled, preceded by the usual friendlies, and that we can carry on where we left off in terms of our league position.

The board is conscious of the fact that many of you are season ticket holders and/or Go To Town subscribers and have spent good money in the hope of seeing a return on your investment.

Sadly the pandemic has put paid to this but it is important to stress that we are fully aware of your commitment and will be contacting each of you very soon with three specific options which we hope will be acceptable.

Further communication will follow in due course but in the meantime please stay safe everyone and we hope to see as many of you in person in the not too distant future.

COYT!

All the best

Paul Reed, Chairman
