Cardiff City are offering their fans an amazing opportunity to watch Premier League football for FREE next season - and help Dave Jones strengthen his squad in January.
Anyone who buys a 2010-11 season ticket before December 31 will have their money REFUNDED if the Bluebirds win promotion this season.
And the cash that comes in will go towards bringing in players during the New Year transfer window.
Yes, you could be watching Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool at Cardiff City Stadium absolutely free of charge. If you have already bought your season ticket for 2009-2010 the offer applies to you.
Manager Dave, who came up with the idea, said: "It's a no-brainer. If we get to the Premier League, you will watch your football for nothing. If it doesn't happen, then you're still buying to support the club.
"I've asked the chairman that if anybody buys a season ticket before December 31 and the club get promoted, then we should reimburse all the supporters who have bought a ticket and the money will enable us to go and get players in. It's a fantastic offer and a fantastic gesture by the board.
"The fans have been brilliant in the time I've been at Cardiff City and this is their chance to give us that extra push."
Buying a season ticket before the end of the year will also freeze the price for the next FIVE years. Here's how the inflation-busting offer works:
*Fans who buy a 2010-11 season ticket before December 31, 2009 will become Platinum Ambassadors and will be guaranteed NO price increases for five years.
*If the Bluebirds are promoted, fans who bought before December 31 will be reimbursed in full. This also applies to supporters who have already bought their 2010-11 season tickets.
*The offer applies to fans old and new - you don't have to be an existing season ticket holder to benefit.
*Prices start from as little as £14 per game for an adult and just over £2 per game for under 16s. Yes! £2 a game.
*We will still be offering our highly successful under-9s go free policy in the Braces Bread Family Stand.
*The offer is open until December 31, 2009.
*You still buy tickets season by season and you do NOT have to guarantee to buy for all five years
*You can still buy tickets after 31/12/09, but you don't get the five-year deal or the chance of free Premier League football.
*If we change owner, the offer still stands.
*Juniors who reach adult status during the five-year term will become liable for the full adult price in the season AFTER they reach the age of 16. Adults who reach the age of 60 during the five-year term will pay the concession price for the season AFTER their 60th birthday.
HOW TO BUY
To become a Platinum Ambassador, you can purchase outright online at www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk
By phone on 0845 345 1400
