COWDENBEATH'S board of directors are offering season ticket holders for 2019-20 a refund.

The club firstly is offering refunds for fans who found themselves only seeing 14, rather than 18 games, last term due to the outbreak of Covid-19.

Said secretary David Allan: "We would like to acknowledge that season 2019/20 of course had a restricted League campaign. Thus our season ticket holders only had 14 instead of 18 home league games.

"We would like to deal with that issue by offering refunds to any fan who may wish one as follows: Adult - £180 ticket (£40 refund)/£200 ticket (£44.50). Concessions - £90 ticket (£20)/£110 ticket (£24.50).

"It would though very greatly help the club if fans were able to forego any refund and instead allow the club to retain these amounts as a donation. That would additionally also permit us to reclaim a small amount of VAT on each of those tickets.

"It would be most gratefully appreciated if season ticket holders were able and willing to help us in this way bearing in mind the Covid-related challenges and difficulties that still lie ahead".

David added: "If you wish a refund we would be obliged if you could contact us to arrange this by Facebook message, e-mail to office@cowdenbeathfc.com or by phone on 07885 606759 by Friday July 24. If we do not hear from you we would then assume that your preference is to make a donation and we can then also make the necessary VAT adjustments."

The secretary concluded: "Moving ahead to 2020/21, gate prices for next season will remain at the same level as in 2019/20.

"We are now just awaiting publication of the League fixtures for 2020/21 later this month to confirm whether we have a 13 or 14 home game programme beginning in mid-October. That will then allow us to finalise season ticket prices and begin sales. So we will look to make a further announcement very soon".

Finally, we trust you, your families and friends are all still well and keeping safe. We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back to Central Park in the not too distant future – 7 months will be more than long enough without our regular ‘footballing fix’! Thanks for all your patience and ongoing support.
