Swansea City has unveiled a special pledge that could see the club's growing fan base rewarded for their superb support with FREE Premiership football in 2010-11.
The club today declared to Swans fans everywhere: "Back us in the Championship and we'll back you in the Premiership.''
The pledge is simple, but impressive and ambitious: 'Every Swans fan who buys a season ticket for the new Championship campaign will be guaranteed a free season ticket for the Premiership if the Swans clinch a place in the top flight next season.'
The offer is open to new and existing season ticket holders. The thousands of fans who have already taken up the offer of the half-price season tickets pledge will be automatically upgraded to the free option.
"Swans fans have had an uncertain few weeks,'' explained Swansea City's vice-chairman Leigh Dineen. "But the arrival of Paulo Sousa has given everyone a massive boost and plenty of hope for next season.
"You could see that renewed optimism in the ticket office on Saturday where Swans fans were queuing around the stadium to guarantee their season ticket for next season.
"Although it signalled a significant rise in season ticket sales, as a club we are still determined to not only reward our fans for their unbelievable support over the last few seasons, but also to give Paulo Sousa every chance of success by packing the Liberty Stadium with passionate Jacks for every game next season.
"We are all fighting to fulfil the same dream of playing top flight football, so our pledge to Swans fans is to back us in the Championship and we'll back you in the Premiership.''
The free season ticket offer is open until Friday, July 17, 2009.
