Spanish term or phrase: abonados
This should be an easy one for someone to answer. Basically I don't understand the relationship of a "abonados" to their football club. Are they members? Season ticket holders? Supporters?

Castilian Spanish to UK English


Esta búsqueda de una solución potente y, a la vez, capaz de adaptarse a las particularidades del Club en la gestión de abonados, jugadores o de patrocinios, concluyó en abril del año 2010, con la elección de Sage Murano.

En esta fase se ha reducido el precio de los abonos un 50% equiparando todos los precios a los pases de descuento que esta temporada pasada tenía el club. La segunda fase será del 9 de julio hasta la finalización de los abonos, en la que se incrementarán un 30% el precio de los mismos y se procederá a la liberación del asiento, excepto en el abono infantil que se mantiene. Además, se descontarán 50 euros en la retirada de su abono a accionistas y peñistas.

agree  Neil Ashby: Usually "abonados" is members - but with professional sports clubs it means season-ticket holder (basketball, handball, etc. are included). I'm "un abonado" of my city's free bike hire scheme for example.

disagree  Neil Ashby: Not here though - you may be confused with "socios" which we would call executive members or more typically in the UK for football "board members" (like any other business)
