Not got ours yet. I’ve been asked by everyone around me if I can go somewhere else as I sing too loudly and shout too much, so I’m feeling a little sensitive.
Need a box probably

At the football and in the bedroom you be as loud as you want mate and if other people don’t like it it’s their issue.

Absolutely! Especially when you stand on that upturned plug.

Don't know if this has been mentioned before, but apparently the club are no longer selling aisle seats in blocks 14, 15 and 16 in an attempt to limit the number of people in this area. If you had an aisle seat ST and renewed you are OK, but all unsold aisle seats were not released for sale and if you didn't renew, those seats were also not released.

It may only be 100-150 fewer people, but it seems an odd move. If they're worried about overcrowding, just police it better.

strange as this just allows people who haven't got tickets extra seats to stand in front of

Should open up 13, the number of seats closed off now we’re starting to fill the ground is ridiculous.

I've moved from block 30 to 16 for next season so had to wait for the seats to be released and was able to choose an aisle seat as my new one

I can’t see an update on numbers recently … have we smashed through last years number yet?

Yesterday was 11,250 or so IIRC. So only 300 or so off. I’d expect us to beat that before the early bird ends or very shortly after.

Next target is 12,500: the all time record.

Would be great, i just cant imagine another 1000 or so buying after early bird. To be honest I'm surprised anyone buys after early bird, cant think of a reason too, unless theyre waiting to see who is sold!

I may be wrong but think we sold a couple of thousand after early bird lat year. Really hard to find figures though.

not sure why you would not do early bird if you want a ticket, as even with the finance option it works out cheaper . Last years total included half season tickets, so if we have a good season the 12500 could go with that included

12000 season tickets with around say 2000 as an away capacity on average doesnt look great for anybody who wants to do the occasional away game - especially if you were not one of the 3000 at St Andrews

Very difficult to get away tickets next season. Our last 6 away games sold out and even Swansea was almost sold out. If Bristol City had not been mid week that would have sold out too.

Im still not convinced this new cap system will work. A uni mate from Sheffield told me that the people in say the top 2K followers at Utd buy an away ticket even if they can’t go. Just so that they don’t drop down in the allocation table. It then creates a black market for tickets to be sold on.

I have a few more to buy with the fund before Monday, any late nominations (or donations) then please get them in quickly so I can sort before close of play Monday.

Can I nominate cc84cov as the crap he spouts on here he can't possibly go to the games and he must like the club to keep posting, so can only assume he can't afford to go.

It's definitely the case. Somebody I know not renewing in block 15 on the aisle but the seat could not be released to his mate for reasons given and was explained by staff in the ticket office who refused to make an exception. Seats 1 and 2 of block 16 are to the right of the new fence that's going up that will split block 16 into 2 sections so maybe it doesn't apply on that side of the block.

It's no major issue anyway obviously, just thought it was an odd move.

Im completing on a mortgage 29/7 and all my monthly savings have been going toward that. Plus we’ve promised the bank our credit commitments will stay the same from application which rules out the finance option.

It’s niche, and 1,000 people won’t be in this situation 🤣, but there’s 3 season tickets being purchased after the early bird 👍🏻

I feared a huge jump to the normal prices but I think it’s only £50. Could’ve been a lot worse. Who knows, maybe someone from sales will call chasing my renewal and offer a deal….

Yes, they’re next to block 17. I’d heard about fences going up, but didn’t know what exactly. Will they be electrified?
