    Season Tickets!!!

    You seem to have posted that after the club have just confirmed that the delays have absolutely nothing to do with anything you have mentioned there. And why continue to mention Luton, they are a PL club with a ground already sold out with ST holders. Why not mention Sunderland who have been...

    Season tickets

    Not sure it matters too much, it will at least mean that monies from season tickets sold from this point will be received up front. I guess this will also apply to match tickets purchased in advance. Issue for me is that they didn't have this lined up already and just switched over when they...

    Season tickets

    Having been involved in merchant service applications previously, I know there is no guarantee on this, applications can take a while once they go to underwriting - this will be considered high risk. Hopefully it's next week as they say and they've already had that reassurance. Unless it's the...

    Season tickets

    Exactly. Sunderland, Sheffield United, Middlesbrough - they all had season tickets on sale long before they knew what division they would be in, as did we last season. This idea that the delay was because we were planning to raise prices on the back of promotion, as though this is normal, when...

    What is happening?????

    Yeah, not sure why people think there is any panic. There is some concern though given that it makes little sense for them not to be on sale. Pricing announced weeks ago. It is surely just a key press or two to get them on sale and the longer the buying window the better for everyone. It is a...

    Season tickets

    Piss off supporters for an extra £1m on the back of a £170 million windfall? It's already been confirmed that prices would not have risen had we been promoted. In any other season, had we not be waiting for a deal to stay at the CBS, season tickets would have been on sale months before promotion...

    Season tickets

    Why would they? No suggestion of that at all. This doesn't happen at any other club as season tickets usually on sale Feb/March so not sure where this suggestion comes from.

    Season tickets

    Fair point re the stadium deal. Hope you're right and I'm worrying about nowt. Thought it was a real opportunity to increase st sales notably and get a sense that opportunity has been missed a bit. We'll see.

    Season tickets

    We put ours on sale in early March last season, long before we knew what division we'd be in. Prices were published weeks ago anyway. Playoff final was last Saturday and it's Thursday tomorrow. Still no announcement. It's all a bit weird. Maybe there is an explanation and it will come out, or...

    Season tickets

    Middlesbrough put their season tickets for next season on sale in February. Sunderland put theirs on sale in March. Luton did pause.

    Season tickets

    Any evidence is anecdotal, I could give you several examples, but you'll just say they wouldn't have bought one anyway, so it's pointless. The idea that events and circumstances don't impact on ST sales is odd. You're saying that the positivity and prospect of PL football wouldn't have...

    Season tickets

    Not if they had kids. I bought the PL package, but no way I was going to pay £1000 for my two youngsters.

    Season tickets

    Of course they do. It's not all or nothing, these people will already be casual fans for the most part, they will go to games. Some will be 50/50 on whether to commit for the season and can be swayed by events. If we announce next week we're keeping Gus, you're saying not a single supporter will...

    Imagine thinking people buying something on impulse doesn't exist 😂

    Season tickets

    They are the sort of fans who do 8 or 9 games a season and who cannot make midweek games because of work. They were all set to bite the bullet a few weeks ago as they rode the wave of euphoria, but have now pulled back and had second thoughts. These are the sort of people we need to convince...

    Exactly. Unfortunately I know people who already have.

    Season tickets

    Last season we put them on sale on 9th March, long before it was known what league we would be in (we were 3 points off the play offs as late as April 15th with 5 games left). It is June tomorrow. The issue that people are highlighting is that the delays will result in lost sales, which was...

    Attendances next season

    The Cat A games at the end of the season masked the fact that there were some poor gates earlier in the season for the £33 games (notably down on the previous season). Burnley, Bristol City and even Albion were really poor gates. Sunderland and Norwich also disappointing. To increase prices...

    Season tickets

    Definitely lost revenue by not releasing earlier, and they are in danger of missing another payday if they don't release tomorrow. A bit odd this.

    Well done everyone

    Yeah, started taking my lad away from the age of 7. Nearly 15 now and it was the first time he'd ever sat. Needless to say he hated it.
