You know people that were getting a season ticket , whatever the division and have changed their mind ?Exactly. Unfortunately I know people who already have.
But with PL TV money any increase in ST prices would be trifling in terms of overall income. He'd have been giving 5k ST away for free if we'd gone up!Premier league pending. The published prices specified Championship.

I was more making it about this season specifically as the normal ST's haven't gone on sale arguably because DK wanted to see if he could hike the price due to promotion and how it would have been a paltry amount overall and we'd have given 5k away.You misspoke you mean when

WowNo they arent you were just talking shit
I agree, there have been missed opportunities. They should have released the standard early bird tickets and got more money in. I haven’t done the figures, but the break even point will probably be missing 5 or so games. That’s ok for the majority of fans In my opinion. I used to work shifts, I didn‘t go to many games at all. It was pointless me having a season ticket.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. There are a few like this whose money could have been in the bank.
I've no idea if it will make a major difference to the numbers, hopefully not though.
you would have hoped they went on sale this week. poor they haven’t been released yet or even a date confirmed
I can think of Worse things.Its tragic tbh
Tim Fisher in the shower?
do people really live like that ?Pay day money rapidly getting spent…
I thought you weren't renewing? Fucking hell relax.I'm actually starting to get really pissed off with this tbh.
Its June tomorrow and there is zero sign of tickets being on sale.
Doug's meant to be a businessman, you don't need a degree in fucking business studies to know that when there are thousands of fans ready to renew, and loads more who have caught the bug again from the end of the season and Wembley, you capitalise and get the tickets on sale.
What's he fucking playing at?
Couple of thousand people definitely who will be starting to use that ,money elsewhere if it was a choice of ST/another
Yeah, it's more likely they aren't really that bothered.I cant believe how little of you on here dont think its weird they arent on sale
Cant use the 'dunno what league we were going to be in' excuse as we didnt until mid April last year yet they wont on sale in March
I know of 5 people who were fully on the bandwagon of the play offs who were going to commit to next season and now probably wont
There's going to be a lot more
So they were willing last will but not this week?The club really missed the boat. Last week was the right time to get them on sale. Whilst the “plastic fans” as some like to call them were willing to sign up for the season.
do people really live like that ?
They know the prices so will not come as a surprise
Surely that's why it's kept aside?Some people dot have much expendable income tbh.
Ive kept the money to the side for the past 3 months but thats £350 i could easily use elsewhere. Getting a new car end of July, could add that to the deposit, having a week in Dorset in August, could use it towards that.
There are a lot of people who have to make choices between things, I was one until a couple of years back, and i feel the club are taking the piss a bit

If they don't have that much income then get them on finance to help with cashflow.
At this point it's just the standard whinging for whinge sake.
You are a consumer of football, I’ve made choices in the past. I don’t believe you’ve seriously considered putting another £350 down on the car. Wasted money. Depreciation doubles your losses.Some people dot have much expendable income tbh.

Yep, not because they support Cov but because they were caught up in the emotion of potentially seeing big teams coming to the CBS. These fans would of course get hooked and keep their season ticket in future. But the key to pushing them into the initial outlay was the prospect of the Prem.So they were willing last will but not this week?
I’m still not sure they will have lost any potential tickets. If we went up, then of course there would be more. As it stands, I think the sales will be 15-16k. Better than last season.In the end I guess Doug took a gamble on waiting hoping for the premiership golden season ticket egg. He lost the gamble and championship season ticket sales will be lost because of it.
There’s no doubt to me demand now will be quite a lot lower than when the bandwagon was really rolling a few weeks back. Human nature.

Your choice, there are many who are equally frustrated, but will be more than happy to hang on.
Fair point. I’m looking forward to us competing against the clubs in our division. It will be great to see us host games against prem clubs as well. It will be a whole new experience seeing gifted footballers in action. The two non-city supporters I know bought because. 1. Neither of them saw their teams. 2. Opportunity to do something with their brother and other mate. 3) The gamble that they would see the Prem soon. They were under no illusions.Yep, not because they support Cov but because they were caught up in the emotion of potentially seeing big teams coming to the CBS.

Not if it was ala Psycho.Tim Fisher in the shower?
The new season doesn't start for 2 months, not a few weeks, I wish people would get a grip on realityHe’ll end up missing out on sales because right now an awful lot of city fans can’t face football.
They’ll think to themselves that they’ll wait a few weeks.
By then the new season will have started and they’ll just pay on the gate.
Should’ve had them up for sale last week when interest was high
