Not as important this season as the balance of the Bogle deal is making the balance sheet look much healthier than in previous years. I think your prediction is about right though.

Few people on Twitter saying we'd sold 2800 in total at close of play today - not sure how reliable though.

For me being realistic 2,800 is a very good amount if it's true.

2800 would be a brilliant total when considering that near enough no effort has been put into trying to entice new STHs. Imagine how many we'd have with attractive deals like flexible packages for shift workers etc.

We used to do flexible deals six packs and Bob's bakers Dozen they worked well for  exiles and shift workers.
Can't do them now as only Bridge Mac stand left for general sale.

Good contribution to the debate until you get to the bit on bold.

The difference is when you did that  you where desperate for support and we are not..

No we weren't desperate for support. Performances and league position will determine your level of support whatever league you are in. The schemes we ran with 6 pack and 12 pack tickets worked but with the season we had last time around if you havnt got a season ticket at Sincil Bank for this season it's going to be difficult to get in especially when we have to give up the Stacy West end for away fans. We realise we are on the crest of a wave at the moment and know things can change very quickly but the club and the fans have to enjoy it while we can. I'm not sure what other clubs have been selling season ticket wise but I think if Town have sold in excess of 2500 that's a pretty decent effort and will be above average for League 2.

We're just jealous of the ST sales TC. Personally I think 2500 is unexpected but disappointing (shite and a failure to build on last year).

What your club need to think about in the rush to cash-in/maximise on success is what happens to those diehards who followed you through thin and thin who bought the 6/12 packs. What happens if the bubble bursts and the March Violets fade away and some of the hard core have been marginalised?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

6/12 packs a good idea but I'd like to see some sort of offer where you can put a deposit on your seat for the season (for example let's say £100). This guarantees this seat is yours up until three hours before kick off on matchday and you have to buy your match ticket for each game but get a discount out of your deposit. If you don't take up your ticket (or activate it online or by phone) then the seat is freed up for general sale. It keeps a bit of extra money in and means people who might not make every game can have their preferred seat with mates or whatever.


Edit: appreciate this appears very close to a season ticket but it needs fine tuning a bit.
