Bought a season ticket today. Brother got one as well, so that's 2 more to the total.

That's a great outcome. When you think of the level we were at the last time we hit that sort of number it's amazing.


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.

Great achievement from the Trust and to everyone who bought one!

A good foundation for support throughout the coming season, backed up by a good performance/win yesterday. Only 6 sleeps to go   UTMM!!

astonishing from the supporters.
just think what some inventive marketing,strategic pricing and a genuine "operation" may have acheived.

Opportunity wasted IMO.

Completely agree, even price increases, an underwhelming pre season campaign and numerous own goals from the club couldn't stop the interest from supporters. I honestly think this has happened without any real influence from the Trust and the club, in fact I would have to say that the club's input since Wembley had a detrimental effect on numbers. Shame really because operation promotion was such a triumph for the trust.

Have you any idea how much work went into Operation Promotion though? Genuine question, not a criticism. There's a reason why that level of campaign wsn't replicated this summer!

It must have been tons and it made a massive difference to everyone last season. I just find it strange that there were a few announcements and talk of interesting initiatives for some fans that never materialised.
Do you think the club could have done more with pricing and promotions to really drive season ticket sales?

That's not for me to say, I'm not a club employee and hindsight is a wonderful thing!
