On another social media platform someone who actually posts some good stuff reckons we’ve had around 1200 season ticket renewals.

Well under the original stated figures for how many would be allowed in but a change of circumstances means nobody will get in. I include myself in this but well done to everyone who gambled. A hefty sum to get not a lot from.

I guess when (if) the restrictions get lifted and they’ve worked out the weekly general sale amount there would be a strong chance of us selling out each week.

As well as the perceived COVID risk many people quite rightly so didn’t want to gamble with what is at the moment hard earned money.

Philip Day just said in his OS interview that our capacity will be around 2200 at most depending on seating bubbles so 1200 season tickets not bad really in the current climate


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

For some the risk of not getting in at all is too big, for others I still think the two week turn around to find the money was a big ask given the last 5 months.

I guess what it means is those who were on the fence or weren’t sure may be able to have that change of heart and purchase one.

Mine were purchased last week so hoping to be given my seat numbers etc this week; I am in a fortunate position where I can afford the ticket and am happy to pay it. For me, regardless of situation and regardless of my opinion on how the club is (badly) run, the thought of not having a ST was/is alien.

However, I do fully understand why some folk may not bother, much like the crowd funder. Did I agree with it? Not at all but if folk felt compelled to throw in some cash that’s their choice.

Anyway, safe trip for those of us travelling to Walsall today, remember, the car park directly outside of the ground doesn’t charge and the pub is a bit of a walk so give yourself plenty of time...

Cynically it could turn out quite well for the club, money for nothing in effect if the gates arent actually allowed to open or the season is curtailed again.

My credit card account now says GTFC has taken £255.......... on Sept 8th!

No email confirmation as yet from Club. As a sole exile, this process has been somewhat distant and difficult to track since posting off the form.
I take it that means no ballot was needed for any part of the ground.
I also anticipate that an update will come from the club re bubbles etc. later on.
Driving 70 miles to the ticket office might have been simpler !
I'm relaxed about when we actually get to attend matches and understand that trials have been suspended. I just hope that communication twixt club and fans can be more prompt when that day arrives.

I applied for a £255 concession ticket. Could have been an error on my part, although I don’t think so, but I see I’be been debited £374 and all he phones are not up and running to try and correct the mistake. Not very happy about this so far.
