Season Tickets

Quoted from 1mickylyons

Sales now around 4150 including corporate so well on track to top 5k again .In the present climate that's some serious show of faith in the new owners and the Club .Didn't someone once say this wouldn't happen  

Yeah, that’s an astonishing effort.

If we're exciting and competitive, which I think we will be this season, there will be no seats (or very limited option) for every home game.

Hopefully there's an improvement on the uptake of the release scheme too.  It would be a crying shame if we've hundreds of empty seats again on match-day when fans aren't able to buy tickets.

I would be interested to know how close we are to putting something in the empty corners.  I wonder if the club are seeing what demand is like in the early stages of the season before putting something in. (I've absolutely no idea how quickly something can be   5,000 ST's is great, but it really limits the walk-up options.

Pontoon capacity -1808 (gone you assume barring the odd seat )
Findus - 2808 (gone barring the odd seat )
Total -4616


Remaining
Main - 2277
But how many of that lot are non restricted after the season tickets are taken off ?

Quoted from Mappers

I think someone put online , they are going to have a period when they allocate the seats to people who are on the list - in the stand they want and ask them where they would like to sit and then give them the closest possible seats and offer a refund if the seat is not to their liking .

I suppose the problem is going to be if the Findus (or whatever it's called now and the Pontoon are oversubscribed (which I think may well end up being the case as you would assume people will not want to lose their seats and end up in The Main )

Then people on the reserve list will either have to go in the main or get a refund if they don't fancy it .

Pretty much this. If you go to book ST online and in the 'Overflow' area, it asks you to submit seat numbers that you would like. This is obviously in lieu of the fact a lot of seats are greyed out for existing ST but no-one behind the screen knows if they'll be renewed or not.

Between the 3rd and 10th July, the Club will be contacting folk in the overflow areas and looking at whether they desired seats are available. No doubt they'll let them know the closest thing if not the actual seats requested. If the seats the club can offer are suitable and you want them they'll simply issue you your passes and away you go. If there isn't anything that meets your needs then the club will refund you.

Its an interesting system to try and ensure everyone can benefit from the Early Bird discount but there is a scenario whereby some could get refunded and therefore subtract the final ST sold. Hopefully that won't be the case and everyone can be suitably accommodated as I am getting behind the idea that this could be a really good season for us,

It's good they moved to keep the discount alive for new STHs. The other option would have been to extend early bird for one week after STH renewal deadline. There has been a few prime real estate seats popping up so some may have told club they are not renewing already (well done them for letting club know so others can buy)

Yeah or moved ?

I moved to a less prime seat because i only make half the games and it was snapped up in a day or 2.  

I predict there won't be any matchday seats available in the Ponny or Findus by August .

There are around 16 seats available atm if anyone wants a single seat .

Jokes on him - I screenshotted it to show how negative he is at the end of the upcoming unbeaten season!

5231 close of play yesterday ,emailed the club .

The.Record.Goes.

That’s incredible if so, what with today being the last day AND pay day for many.

What is the record, 5,831? I seem to recall that included quite a few late stragglers into August after it dawned on people what ticket availability was actually like.

6,000 by the end of the day? It’s possible I’d not probable on the basis of that number. That would certainly stoke questions about extra capacity.
