Season Tickets

Quoted from Mappers

Yeah i think earlybird was 5.5kish then 5.8 by August .

Will be interesting to see the total by the close of play today .

And the doubters thought we would struggle for 4k .

Dave left leg is quiet, Dave have you renewed ?

I thought it was 5.3k after early bird, 5.7k by start of season and ended up at 5.8k all told after a few more stragglers bought them after the season started and sears were difficult.

I could well be wrong tho on those numbers but it's as I recall it.

I which case (if I'm right) you'd think we would be ahead of last year at the end of today's sales?

Not had a season ticket since that clown Holloway took over.  Been too used to sitting in the middle of the lower Findus every year since the early 90s, and don't like behind the goal and main stand is just urgh with posts stuck in the way, so won't be getting one again.  If they ever decide to fill the corners I might be tempted though.

Just goes to show the Twitter doom mongers are in their minority. So many big claims of how season ticket sales would be dramatically down because we didn't sign a 20 goal striker in January and storm the league.

Yet here we are, with another high number of ST sales and a good start to the transfer window, off the back of our highest league finish in 16 odd years and our best FA Cup run in 89 years.

Football, eh.

I remember Fenty saying "You can't devalue the product!" in terms of lowering prices to get more people to the games.... well getting rid of Fenty did the opposite!

Cost of living is a massive issue with the worst of it yet to come. But Ive mentioned before £400 for circa 20 days out at the weekend, plus a tenner or so a game for a couple of pints, is a bargain. Unless you want to sit at home and watch Jeff Sterling’s replacement what else could you do for a day out that is cheaper? A walk in the Peaks would cost you that and more in petrol, lunch and beer.

On capacity, the key point for me continues to be the bunch of mates walk-ups who fancy going to the game, which we cannot cater for alot of Saturday games. It will be much more acute if we are doing well. I’m not sure whether these declare tickets sold or actual attendance like us, but we had more ST holders that Stockport last season and about the same as Lincoln, as 2 examples, but they averaged 2 k more than us at home. Away fan numbers will be some of that difference but most is our very low number of walk ups.

Been in club today to sort our tickets.. great service and a few people queuing reckon we will beat last seasons numbers..

A good total coming up.

I went in on Wednesday and it didn't look too busy but there had been a miracle. The TPE trains were only a few minutes late each way. They haven't normally turned up at all!

Great to see the staff again and it was nice to have a decent day out in Cleethorpes. The trains were so few unreliable last season that I was just getting a lift there and back rather than making a day of it. Also picked up a few away shirts at £10 apiece.

Over for all the home friendlies and hope to get to Boston too. Fleetwood probably a no-no due to a train strike.

Renewing my ST is a pleasure nowadays. I hated myself for doing it under the previous regime but I feel I have real skin in the game nowadays.

No I have not renewed I can’t face another season of watching town at home were we severely struggle to break teams down that have come for a point or nick an early goal.
I will stick to the away games using my colleagues ST who doesn’t travel.
All the best and UTM

I probably missed it somewhere but are those who bought the overflow seats included  in the current total or will they be added once allocated a seat?

Fair enough Dave hopefully you see some good away games , I might see you at one !


Every seat has gone in The Ponny and Findus , can't imagine after the new one's are allocated there will be a seat left .
