So what is the final total then ?


There are currently around 120 on sale in the upper and lower and  around 170 in Pontoon and too many to count in the Main . Considerably more then previously available.

How does it work from now ?
Can you still buy a ST? Because surely now tickets are on sale for the first home game etc it'll start to limit your options (I've just bought 4 tickets for the Wimbledon game for example)

Season tickets available for sale online now. Agree odd that the same seats are being sold for the first  three individual matches.

People have had ample time to get a season pass , if the seat has sold for any of the first few games then obviously you cant sit in it till it’s available, you either buy a different seat or sit somewhere else for a few games I guess

I think the point is that the seats which are suddenly available now haven’t been available earlier.

It seems like the overflow idea has backfired instead of having a limited extension of early bird prices after the renewal period.

There are prime seats available in all stands for walk ups, unlike last season, and seats which have not been available at any stage of the close season.

It works for me as there weren't any decent options for ST so thought I'd be in the Osmond again all season. However, I've got prime seats for opening games and will pounce on one as ST next summer.

Inherent tightness prevents me from buying a ST at full price after early bird. I'd rather pay as you go knowing I can miss games as needs be with no real penalty

Makes getting tickets to away games a lot trickier, though.

I’ve had a season ticket for something like 25 consecutive years, and for all the years of absolutely dismal value for money (never worse than in the 20/21 season), every ounce of blind loyalty was repaid by the privilege of being at those Notts County and Wrexham games last year.

Granted, those games don’t come along often, and season tickets naturally have less value when it comes to away games when there are 6,000 of you, but still, there are other benefits besides having a guaranteed seat at BP.

You could argue that having a bonus week or two of “early bird” prices might make sense at this point, but if there’s quiet confidence that next season will be a good one, it’s probably not in the club’s interest.

Could be a clever business move.  
Good seats and blocks of 2 or 3 will be snapped up at full match day price by the walk ups.
More revenue than having been sold as a ST !!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

if the 5400 figure is correct, then that means we've sold more than at the same date last season ( see above link).
At worst it compares very favourably with last year
