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.
I hope the newly available seats are of newbie STHs from the promotion campaign who missed too many games and thought better of it this year. If so, the club will make more money from those seats in walk up. But, yes, not being able to get away tickets is a huge downside for a non STHs. Watching County and Wrexham games on TV was brilliant but a poor substitute for being there. All relative though. One of my favourite games at BP was beating Shrewsbury to end the 25 game winless run. Felt like I'd paid my dues to celebrate that one. |

Then again, being a STH doesn’t necessarily mean you are assured of a ticket. |

It doesn’t, but aside from Brighton, in reality, even though we all expected a scramble for away tickets last year, it wasn’t too hard to get them. Even for games that sold out, tickets were generally available. Orient was a prime example, initially sold out but even on the day there were tickets being sold by folk so if you wanted one, you could get one. The whole idea of buying a ST to secure a seat on the off chance of going to BP is alien to me but I do get that for some, it’s worth the lay out of cash and provides some security knowing they’ve got a seat should they want it. |

Poojah alludes to it above but just what IF this turns into a long overdue promotion Season? The scramble for tickets next close Season will be mental and those already with a season ticket will have the very easy renewal option. Trust me folks we will have our best league campaign since 2006 and I think we will sneak in under the radar for top 7.Town are going up

Agreed. This won’t be one to miss. Didn’t think twice about renewing mine. |

I hope you are right but then again you did say that when you was the Manager and look how that turned out. |

Long as the remaining budget isn't blown on another Jimmy Gilligan it'll be right |

Very much in this camp. Over the last 24 months there has been an increased demand on the tickets for home games, be it season tickets or game-by-game tickets. A successful and entertaining season, which I think we're in for, will absolutely light a bonfire underneath that increased interest and demand. I've a feeling we're going to start the season like a house on fire and available tickets will be like rocking horse excrement. |

A season tickets also puts you in the front seat for a key cup game - home or away.
