    It is to draw punters in whereas we are offering 12 months interest free in house so not sure what extra customers it would attract

    I'd say It's purely all in house, hence no apr, it's not as if the club are having to pay up front for a product, so for the good of sales may aswell offer 0% apr to generate more sales, it's a simply speculate to accumalate scenario.

    Woah! Off sale on the 10th! That seems pretty early. I'm sure there'll be plenty of floating voters who won't even consider purchasing until nearer the start of next season.
    If on-the-day prices are at the £25 a pop for an adult, then unless we're right up near the top, I think there'll be a few extra empty seats.

    they haven’t said if they are going back on sale or not, just that they will be taken off sale

    They will go back on sale and there will be empty seats, for for various reasons this season.

    Firstly those fallen away ST holders from the heady L1 days are not going to be wooed back by L2 football, regardless of the new manager and a few signings before the season starts. Secondly, there will be a middling minority who are not prepared to part with their money without guarantee of some regular attendance at VP; that may be a way off the season's start.

    Realistically looking at the same numbers as last season, but fingers crossed and with a fair wind 2-3k more.

    I'll be surprised if they sell even just a 1000 more, damage is too set in for many and add covid uncertainty to that leaves us with just 8k st holders would be my guess.

    Disagree.

    Today's expected announcement that Boris will increase capacity for outdoor events and sport will encourage those fans who may have still been deliberating about renewing.

    I am going for an optimistic final total of the region of 12000 sales.

    I think momentum will pick up toward end of this month after some signings have been announced and payday

    Really. He's announcing that but not opening up the country?

    I thought he was just making an exception for the Euro's at Wembley and maybe weddings.

    According to various newspaper journalist sources. We shall see this evening when your favourite politician makes his announcement I suppose

    I hope you're wrong but have some sympathy with your view. If the rumours about today's announcement by the PM on extending Covid restrictions are true, that will introduce some more uncertainty. It will also take it beyond the club's 10 July cut-off. I imagine that will have to be extended but maybe only for the subscription option.

    Perhaps more relevant, I'm expecting some bounce back once Adams is here and a few new recruits are announced.

    It would make more sense to extend it for full upfront only then they don't get mass cancellations if a third wave kills us all.

    In one sense that's correct but Sparks seems intent of moving all STs onto the subscription model so it would be an opportunity to reinforce that.

    I have confidence we'll be back in the stadia shortly after the start of the season once the vaccination programme has been completed with all adults having been double jabbed and any new wave having been brought under control.

    Adams makes a difference to some of those currently a season ticket holder that now want to renew. I am not convinced he gets many out of their chair if not a season ticket holder. He's not an exciting appointment but the right one because Sparks wants him.

    The new recruits will have to be something special also. If we sell 11k+ plus then we have done well.

    If we sell 11,000+ STs, that would be remarkable imo from where we are.

    For once I was trying to instill some optimism, at least for my self, in suggesting a couple of thousand more than last season. Well it was worth a go!

    Not sure what the current restrictions mean and if still in place in August, will we be back to Claret and Amber approach with a 8-9k ST sale, or can we all squeeze in?

    I am confident we will all be allowed back in August.

    If restrictions are lifted on the 19th that’s three weeks before the season starts should be able to house al season ticket holders

    For the Euro Final its up to 45k in a 90k stadium. If they let 90k in then I will agree with you but at 50% then I don't believe that they will allow every club to have 100% possible attendance every match.

    I just can't see it.

    Not if restrictions are lifted then there will be no limits. We will just have to wait and see

    even at 50% capacity , thats still 12000 thousand + at valley parade. Should be ample for season ticket holders.
