I think people might be put off by other things, but would hope not so by the cost.
Pricing wise and payment wise you would think it’s pretty reasonable!

 

I take it he's not one of us - he's pouring himself a cup of tea instead of a beer! Also walks straight past Keith without popping in for a pint.
Very nice video, but my OCD is in overdrive due to the positioning of his telly, and the way he sticks that sticker on the lampost!

 

Ha.

Booked a day off work and got to the ticket office at 11:45 last night, I was first in the queue when the shutters opened at noon, £200 in my hand from the wages I picked up from the wages clerk on Friday before I went for my fish and chips.

Back home now with a cup of tea, no sitting in a virtual queue for me - though they did ask me some weird questions about whether I wanted to pay by card, or setup a direct debit. All sounded a bit suspicious to me.

 

Winning games will help. Not a great deal else matters.

 

I've still 5 to renew which I will be doing so next week. I think we will see a surge to take us well passed 10k in the next 2 weeks

 

The damage has been done..









To my credit card.. I've bought mine.. but £4.50 booking fee.. my word..

 

I still think this is a bit silly of the club. They contacted everyone personally to say it was the 6th. Then swapped it to the 2nd. The current position is that even though the deadline has been "extended" from the 2nd to the 4th, they are relying on social media to inform people.

There are a good number who don't use social media who may be blissfully thinking that they can wait until the 6th.

Why not move it back to the 6th and avoid any possible issues?

 

Well my predictions of c8k to 9k was well and truly wrong!!

I'm very happy that I look a tit now...

Ps. Haven't bought mine yet, want to keep my money in my bank. Cheers for the financial tips @Fordy117

 

Adding the direct debit option was a good move but I think they've missed a trick not highlighting it more, particularly on the billboard advertisements to attract new people. I'd have gone all out to make a point that you can watch every home for 16/17 pound a month or whatever it is, which is cheaper than the cost of a one off ticket for one game. That should have been the USP and the headline grabber because anyone that is renewing already has all the info about paying in one go and knows what they need to do. An opportunity missed imo.

 

Renewed 6 today, girl on the phone said it had been manic & taken on more staff file the weekend. As off 17.45 said over 11,200 had sold

 

Its weird to see people bickering over ST figures.

 

To clear up a bit of confusion.
I wasn’t swapping to an already occupied seat.
I wanted to swap to a freely available to buy seat.
Due to a co@k up over seating a couple of seasons ago mine and daughters were row N seats 45 & 47 due to 46 being unavailable and my wife’s seat is row O seat 45(the row behind).
I changed my wife’s to seat 46 on my row as now that seat was available.
I expected to have to pay a tenner but they did it for nowt.
I would strongly suggest you e-mail them straight away and explain your situation as I’ve always found them to be really helpful.
The downside of saving a tenner is I obviously have to sit next to wife now.
Can’t have it all I suppose.

 

I passed comment a few weeks ago about a figure of 14,000 which one or two questioned, it was
more tongue-in-cheek than a serious quote but 12,000+ is a great effort, cheap tickets or not, these last 16 months or so have been demanding to say the least.

 

@Bronco for Chancellor!

 

I fear a small number will be fans no longer with us.

 

And this is EXACTLY the reason I'm hoping ifollow won't be available next season.

It's way too easy to decide it's too cold or too much of a rush or any other excuse you can imagine. Then slowly but surely crowds dwindle, the matchday experience worsens and before you know it either ifollow is propping up those clubs or quite simply they go bust.

 

Im not sure both can run concurrently if im honest particularly as season ticket options , as i dont see how the club could police potential missuse.

I'll use you as an example, whats to say you dont fancy that cold night in december so decide to watch via your ifollow stream then what is stopping you passing your season ticket to someone else? Similarly you attend a game, but have a ifollow pass, then you could pass the stream details onto a mate.

Either scenario 2 people watch the game for the price of one.

 

Personally I hope iFollow stays but as an extra charge on top of the season ticket. For the last couple of years I've paid to watch midweek games as I can't make them any more due to family commitments meaning that it's not practical to do the 80 mile each way drive. Also, this season I've been able to watch, and pay the club, for away games down south I would never have attended. It's a win-win in my book.
