    Another season and another ridiculously obsessed thread on season ticket sales.
    £6.50 a game for adults and we are a one club city with a population of over half a million. Im not sure the numbers are at all impressive.

    And better marketing. Old pointy shoes would have been all over it.

    And not forgetting Rishi Sunak's 20% skim off the top!

    Average take at VP reflecting the Chancellor's share and the price distribution between the various groups is around £110 per ST.

    What that means in practice, selling 10,000 ST'S split between adults, students, kids etc will raise around £1.1 mill.

    Personally think the club would rather have the season ticket money in the bank rather than walk ups on match day. It’s guaranteed even at cheap prices then. You can’t budget for walk ups. And who’s to say fans will be allowed back up the amount you’re quoting?
    the club knows they are getting money in for something now which they don’t really know when they can offer the full product.
    We should be shouting from the rooftops about this deadline. It’s hardly anywhere at the minute

    About 21 minutes in, discussion about about season ticket prices, MacAnthony talking sense as usual.
    To quote him, 'Do want cheap football or championship football'.

    Being on the cusp of it is definitely not the same as having to manage the club in the Championship. If you remember, their inability to finance a club in the Championship was one of the reasons ML & JR decided to sell up.

    To make the point and I've posted this before, here's a graph of the wages paid in the Championship ...

    Championship Wages 2018-19.jpg

    This is nearly 2 years old and I suspect since then a Championship club's wages bill has increased. It puts into context our £1.5m salary cap and shows what we'd be upagainst in the Championship and should provoke some thought on how much we'd have to find to close the gap and not drag the club into insolvency. It's one of the reasons why Championship STs are 2 or 3 or even 4 times what we pay.

    If I owned a div 1 club today I would make sure that we wouldn't get promoted to the championship however much I was worth, it would need a team of wealthy folk with money to burn to make it work...

    They've provided a constant stream of reminders.

    It's a bit annoying that it's a code for every match though.

    Thats not bad at all. If we get a busy few days , leading up to the end of ticket sales, we might reach close to the 10000 mark. Which would be in my opinion brilliant

    I think the club , are just covering there back. Can you imagine the outcry on here, if they said you will be in by the begining of October and it didn't happen.

    They aren't measuring it in that way. They are more looking at how well people follow the distancing, how the flow of people works, incoming and outgoing. Are people complying with instructions etc.
