Re: Season ticket collection
I would imagine tickets will be posted out (to those that have requested postage) today. The remaining tickets are moving down to the shop in Carlton Lanes for collection.

Thanks
Re: Season ticket collection
OT a little
As we're all aware many fans can't make every game through no fault of their own, be it work or family commitments
Perhaps a little late in the day for this term but how about the following
Instead of a season ticket a voucher booklet which contains say 5-10 tickets/passes
This way the club could budget better
Forecast proactively further ahead
Negotiate stronger

Re: Season ticket collection
I think buy buying a ST you save the equivalent of 4 games. Basically you pay, say £225 for 14 games which is the match day price of 10 games. I don't think the club could do better than that to be honest.
Re: Season ticket collection
That's not my point Tigerade
My point is
Even with the best will in the world it's not physically possible or financial sense to buy a full season ticket - even though you bleed Amber and Black
However - a half season ticket (if you want to dress it as that)
Still get value for money
Gives the club more stability financially
Easier to do day to day business

Re: Season ticket collection
It also means people that do buy a season ticket may not commit and may buy half a ST anyway, meaning club lose money.ERG2012 wrote:That's not my point Tigerade

It isn't worth it and damages the club more.

Re: Season ticket collection
But there maybe be 100 people who would buy a half season ticket at say 110/120 quid because they can only make half the home games due to work/holidays/other commitments, but wont folk out 250 quid for a full season ticket because it would be wasted money and games missed due to what I've put above.
If a half season ticket as say 6 home game of your chose, then its down to you which games you chose to see.
Similar to my situation, I can only make 3/4 home games per season now a days, but would buy a half season ticket.
Lots of people are in this situation, so the club lose out when half season tickets will be paid for up front.

Re: Season ticket collection
i understand that everyone cant make every game but if its not worth buying a season ticket then just pay on gate to see the games you can get to. i dont see what the problem is and dont know why the club should need to do a half season ticket.

Re: Season ticket collection
If that were to happen the games should be split into 3 catergories and get 2 games from eachold cas lass wrote:But there maybe be 100 people who would buy a half season ticket at say 110/120 quid because they can only make half the home games due to work/holidays/other commitments, but wont folk out 250 quid for a full season ticket because it would be wasted money and games missed due to what I've put above.

But as I've pointed out, the club would LOSE money from people who would ordinarily buy a full ST but a bit undecided to do so or not. A half-season ticket would give them an option of not committing to every game meaning the club loses out on £100 from a load of ST holders.
If they lose 500 full ST holders who turn to half-season ticket holders at say £150, they are £50k down.
They would need to sell 333 half-season ticket holders just to recoup that before making any additional money.

no way will i buy a full ticket full price when i only go to 3/4 games per season. Times that by another 100 or so. There are people out there in that situation.
Re: Season ticket collection
If you can only make 3/4 games surely it makes more sense to pay on the gate?

Other people who can make 6/7 games it would benefit.

Re: Season ticket collection
