That's not as bad as I thought it was going to be at one point, not sure they will sell many new ones. Still a bit down on what I was hoping for (13,000) but still yep not too bad.

Think a more important stat is it's around 3000 up on the last year in the CCC, which shows that 3000 pLOLastics have got into the habit of going regularly and renewed. That's a good thing, there was always going to be a signficant amount that didn't bother renewing.

add to that the perception that for most games a season ticket will not be necesary to get you entry any more

Think we'll pick up a few more by end of month - many people will have hung on to pay day knowing there would be availability and the option to change seat.

I think the easier availability is going to be a big factor. I think we'll hit 12000 without too many issues. I'd hoped for 14000, but that was a little on the ambitious side.

I'll certainly be trying to get to more games... although a fair few may be away.

Given that's only another 238 I suspect you are right !!!

14,000 is definitely achieveable

Any guess on how many new season ticket applicants there are? Last year was there a wait list to get season tickets?

we stopped at 18K as that was the limit allowed by the prem to leave space for on the day/away fans
and there were extra who didnt get one

id guess there will be another 2-3 thousand applicants for new tickets who couldnt get them last year etc

leaving us in a much more healthy than previous years we were down here
but im always a bit optimistic

That's great! If we get half of those to buy (possible given that over half the current season ticket holders renewed) then we are over 13,000 with 14,000 an outside shot.

I don't get where people get the 2000-3000 new applicants who didn't get a season ticket last year from. The number was no way that high, I know of at least 5 people who got a ticket who hadn't had a member card before then and got it on general sale. I would be surprised if we sell more than 1500-2000 more tickets from people who firstly haven't renewed yet, and new applicants.

Anyone else remember when 12,000 was a great crowd?

Now we're gonna get that in STHs after a season of dissapointment, poor quality and relegation.
