Half Season Tickets

[S64 Blade]

If not thought of already, the club should seriously consider offering half season tickets for what will hopefully be the final promotion push. Particularly if we carry on in good form up until Christmas.

They'll be missing a huge trick in my book not to put half season tickets on sale.

Likely to be the case, but no details have been forthcoming as yet.

It was a half season ticket that tempted me back in to the regular purchase of a full season ticket after I lapsed for a few years. They're a great idea.

if they had half-season ticket's last season Barney would have saved a few bob...

My mate bought a half season ticket a few years back, said he hated leaving at half time though, he did say on the plus side the traffic was always much lighter on the way home.

£215 for the 12 home games left.

A whopping 9p saving on matchday prices.

Gerrum snapped up Blades.

So actually cheaper as a member to buy single tickets, good job with that pricing

Plus member (as I am) gets a free cat "B" game after paying for 5 games.

 

[jt64]

Would think that anyone who's a member that would buy these will have cashed in the free game by Christmas.

Didn't factor in that some of the games may be classed as cat A to be fair

That's brilliant news for some. I am 60 in December so I'll get my half season ticket on the Shoreham for £150.

Shoreham old farts, we are here
Oh Oh, Oh Oh
Shoreham old farts, we are here
Oh Oh, Oh Oh
Shoreham old farts, we are here
Respect your women and don't drink beer
Because we'd have to go for at least 5 pisses before half time
Oh Oh, Oh Oh Oh, Oh Oh

Could have been a great opportunity to add a few thousand to the average and get the Lane packed for what might be an exciting run-in. But no. United decide to revert to default and try ripping off their fans once again. For once, United...don't miss an open goal.

I think they've been generally good with season ticket pricing.

Not particularly paid attention to the half season ticket prices, but surely you'd expect some kind of "Late to the party" tax?

It's literally cheaper for members to buy tickets for the remaining matches individually than buy a half season ticket. What on earth is the point of even offering them? Who in their right mind would buy one?

Someone who wants to ensure priority for the remaining matches without the hassle of ordering a ticket every other week? Or get renewal price next season?

They seem like flimsy reasons at best. People are going to look at the price first and realise there is no incentive whatsoever to buy these things. Such a shame as it would have been a great opportunity to add to the crowds here, but can't exactly see them being snapped up now. I don't think I really have to explain why people should expect a little discount if they buy what is essentially a 12-match package.

I guess there should be a bit of an incentive price wise, but that's the risk you take with us starting to look well.

Why are they flimsy reasons? I don't buy my season ticket based purely on price (though it should be discounted on walk ups), I buy it because I go to the Lane every week, don't want to have to buy a ticket every time and would like to keep my seat.
