Season Tickets

[BushBlade]

My guess is in addition to season tickets doing well the membership scheme might do quite well next season as for a few key games members will snap up all spare tickets leaving none for general sale. Be a member or risk missing out. Any thoughts ?

Yes. Anyone with foresight will realise that if we continue to get better, it's going to get harder and harder to get tickets so you may as well start building up your loyalty points now, just in case.

That's when I'd hope we'd commence the extension to the Kop. Its needed.

You think we'll average over 30,000 in the next season or so?

Given the construction costs, we would surely be needing to lose out on at least 4-5,000 punters each match to make it cost effective would we not?
I just don't see it every week while in the Championship, regardless of our performances.

Yep

Ours was claimed that it was sold out but my view from the BL upper saw seats scattered mostly on the family stand that were empty. In fact I counted 10 seats all next to each other towards the BL end.

Possibly ST holders that for one reason or another could not go with it being daft o clock on a Sunday

Its going to be needed if we get back to the Prem, given the increase we've steadily seen to our fan base in League One which will swell to 25,000 ish next season and then if we get back to the Prem it will be needed. The question is when is the right time to extend. Upon promotion to the Prem might take a few years and the current planning permission will expire if we leave it many years.

 

[JordoBlade]

How many we shifted so far?

Potentially daft question, but can the extension be done without closing the full Kop?
If not, you're going to be 12,000 odd seats down while the work is carried out.

investing in the youth has paid off id like us to continue with that. Our fan base grows and grows despite one good season in 10?

I'm sure I remember them saying they the kop would remain open while the extension was built.

Not sure mate, but I would guess with health and safety we'd lose some of the capacity. If we started as soon as promotion would be confirmed to the premier league in May/late April then that leaves us 4 months to make a considerable start.

North stand had big holes in it too, they are MASSIVE frauds. I back us next season to top their average.

Maybe we will but to be honest, I aint that bothered if we do or don't. Its like the little man syndrome. Y'know, the guy who brags that his ooja is bigger than everyone else's.

I just want to beat them at everything, little man syndrome is not correct, pure hate for the cunts is.

Agreed.
