Season ticket sales- good news for those looking to move seats!

Plenty of space even in central blocks in canton and ninian for 279 for adults.

Most of canton was sold out last season. All 4 central blocks were sold out. Lots on half way line of ninian available also.

Good move for anyone still looking to move seats anyway!

So does it seem that Season Ticket sales are down compared to this point last season?

It's hard to see why they would be up in fairness.

Judging by the seating map (available for anyone to see) sales look pretty awful.

Sales ahead of last season about 10200 currently

Your (and some others) strategy appears to be - ignore all the available information from the club and other sources stating categorically that sales are going well and actually ahead of last year at the same stage and instead make up your own figures and give the impression that fans are deserting in their droves. Why ?

Yes that would be acceptable for a City and support base of 1m.

Well considering all the bullshit a season ticket base of 14500 would probably give us crowds of around 19k again

I think we should be getting more but I think given the crap goings on its not bad

The question is after this initial boost in season ticket sales ......which is a welcome surprise .....are we going to sell many more than the 11000 by the start of the season ?

I know we usually do ,and judging by daily sales (400 ish) I reckon 14,000 is attainable, not sure if the figure includes corporate?

Season ticket holders are the lifeblood of the club , I am amazed so many have been sold and they deserve a big hand 🖐

I sincerely hope we get a decent manager in and he can get some decent signings as that's got to be good going forward

Why are you so amazed - where I sit in the ground while there is a despondency about what's going on not one was even contemplating not renewing and I know two friends neither full on city fans are buying tickets - one to come with his friends and one to come with us - ones from Wolverhampton and ones is from North Wales

Sometimes it might come across as this board being the barometer of the mood of the club and it's not

I suspect the board is made up of a handful of prolific posters and others who dip in and out

Just my humble opinion of course

This message board is but a tiny sample [including myself] of the overall support the club has, week in ,week out. Some of the most prolific posters on here haven't been to a City match in years, maybe never. There's always a tendency to focus on the negative, which is understandable but I'm slowly getting a bit of positivity about the coming season. Me and Vince have one thing in common - we don't want another season like the last two.

On the one hand, you say there is a despondency among the people you know about what is happening at the club. On the other, you cite season ticket sales as an indicator that this board does not match the mood of the fanbase. You sound a bit confused to me.

I’d be willing to bet that almost all of the people you regard as being overly negative are season ticket holders who have already renewed. Pretty much all of my friends who are season ticket holders believe the club is currently in a terrible mess, but all have renewed. It’s not a vote of confidence in the club. It’s just what they do.

I've renewed. It's what I do.

Thought about not doing so but it's a club I still want to be part of. As bonkers as it might be.

Yes, that's how it is for me. I am anticipating another season of crap football, trying to avoid relegation, but I'll be there

Yeah maybe I didn't word as well as I could - what I meant was people aren't consumed by the state of the club they recognise it's a mess but still crack on and support the club - as you say it what we do - I didn't even think about not renewing - I've been following the club too long to think I have any influence on the running of the club - I've put up with shit sides hooliganism red shirts debt etc etc but still renew without a single thought

There are some posters on here and they can be prolific posters who take every opportuntiy to have a fig at the club and will turn the most innocuous thread into a dig at the club - I don't know if they go to games or not but it is all a little depressing on here to be honest hence why I don't post much or come on here much

That's all 👍

I am not sure I know any posters on here personally I may or may not - certainly not any who use their proper names so I couldn't comment on their attendance at games

As for the forthcoming season then like you I am excited and can't wait to get back to watching games but then I'm always excited for the start of the season - blind faith really rather than any evidence base

👍

One thing the club have got right for years is season ticket pricing. Season tickets now may even cheaper than when we were at ninian park.

Its 279 for adults. Ive got a feeling the grange end was 299 or 319 at ninian park?

You only need to attend 10 or 11 games out of the 23 to get your money back with a season ticket so anyone who is thinking of going at all should get one. Plus eligibility for away games etc....

With the new TV deal you may find yourself shopping , mowing , DIY quite a lot on Saturday afternoons.

Not renewing didn’t enter my head. It’s going to be a strong league and I’m hoping we can compete. Again, there is no evidence of this I can see beyond my wishful thinking but if you haven’t got that you may as well go to B&Q every week.

That really is fantastic value isn’t it , and to break even after 11 games really demonstrates this.

If I was marketing the remaining sales target set by the club, I’d focus on this bit, they would probably shift 4/5,000 more than the current 11,000 plus figure.

I think where they have missed a trick is the up front costs, perhaps they could arrange an instalment based payment method and tap into the student fan base.

A bit of positivity - over 11000 sold by this morning, so thats actually nearly 1000 sold in the last 24 hours.

Only if the 11k figure is actually true.

On Weds morning there were 10,847 tickets left for sale on the site, this morning there is 10,508. So according to the seat map we've sold 339 STs in 48 hours.

Is there a list somewhere showing how many we have sold each season?

It was around 14500 start of last season

I hope the club don't get complacent , get a decent manager in and tan funds some quality out of contract signings

I take my hat off to the season ticket holders I think the club are extremely lucky so many have supported them given the shambles on and off the pitch

Ok so I guess we would expect a bit less than that this time - 13000?
