Great news. The fan wishing we could have 32k next season is asking a bit much.Quote:

So with a total capacity of 10k we'll be able to have 7000 walk up fans.Quote:

Going to be interesting how many we sell.
We sold about 14000 last season, with very little chance of anyone getting in to a game. Also by August 7th it is likely that capacity will have been increased again, assuming the virus us still under control.Quote:

Season ticket holders always get first option on their seat the following season but those who took up the option of watching the homes games ‘free’ on City TV will obviously have to pay for next season, minus any unused credit carried forward. Those who didn't take that option and carried the whole amount forward to the next season, will get a credit of the full amount but those who had a refund will have to get in the queue as they no longer have a season ticket and will be unlikely to get one with restricted capacity.Quote:

The website refers to 20/21...Quote:

OK. So that confirms that no announcement has been made as yet regarding season ticket sales or prices for the 2021/2022 season. Wondered why I couldn't find it. Thanks. Club announced some time ago that over 13000 had been sold for 2020/2021, so assume last seasons total figure was around the 14000 mark.Quote:

It would be difficult to please every body. Mind you I maybe fewer tickets will be sold anyway, although I have mine unused from last season, wouldn't;t pay the £10 for streaming.
Ah. All these 20's and 21's !. So nothing about this season coming then.Quote:

I’m always a stander in the Canton by choice and will remain that way, but would be happy to anywhere whilst we are like this.
I'd be very surprised if we sold 20,000 STs. Around 10,000 is more realisticQuote:

You could pick your seat for the Wales gameQuote:

Apart from the obvious financial implications of this reduction it also means there is a greater chance of season tickets sold exceeding maximum permitted capacity. This then brings the nightmare of how you allocate tickets with the problems of how families sit together, who out of the family gets a ticket, how do you regulate whose turn it is, how do you cope with season ticket holders not online etc. Assuming the club are going to consult the Supporters Club and Trust about how this could be resolved, the outcome is going to be very interesting as keeping all the people happy all of the time seems unlikely.
We sold around 14000 last season, when there was no chance of getting in the stadium, so not quite sure why you think we would sell 4000 less next season. With regard to capacity, we could have a 50% limit (16500) and still maintain social distancing but outdoor events are much more likely to have rules relaxed further as it has been proved that transmission outdoors is much lower.Quote:
