Cruyff Turn Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 It’s probably right that folk don’t renew until CL is gone. I think someone worked it out that it’s cost season ticket holders something like £37 quid per goal this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridge of Djoum Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Identical thread started last season. The boy claiming we'd struggle to shift 10k. He made himself look so foolish with his backtracking and sheer denial of facts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOak88 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Season Ticket sales will be about the same as they have been. Probably 13k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amadjambo Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I will be renewing, like most I suspect. But I can’t watch another season of this. Despite shelling out £500 for my ST I can see me missing quite a few games if things on the park don’t improve. It’s just not fun or enjoyable at the moment.

Bridge of Djoum Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 As usual the standard of signings will be the significant factor in selling season tickets. There are other factors of course but signings stimulate the excitement and hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kila Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) Even during Cathro ST sales were persistent I think our core support has grown, but no managerial change before next season will be a big test for it Edited April 20, 2019 by kila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queensferryjambo Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I have renewed already but do know people who are saying they won't unless there is change. I don't know if they are serious or just pissed off after today. I would think sales will stay roughly the same as other years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilnunb Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Was pretty surprised there wasn't a drop this season tbh but think the new stand was still bringing a bit of an appeal. Will certainly be interesting to see how sales are this summer. The amount of midweek games are becoming a real issue for me personally as it means I either take time off work and lose money or shift my rota. Sometimes come away wondering if its been worth it. ?

JamboGraham Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I can understand a post like this, especially given what we are seeing most weeks on the park, but for most season ticket holders going to the matches is simply what they do. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we see a fall of perhaps around a few hundred but for most of these it will actually be as a result of changing circumstances and current performances bringing a lack of desire to prioritise football in these new circumstances.

Cut-off for renewal is in about ten days. 80-85% of season tickets sales done by then. Which signings do you think we will announce in next ten days?

A more significant factor in st sales is the amount of cash saved by regular attendees in terms of st price v walk up price. For platinum seats it’s £500 for season ticket, walk -up price for the expected 19 games is over £700. Add in priority for tickets for cup finals etc and there’s your main reason why people renew.

I'd be renewing anyway but, to sway the undecided they'll need to announce either CL stepping down or one or two decent signings. We'll be nowhere near this seasons numbers IMO if we don't do one or t'other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 We (nephew and I) haven't renewed. If we stumble on like today to the end of the season, timidly lose the final/get thrashed and still CL is in the job then I'm not really sure we will. Starting to feel the same reluctance/resentment I do when handing over the dough for the TV license. Having said that, I'll probably still end up renewing with a heavy sigh and a shrug of the shoulders. Good sense and logic flies out the window when it comes to HMFC.

Don't think I could take another year of the utter garbage we've been watching recently . Everything is wrong , recruitment, ability , application, coaching , game management it goes on and on . Craig is a master of pulling the odd great result out the hat to protect his tenure Think it's time for a change and the only way Ann is listening is through season ticket sales and income I'm afraid . We might change our mind i suppose as it's on our blood this club but right now I've had it with the footballing side . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned you because I was wondering what your prediction for this years sales would be after your 10k disaster last year. That’s all. Fair enough. You know, I'm not sure. I gave up last year because of the eye bleeding football and ST sales were down. This year, more fans will do the same but, how many? I don't know. What is clear though is that, in order to restrict OF fans, as Hibs and Killie have done, and to generate more corporate revenue we will need a complete re-think on the football side. The removal of Levein and all his coaches. There may well be a behind the scenes role for him but whether or not he would accept that, who knows.

The Doc Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 It’s not helpful recalling last seasons predictions on here.
