YouLetYourClubDie Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 2 hours ago, scott herbertson said: I've made this point last couple of years - I think the club should at least sell only the Roseburn until this sells out and open the other secitions on thew eek before the first game for individual game tickets allowing the Main, Gorgie and wheatfield to continue to sell as seasons until that point That way we could continue the dot counts! Absolutely. It just seems far too early ro be stopping sales given the extra money involved in additional season ticket sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get a few cracking players in from now till the end of the window especially. They know that season ticket sales have all but dried up and budgeted for 13K and will be very close to that figure. It's another way of getting some extra cash in early rather than waiting until the season starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the exception of "online", you can still purchase a season ticket. I agree with your sentiment to restrict County sales to Roseburn until 3rd August which I think was the original "cut off" date to purchase a season ticket. It looks like a decision has been taken to open up individual match tickets due to recent sporadic purchase record of season tickets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last count of STs sold in H was 93, so there are now 17 more seats for sale for individual matches than there were for STs. In comparison there looks to be 149 sold in section J, while my last ST count was 131 sold, so 18 more sold for the RC game. I wonder if what we are seeing is that some ST holders in H (particularly in the singing section) have moved seats into J for the RC game.

Brick Tamland Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I think it's a great way to get cash in early, I've purchased 12 tickets for games that family and friends who will be about for and who will be sitting directly in front of me so we can celebrate together ☺️. Those folk who want a season ticket are likely to have purchased by now anyway and it might now push those thinking about getting a season ticket to either purchase one now or choose the games they want to go to but pay up front for it, not really a lose situation for the club.

Blacky87 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Apologies if this is covered in an earlier page. I now have the plastic card in my wallet detailing my name and seat. Have had it for four weeks now. Nothing on e-ticketing suggests I even paid for a seat. Does anyone have an answer as to what the hell is going on? 😂 I'm fully aware things take time and I'm not one to phone the club to hound them, as kick off is weeks away and if it lets me into the stadium then that's a winner.

It's not a like for like count either as there are no longer any seats for sale (or all seats sold) in the front sections of G (previously 59) and N (8). My figures indicated a Season Ticket count of 12,427 on Monday (22 July) just before individual match tickets went on general sale. My count was running 304 behind the club's count when Ann Budge reported sales of 12,500 on 8 July, so you can add at least 304 to the 12,427 figure. I would guess around 12,800 at this stage.

Thanks for that It’s less of a “guess” than nearly anyone else can make. If accurate those are good figures as I’d think there will be a few people, especially individuals, who get their ticket last minute.

If we've sold 12850 say, I think it would be perfectly normal and sensible when giving an interview for a chair to round that up to 13k.
