Regardless of the numbers, i sincerely hope he was dragged through the rinser. Anything less than more sales than last season is not good enough. I maintain they got the whole thing wrong again, Be very interesting how many supporters attend now than attended pre-venkys, and how many are replacements for those who have walked away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything less than that is a complete failure. It's not even a ridiculous amount to expect to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't really matter when the figures are released. It matters what the figures are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given we only finished the meeting about 8.30.pm, that’s a bit harsh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All depends how much they are when I'm ready to renew around July time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyblue Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I presume due to the dreadful sales post hike 1 they’ve now knocked any more rises on the head as it was originally going to be post Friday’s claim your seat deadline (though it’s now Monday and you can still claim it).

I changed seats and both were showing unavailable when I checked 30 mins after payment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you were a season ticket holder last season, and you choose to renew, but change to a different seat, two seats are marked as unavailable when only one has been sold. I thought that might be the case. Is there any chance you could keep an eye on your old seat and see if it becomes available again? Or send me your old seat number in a private message, and I'll keep an eye on it? It basically means that the "new" season tickets sold will be a mixture of both new season ticket holders and existing season ticket holders that changed seats.

Mattyblue Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Think we all just need the ticket office to re-open tomorrow as I imagine they’ll finally actually update the map to show non renewed seats… so they can put us all out our misery 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyblue Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 We sold 8.6k last summer, I thought he was predicting in that letter to Glen that we were on for 1.5k/2k on top of that? Though I’d be delighted to hit said 8.6k at this stage… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyblue Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I initially said there was no chance we’d beat last season’s *total* figure of 9.3k, I didn’t realise at first that he was talking about last summer only - but yes I still don’t think we’ll get to that 8.6k either (though I’d take it after another shambolic sales window - how sad is being happy enough with 8.6k by the way). Yes, in Glen’s letter he was making downright ridiculous claims of 1.5k/2k on top of that 8.6k - so 10 to 10.5k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggested the other day that some considering renewing their season ticket might just be waiting until they're ready to put the money together. Sounds like we've had one example of that, above. I think quite a few could be in the same position because I would be surprised if a third didn't renew. I'd have expected that if Mowbray had stayed on! Think there's a bit more hope and excitement this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyblue Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 (edited) I think we’ll crawl to c8k but to end up c1k behind the still piss poor figure we ended last season with after the best league position in a decade says the pricing is still miles off.
