Gigersaint Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 I have to wait for pay day on the 31st before I can get mine, there are probably a few more in my position too, end of the month and beginning of August could see lots more sold I reckon.

NickG Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 last season the top average attendances were Leeds 23k Leicester 20k Huddersfield 13k MK 10k Millwall 8k Guess most teams will bring a fair few to our ground, so if we sell the season tickets expected we should have decent crowds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huffton Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 Another one waiting for payday! Would it not be a better idea to hang on for a week before general sale to allow people who are renewing at the end of the month a decent chance to get their own seats? Ticket Office?

sotonjoe Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 I thought first time purchases could still be made now it was just that existing ticket holders had their old seasts on hold till August 1st?

The Yeoman of beds Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 Received mine today, but lucky to get it. The envelope was ripped down the side and lucky that the book was still in it. Why don't the club send out the tickets/season tickets in a more secure envelope. I have noticed before that it is pretty obvious what is in the envelope, think that there could be better ways of sending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed before that it is pretty obvious what is in the envelope, think that there could be better ways of sending. Mine didn't even get to me. I've had to contact the club and have a new one issued. I've decided to pick it up in person at the Hearts match. It should have come with the Ajax ticket. This ticket did arrive in a ripped, muddy envelope with a boot print on it. Heaven knows where the season ticket is! However, the club were excellent in replacing it, no hassles at all.

Sounds about right, actually. The tickets were free with season ticket renewals. I was sent 3, but could only use 2. I imagine 3,000+ of the tickets issued weren't used.

Saint Nobby Posted 22 July, 2009 Share Posted 22 July, 2009 I think the figure is a little disappointing. I let my season ticket go last year so I don't get the cheap renewal and work means I might not be able to get to as many games. A price somewhere between our price and the Bradford price would have been a no-brainer but I can't afford to buy a ticket (and one for my nipper) at these prices - it'll be pay per game. The thought of under 20,000 people in St Mary's fills me with fear - it's horrible, there is just no atmosphere - at least not enough to create a fortress! Maybe this Saturday's game will change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
