Title: Season Tickets/Half Season Tickets
Post by: Crispy on Monday, April 29, 2013, 14:33:23
Did the club sell any Half Season tickets for this season? Haven't kept up with any of that this season! And are there half season tickets avalible for next season does anybody know? Failing that how much is an Adults season ticket in the Town End (T2 - Just the the left of the tunnel as you look at it) for next season? I can't get on the offical site at work!

to answer your question, No. They didn't offer half season tickets, I can't remember the exact reason why but it was something to do with the season tickets being good value and not much uptake. That may change next season with a new board.

Re, next season, assuming you're an adult (physically anyway!!), it will be £350 for the town end, although you can spread cost over 9 months.

I don't remember them being offered, though I have the memory of a goldfish.

Sounds like the answer is no though...

"A key change is the closure of the Club Red scheme while half season tickets will not be offered"

Also while we're on it, did I hear rumours that non-ST holders will be offered a loyalty scheme of some kind to join somewhere... or am I making that up?

Bollocks. Thanks for that anyway. Was more interested in a half season ticket due to the fact that i'll possibly be able to attend games from January 2014. Might just take the hit and buy one just incase and let somebody else use it from August 2013 - Jan 2014!


Luke - For years Swindon have needed a Loyalty scheme for ST holders and non alike. Obviously the ST holders would get first priority but for the games like the Oxford league/Wimbledon league last season a lot of loyal fans who travel the length of the country week in week out missed out on tickets. Grade 1 ST > Grade 2 ST > Grade 3 ST > Grade 1 Non-ST and so on..

Are you still on a banning order? I wouldve thought they would check names and addresses for the holder, so that might hold you back?

I could be wrong here mind

Yep, unbanned in Jan 2015 but can appeal Jan 2014 and fairly hopeful of the appeal being accepted. Good point though, I'll ask mummy to do it  :-[

I think I might give that one a try, saying that she had to pick me up from Barnet at 4:30am on a Wednesday morning the last time I went to watch Swindon and take me back the following week for court so I might have a do a bit more convincing  :(

You were actually going to apply in your own name before the ban was lifted?
