Season ticket sales

[Spencer_White]

Is the ticket office busy because people are picking up tickets? Or are they not updating the ticket counter?

Just seems busy but weve sold only about 100 in the last 2 weeks according to the ticket counter. Just seems odd.

They didn't update the tichet count from Monday -> Thursday (same number reported both days). I assume this is inaccurate and that our ticket counter is on the trip to Austria?!

Everyone in there apart from me and one other bloke who was there for a Pompey ticket were buying season tickets, usually 3 or 4 from what I could see/hear, and new ones not renewals. So I think it's more that the OS isn't being updated

4047- not looking good

still a thousand more than last year.

Surely we haven't sold just 20 odd in a week and a half.

I'm preaching to the converted, but if we aren't in and around 5K, which looks impossible, as a town and county we should hang our heads in shame. If Port Vale can achieve it (5k) with Premiership Stoke on the doorstep so should we be able to.

I despair. If that is the true support of the club we have found our level in the football pyramid on merit.

800, and my biggest fear is most of those will be fans that came to games ad hoc anyway. So the club will be worse off financial as ST's are cheaper than matchday tickets.

Port Vale have not sold 5k

??  They have over 6k season ticket holders according to their OS. I'd be suprised if over 1000 were freebies.

Anwho, there is quite a good thread (!) over on thisis about how Vale were flagging with not long to go and suddenly bang, 1200 in a week or so. Maybe all is not lost in at least the race to 5k if not 6?

They are pledges Batch will be very interesting to see how many of them actually purchase it aswell.

[Batch]

Oh , I see what you mean. I had assumed that 'pledges' entailed a financial commitment if 5k was reached, i.e. you had to leave a credit card number or cheque.

So how did it work. Did they just get people to write down their name and address with no commitment. That would be nuts, you'd probably have 1000 F Flintstones for a start.

[Don Rogers Shop]

Basically yeah and they still have not sent out the season tickets to fans who have paid yet either.

4,047 sold as of 9am this morning, according to the official site.

[michael]

I was maybe expecting more than that by now I think, not sure really.
