Question is, could we deal with 1400 sales in a week if required ? I'd have to doubt it - as the spread wouldn't be even.

Cue complaints from those who have waited until late in the day and are then surprised if there are huge queues.

 Question is how many times can you insert cue/queue or a diminuitive of cucumber into a sentence?

There's no way we'll even come close now. Was hoping we'd be at about 5,000 by now for the late rush. Is the ticket office open on Sunday? It should be to allow more time to sell. Anyway it's obvious the people of Swindon don't care so oh well.

like phil s said if you can,t afford it put it on a card,there are a few cards out there that offer cashback,o% for a year and other gimmicks.if you get a card with 0% for a year just pay what you would spend on footie each month you will be quids in.i did post on here about a month ago about an  american express nectar card wich gives back 5000 points when you spend £200 in the first month thats £25 in real money if you apply now you might just get it in time.Im still waiting for the last minute rush as i,ve still got to get my 4 tickets--heres hoping.

I have just paid 722 Euro on 4 return flights to come over and watch 3 home Swindon matches, Colchester, Leeds and Huddersfield. I was supposed to be going to the Millwall game as well but the bloody Police have moved the game to the day I go on Holiday to Ireland! I was tempted to buy a Season Ticket but with working in Bangalore for 2 months next year I am not going to get to enough matches to make it worth my while I don't think.

Really can't wait for the season to start now!!

Thanks Dave after 38 years as a fan I'm scum - please pick me up at Penzance every other Saturday at say 8am and I'll get one - plus will you pay the £140 for the chopper !

Very sad that sales are so low - AF & friends have dug deep - it's a crying shame that they cannot get more support.  People forget so easily we could have been in Luton's position. FFS it's only about 4.5 times filling up your Mondeo (I think) - unleaded 150p + here !

Some people can't afford to do it in a couple of hits. A lot of people can't get credit cards.

If the people who couldn't get a season ticket turn up to the majority of games, does it really matter?

Agreed Sie Pie...alot of fans dont care about savin a few quid....get the team winning and they will spend there dosh,i think the club have done well to sell nearly 5,000 considering the shit they have dished up on and off the pitch the last ten years...people like us will always follow the Town...its the new people to the town theyve got to tap into....get into the championship and we would sell 5,000 in a fortnight.....unfortunatly lge 2 footy just dosnt sell whatever the price.

And those that do probably have. But those of us that have to take into account travel costs etc, will pick and choose a mix of home and away games depending on finances, meaning a season ticket isn't worthwhile.

Not aimed at you, but some people on here need to take their fucking heads out of their holier (sp) than thou arses.
