just a quick thread about season ticket holders.
Last season due to the cheap deal we had alot of new season ticket holders. Most, if not all of them were extremely dissapointed with the football on display and certainly around me some stopped coming way before the end of the season.
Just wondered how many of the new season ticket holders around you came back this season?
The people either side of me have - now they could have been season ticket holders for years and just moved seats but they werent there any of the previous 5 seasons I've been in my seat.
Angry shouty man and his crew of McGorvern haters havent come back which in my opinion is certainly a good thing.
back to the future young ginger dave is still there but not the actual ginger dave, most dissapointing.
I must admit after a good few years of having about 5 'regulars' sat up by me for years its nice to have a few more. More came back than I expected in truth.

The Anti-Mcgovern crew aren't there! Awesome. My mates still sit in the same space i think, should mean when i do see a game it will be in relative peace. To answer your question, the fact season ticket sales are down tells its own story really. A few of the new converts may have stayed, but not many i would imagine

I returned last season after a break of many years (the King years) and renewed again. I moved my seat as I couldn't stand the miserable sod sat next to me. Had nobody next door but the next seat along was a very attractive young lady!! Result.

In my row there are 7 I recognise from last year, plus the 2 guys in front of me and various other faces I seem to remember dotted about.

In our area there are 5 that have renewed in front and 3 in front of them. Only one missing from last season I think.

Two to the left of us aren't there, however people may renew late thus not keeping the same seats, move next to friends etc. so its hard to tell.

I have been a season ticket holder for past 3 years, but decided not to renew this year. I knew I would miss a minimum of three games so decided to pick and choose my games this year - saying that, I was really hoping for a big deal to be put in place for the townend e.g. £150 tickets to pack it out, but that didnt happen so now i have to queue up for my ticket like the other mongs.

How good would that have been?? Something for the suits to think about for next year I hope.

As someone cleverer than me pointed out on here once (I think), it's unlikely that they'll want the townend packed out until they can improve the facilities. There's just not the potential there to make extra sales on food and drink on a packed out townend as there is if you moved all those people into the DRS or the Arkells, just due to lack of space and burger outlets and no bar.
