Nearly 7,500 Season Tickets Sold

I was expecting much lower bearing in mind the Doom and Gloomers who only last week said we'd only sold 3000!

That was ages ago and a nobber made it up that we sold 3k ages after 3k was confirmed from the ticket office.

Good luck with that, I’ve tried sev times in the last hour and it won’t let me, all it allows me to do is buy available searto, not mine, and m pretty tech savvy. I’vE emailed the ticket office and I’ll call them tomorrow to sort it out

TBH that's what I was finding earlier on, but my teenage son has renewed so I'll get him to show me how he did it.

A good old fashioned phone call does the trick in ten minutes in my experience along with a good few people I know 👍

Its about 2,000 down on last season

Hardly a successful marketing campaign

Last season was 8k, but was 7500 at this time I think.

The club were confident they'd grow, but given the summer that won't have helped.

Plus we have the young adult price now.

Based on the planner it seems lots haven't yet renewed as well over 9k seats aren't available and many will be new, I'd want at least 8500 ST holders tbh.

Hopefully a big day tomorrow, but could do with that extension still.
 
Maybe they could do a ‘Special’ deal for all you special fans, who can’t pick up a phone and chose to wait until now to realise that they have left it until their final pay day, which happens to be one day after the deadline they knew about ages ago…

Maybe Simon could ring them all up individually to check on their personal financial circumstances and pay dates and arrange for an individual deal…. We could even deliver their tickets on a velvet cushion with a free packet of arse wipes 👍

Bloody hell I’ve already renewed otherwise I would have been well up for that if offered 😀

You jest but these type of people exist and sometimes you have to make things as easy as possible, if you want to maximise sales. Some won't have had the final chunk of money until this payday.

Try this…go to season ticket page, click on the little face symbol next to the basket, if it doesn’t bring up your renewal seat click on it one more time. In between my first and second click it momentarily said the redirecting to another platform but that only lasted 2 second, then my renewal seat option appeared. Hope this helps 😎

I don’t think it’s worth the extra effort…. It’s a case of ever decreasing circles tbh… in the end it’s starts costing you money to try and accommodate the dribs and drabs..

Far better to just adopt sound business strategy, invest in your product and not worry about the details or base your business plan on imaginary stuff and back of fag packet calculations.

Would have been better to just pick a deadline day after the known paydays, mines 28th, some are end of month some 1st or 2nd. Should have picked Monday the 4th, to me and others it makes sense.

Are people seriously saying they are not going to renew as the website is shite ? If true that’s the biggest load of shite I’ve ever heard.

No but it's making it more difficult than it should be, as people then have 1 day left to go down or ring up. It should just work online.

Nah.... There'd always be some dickheads who'd leave it too late and then blame everyone bar themselves.... Most people are paid on or just before the last day of the month....Those who aren't should have got their shit together and sorted it on the last payday.. Like I say, you're trying to make policies to account for stupidity and accommodate a tiny number of people, who will just pay the extra in any case.

The end of a Month is a nice clean deadline.... If you've not got it sorted by now, then you're not worth pissing around with IMHO, so tough shit pay the higher price for fannying around and not getting your shit together in good time.

Probably would but the club would also be showing its willing to try and help even if it would help some.

That I'm alright Jack attitude coming out again, maybe Phil was right 🙄

It's not pandering to some usless people its being as helpful as you can to people with many different circumstances in difficult financial times.

A nice clean deadline? Makes no difference if it was Monday to definitely include all paydays.

The club has already shown willing by giving folk an early bird option... If people are too stupid, lazy or disorganised to take advantage, then tough crapola.

It's not about me being "Alright Jack"... Anyone who wants a ticket has the same opportunity...

Course it's pandering to idiots... If you've not sorted yourself out by now and you want to pay the cheaper price, then you're an idiot (simple as).

Yes, A nice clean deadline... 4th of a month is unnecessarily messy and as I've said, we'd still; have the same number of idiots, who'd want it extending to accommodate the fact that they still get paid by cheque or some other bullshit.

You can fuck around forever with idiots.... As I said they're not worth the effort. We'd be better if they went and supported Preston and drained their finances instead TBH.
