Season Tickets 16,000

Mon Apr 11, 2011 11:48 am

Season Ticket sales being taken up in numbers by our fantastic supporters.
We currently have near 16,000 season ticket holders including corporate seats, a number which is just under last year's figures with the deadline being ten days away.

The take up is still good and we expect another rush in and around the 18th of April when we take season tickets off sale.

Is this true??

26,828 Capacity less 2,828 = 24,000 less segregation of about 1000 (guess) so I reckon about 23K

But seen as we're getting promoted we'll have another 6K in the new seating :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

You haven`t allowed for the away fan space allocation.

The maximum season ticket availability is only about 20,000 after allowing for away fans section , segregation and the percentage that has to be kept back for sale for a match by match basis (not really "walk up" as can be sold before the day of the game).

We have sold 16,000 compared to 17,000 as at the start of the current season. I would think that we will pass last season`s total but , even if we don`t , I still think the numbers sold is remarkable considering how hard times are for a number of people financially at present.

Of course if (or should I say when) we get promoted this season , it is likely that every available season ticket will be sold (including a full take up of Premier Club seating).

that is pretty good, and im sure we will have sold over 17,000 by the time the deadline arrives! Great to see some positive news for City on and off the pitch lately! The feel good factor is back, this place is going to be buzzing when we grab that automatic promotion spot!!! :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
