Does anyone know how many season tickets have been sold to date?

Re: Season tickets

Just over 14,000

At the moment less than last season

Doesn’t make sense!

I haven't renewed and I've watched the city for 40 odd years. Modern day football is just not for me, I find it boring. Look at the world cup final, sums it up really.

Perhaps with lawlor staying,and if kellyman comes back, and if we start spending some bigger money fans will see we are looking at not just trying to survive, and may decide it will be a more optimistic season .

Maybe, but It is reasonable you might have checked for an answer to the question you asked before creating a separate thread :thumbup:

Got mine and my two boys irrelevant of who comes in or out. Wtf has happened to todays football fans with the thinking "if we spend loads of money on signings and certain players don't leave then I'll get a season ticket" :shock:

Glory fans in my opinion and not what being a life long fan is about in my opinion, it makes my toes curle in the cringe position. Totally baffles me :bluescarf:

Totally agree with this.

Yeah me too. I'd still buy a season ticket if we were in the conference southern league or whatever it's called. It's a huge part of mine and my son's life and we can't wait for the season to start.

My thoughts exactly.
Whichever league we are in, people want to see a winning team.

Most of last season was great as we played better football, scored plenty of goals and won a big percentage of matches played.

But the relegation of the previous season is still fresh in our minds.
We need to invest in a few quality players at Championship level to avoid lapsing to below par football at the higher level.
Many want to see some quality arrive before committing to the price of a season ticket.
I am one of those.

That's poor after last season. We should be selling 17000 minimum.
What else is there to do? If you are a fan you are a fan.
I understand money is tight for many but they offer finance deals.
C'mon lads and lasses, get down there!!! :bluebird:

I think we only have 18k full on supporters .

There's another 5k who jump on success.

Perhaps another 3k appearing if we make play offs or cup run .

Cardiff currently only have a regular support of less than 20,000.
In my opinion, this figure would only increase if we had sustained success and not just one good season.
Obviously if we reached the Premiership we would pretty much sell out, but many of those extra supporters would turn up to see top level football and not just because it's Cardiff City.
The two times we reached the Premiership, we were relegated straight away and the attendance immediately dropped off.
It's been many years since we had sustained success where we better the previous seasons progress year on year.
As a result, our regular support remains limited.

Agree

But not every Cardiff City follower is a 'die hard' fan. Many are life long followers only.
A percentage of occasional attendees will often return if the squad is strong and the team is playing well.
Unfortunately, we will never be like a small minority such as Newcastle or Man Utd who have a massive following no matter how their team is performing.
This will always be the case at Cardiff.

Check Newcastle’s attendances before Keegan arrived in ‘92.

Weren't all attendances pretty low in the 80s/90s ?

Not a great deal of success since then, but superb attendances.
Even United had crowds under 50,000 at times before the Premiership, but rarely under 70,000 for many years since extending Old Trafford.

Bit of a weird comment. They're attendances have been huge since then.

I don't really get the point of what you're saying.
