UPDATED - SEASON TICKET SALES - OFFICIAL THREAD

Bolton have sold over 15,000 as a comparison

Bolton have sold over 15,000 as a comparison

Embarrassing to us

Bolton have sold over 15,000 as a comparison

Got to be a fair comparison? As in do they offer massive discount like Bradford does? If not then it's well done to them great support.....

Bolton season tickets are more expensive, they are also surrounded by big clubs within Lancashire.

Joff, I’m very disappointed in our Sales.

For a one club city of 400,000 - 495,000 and a surrounding area of a further 1.1m they are not that good.

I’d expect 14,000 by the start of the season

Totally agree Joff.

And Our prices are good value

Are you really surprised? Look at how our club has been run for the last few years. I’m surprised we’ve sold more than 5000 to be honest. Club is a shambles with no heart or soul. It’s a chore to go down there these days. People have just lost interest.

And how badly Bolton, Huddersfield and Bradford were run badly for years?

Pompey the same

I totally agree it’s a Shambles, BUT ITS STILL OUR CLUB THROUGH THE GOOD / BAD TIMES

One big difference. They never had their identity stripped away from them. I’ve never felt the same towards the club since. Until Tan has gone, that won’t change.

Lame excuses time after time after time. If we were top on the premier league we would be selling out every home and most away games

Of course we would. That’s when you attract the day trippers that Havnt got a deep bond with the club. Fact is Tan has pushed thousands of proper supporters away due to his antics. Many won’t return until hes gone.

Many supporters have known nothing but Vincent Tan as club owner and a significant proportion of supporters have only seen us play in blue , so that correlation you have mentioned is negligible. The season ticket sales at the moment are nothing special.

A loyal fan doesn’t need excuses.

Not renewing because of Tan is a pathetic excuse and basically means you're letting him win.

I'll be there whoever the owner is and whether we're in the Premier League or non league.

We support the club/team, not the regime.

Harsh to say 10k is embarrassing imo. That’s already more than 17 clubs managed last season and there’s still over 2 months until the season starts. 16k would be the 3rd best supported team last season which should be easily achievable with walk ups and away fans. We’ll shift a few thousand more season tickets when they go back up on sale, I’m getting 3 myself

I predict we’ll start the season off with crowds around the 18k/19k mark

Or are you letting him win by turning up? We have a difference in opinions which is fine. I respect yours, please respect mine.

Re-read my comment and using the word pathetic was probably a bit harsh.

But I still don't believe a boycott would either work or ever even happen.

We have enough loyal fans - something I'm pleased about.

Had this argument many times under Tan? a clubs identity is the name and the fans who identity themselves with it... we support team when it wears away kit or even 3rd kit there not Blue? Yes some didn't like what tan did and walked away that's their perogative many more didn't... there are and have been far worse owners than Tan in football but the fans still turn up... as Annis says its our club "not tans" even if it resembles a rudderless boat..... when tan goes new owner takes over the club still belongs to the fans....

If Cardiff have sold in excess of 10,000 season tickets, I think that's a healthy figure at this stage.
Many fans have been totally dejected by the poor results in recent years and especially following the relegation; so I don't think that figure is too bad.

Maybe, following the appointment of a manager and a few fresh players, I think another couple of thousand more could be sold.
I expect home attendances to be around 15,000 to start off with.
This should increase with good results; Alternatively, will reduce if we are bottom half of the table.

I can't see us getting crowds of 18 or 19,000 as we were in the Championship unless we are in the top six. That is surely wishful thinking!

Season ticket sales are sort of a general election, a referendum on the club.

60% of will always vote the same way or in our case, renew. Then the 40% floating voters who may go one way or another.

10K is great if another 4K renew next week or the next 2 months, otherwise 11k wouldn't be great.

The world has changed, Sky will show a fair few games, then there is CCFC TV or the dodgysticks and matchday tickets.

All these managerial shenanigans aren't helping

Little old Barnsley have sold 8,630, Plymouth have sold 11,000 with 6,000 on a waiting list Reading have sold 8,000, as a comparison.To be clear I’m delighted that we have sold over 10,300 but it’s not that great at the moment. A. Acceptable amount would be 14,000 by the time the season starts.

I think 10k is a terrific amount considering where the club is, and I don’t mean league.
We are a club in turmoil who quite frankly at this moment in time are a laughing stock.
We have just been relegated, an owner who hasn’t been to a game in years, no director of football or anyone high up with any shred of football knowledge, haven’t released our retained list and have no concrete pre season plan
We are a club at this moment in time who are desperately neglecting their fan base, no communication, plan or vision for the future.
If rumours are true we are about to appoint a manager who was in charge last season and it’s taken 60 days to happen

Fair play these Clubs have Struggled for years in the lower divisions.

Must be mad, 3 tickets secured for me, my daughter (both renewed) and my Dad (his 75th birthday present from me and my sister)

Roll on 1st weekend of August

There seems to be an issue between "loyal" fans and "occasional/casual" fans. I would say that most, if not all, who post on here are "loyal/staunch" fans. As such, we seem to judge others by our type and wonder why they have not committed by buying a season ticket?
A good majority of fans, however, are the occasional fans who will buy into the club as they see it. What they are seeing at the moment is a rudderless club with a disastrous season ahead.

Only my opinion.

I think that's a very valid opinion.

I've been a ST holder for around 25 years but still haven't renewed for next season. I know all the arguments about loyalty, supporting the club and not the regime, we've had far worse times etc BUT, the dire football, lack of atmosphere, zero board engagement of the past few seasons has worn me down to such an extent, I'm struggling to put my hand in my pocket yet again.

My fear is with the current shambles continuing, we could see back to back relegations. I really hope something might change at the top, but whilst ST sales are healthy, why would they care!

Apathy is the best word to describe Cardiff City. It stems from the top, the football management, the team, and ends up with the fans.
I opened the seating map this morning, found four seats, but still can't press buy until i see what the club is planning in the management front. If its another Morison appointment i'll buy match day tickets and watch a lot on the tv.

Both these are 100% me. I added to basket, but thought no for the reasons listed. Also close to 900 can be spent on better things for the family thstbwill actually excite us

The key word you've used there is excitement. That has been in scarce supply for several seasons to the extent now, where most games at the CCS followed the same dismal pattern, contributing to a flat atmosphere.
