Topper 123 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 Does anyone know the figure so far of sold season tickets,and have we passed 14000 ,if the club are happy with that are you as a city fan or could the club sell again in various ways.ie half season now,not in second half of season as usual because where is the logic if you can't sell the remainder of season ,how about batches of 6 games where you pay for 5 and get one free - get the idea come on let's try to fill Ashton gate CTID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted June 2, 2016 Admin Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 My personal opinion - they won't want to push to many more sales as that would mean opening the top tier then all of a sudden people would be trying to move their season ticket seats to the new upper tier Thought it interesting at Temple Meads the underpass is literally full of posters advertising season tickets for the rugby, with a new deadline - but NOT ONE promoting season tickets for the football ! Both sports will have the same problem, it will need to be priced correctly for the POTD supporters - that will make a huge difference to the actual match attendances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRERE Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I'm thinking about getting a season ticket but I don't have anyone to go with. Anyone gone by theirselves before , if so what is it like? To me it feels weird to go alone but at the same time I really want a season ticket this year. I had a season ticket when I was 10 for 5 or 6 seasons but haven't had one since.

I generally go alone as none of my friends are into football, I don't find it too bad tbh, I know my season ticket this year is near a few other posters, so hopefully this season despite going alone there might be 1 or 2 people to have a chat with at HT.

You're never alone at City, soon you will be chatting with City fans sat next to you, and years in they will have become good footy friends.

semblar Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I used to go alone before either of my boys were old enough and got on very good chatting terms with the fans around me. It was a real wrench to move last season (adding my youngest meant a move to the family corner) but I still bump into them on occasion in the concourse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Ian M Posted June 2, 2016 Admin Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 As for Season Ticket campaigns, we've done our promotional work towards securing ST renewals & new buys during the discounted period. I imagine our next push will be timed to take place when we have some new signings under our belt. Particularly if some of them are impressive signings.

steviestevieneville Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Even though I go/ meet up before with friends we are all split up around the ground and I've sat on my own for years. You naturally get chatting to people around you and bump into them at away games as well and chat. It's all good. Go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Often been on my own. Is more effort travelling and in pubs before the match than at AG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two main reasons, 1) my rugby buddy has been working hard to persuade me and finally managed it. 2) Bristol will be playing Bath,Exeter, and Gloucester...........'nuff said.. Looks like I'll be at AG almost every week next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get to know the people who sit around you and we have moved en-block from Atyeo to south Stand. Get a good group (as I'm sure you will) and you'll have a right laugh! Lots of people who I sit near go on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I'm not 100% sure. My rugby buddy reckoned I got a great deal and estimates the discount is 10%. He should know he was an accountant....... I did it over the phone and as I didn't know what the full price was I just paid what the guy said. He did say that the price included the discount. i just looked at the receipt. It is 10%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does feel a little odd initially but nothing like as weird as sitting in a restaurant on your own. You will soon get to know those sitting nearby and people are generally friendly once we all get past our British reserve! Don't let it stop you getting a season ticket if that is what you want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Ashton said there are 22,000 seats in that area. take away 3000 away fans and 500 segregation leaves 18,500. simple maths would suggest around 15,500 sold.

The 22,000 figure is already minus 500 for segregation. Minus 2,700 away allocation = 19,300 So that's 16,300 seats already sold for next season. I think 1,200 of those are hospitality, which would mean 15,100 season tickets sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Necromancer Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 City said its was just over 13,000 at the end of April and only about 800 have been sold since then, so id say around 14,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
