New purchases ? I just looked and I went as far as choosing a seat, and I've already got mine. Maybe people not planning to renew their current seat and have just got a new one .

I didn't know that was a option, I thought if you wanted to move your seat you had to wait until, April 24 when you can swap your seats.

Only guessing as I obviously didn't complete the purchase . I think the previously unsold seats might be the ones available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the club FAQs... MOVING SEATS I have a 2023/24 Season Ticket but I want to choose a different seat for the 2024/25 season, when can I do this? When Season Tickets go on sale on Monday, March 18th you will be able to see all available seats within the stadium. If the seat you wish to move to is available at this point, we recommend you select and purchase the new seat and not renew your current seat. If the seat you wish to move to isn’t available, we recommend you renew your current seat. Once the Renew Your Seat deadline on Tuesday, April 23rd (12pm) has passed, there may be further seats that become available. These will only be available from the Move Your Seat period starting at 10am Wednesday, April 24th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe people not planning to renew their current seat and have just got a new one . I’ve bought a season ticket for E28 in the Dolman next season and will just let my old seat in W15 lapse . The original e-mails FAQ’s advised that and it worked fine . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea I’d imagine the fact they’re publicising it would mean they’re happy. Last year there were plenty of things coming out with how many City season tickets sold, funnily enough not seen anything like that yet 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They 100% do read this forum so they will be expecting a large purchase of ST's by this time next week because that's what many have said they will do. The danger is that Jon and the Geordie think that everything is then rosy in the garden and it's a vindication of how they have acted and how they can continue to act. It most certainly isn't and they will need to work very hard next season to get fans onside and prevent a far larger and damaging exodus occurring at that point. They are certainly in the last chance saloon with me, that's for sure. 9 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of them post as well, you can tell who they are as their budget doesn't stretch to helping out with a measly £5 towards this forum! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The moment they sacked the popular saloon manager and appointed a novice barman in his place the last chance saloon lost it's charm and rapidly begun to empty with people contemplating other forms of 'entertainment'. Many fans will have already decided they are not coming back for another session in a saloon with no atmosphere and where the beer's gone right off. I still think it'll be in the thousands. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time next week one of us will be right. No gloating though!!! It will be interesting to see the drop off, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t wait for the swap your seat date, I simply bought a seat that didn’t have a ST holder in it this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 A couple of comparative landmarks from last year. 2023 *15th March 2023- Prices announced *20th March 2023- Go on Sale to the relevant categories *27th March- General Sale April 25th 2023 was the date that 10k landmark was reported.. 2024 *13th March 2024- Prices announced *18th March 2024- Go on sale to the relevant categories *26th April 2024- General Sale Last year there were 36 days between sale to the relevant categories and 10k being announced. So far we are 29 days and counting between the first day of Sale. Onky searched it briefly but the 12k thing, was it missing a decimal point. Seriously I don't think they are going so well.

Will you have a better view of the ref’s performance from your new seat / be in shouting range for the ref to hear your critique? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 The next email has come out. Usual caveat, this will be scheduled communication and not sent because things aren’t going well but the text isn’t dripping with “join all the others who have renewed” and seems more acceptance of “we accept a lot aren’t renewing” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely! My view (moving from Dolman to Lansdown) is slightly less central & a little bit lower down. I’m moving with 4 others, who are used to my rants, but I’ll be interested to see how others react.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price jump to escape the Family stand is eye watering considering there’s nothing available in the South Stand. And the price jump is even worse considering the impact on kick off times by the new tv deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
