901 if you'd bought yours?

[The Red Baron]

If that's an accurate number then I dare say there are a number of factors.

1. Not knowing which division we will be in.
2. Extension of the Early Bird and the possibility that there will be no price increase after next Monday anyway.
3. Match day prices not yet announced.

I've got mine though.

yep and probably a lot more had we not turned into an utter shambles

Rovers when we're winning aren't they???

[Monkcaster_Rover]

It's not all bad. I'm getting my first season ticket in a while after having a barren run of the past 5/6 years due to work etc. Up the reds.

Rovers when we're winning aren't they???

I don't agree with that "Rovers when we're winning" culture. Sure, there will be some however, I've not renewed mine (which I've done ever since we went into the conference).

But after the last 2 season where the performances have been a shambles, the football not entertaining, and the passion heavily diluted both on and off the field, I'm certainly not rushing to renew mine... If at all!!

The fact is it is a hell of a lot of money to shell out for people to watch League 2 football of a standard that I can watch on a Sunday at local field. I'm still Rovers through and through. But with a little 'un expected in October I'm finding it difficult to justify £360. I still might, don't get me wrong, but there's more to life than Rovers, especially when I've left nearly 80% of matches over the last 2-3 years feeling pissed off, deflated and not entertained.

Whoever in the ticket office told whoever is not honing to be very popular at the club.

[goalkick]

Should read going.

Make that 903, renewed this morning.. can't argue at 13 quid a game..

A season ticket is not really a lot of money though is it Jonnydog. Buy the ticket, support your team and enjoy the ride.

Didn't you sack off the pivotal game at Crewe to see a gig instead?

[LincsRover]

Truth is I think we'll be fighting for promotion next season; it won't be easy, it won't be pretty, but I think we'll do it. If we're up there from the start and winning games then we'll sell more seats. I've bought mine & my mums as usual as i believe the club needs support more than if we were flying high, but I'm in the privileged position that I can afford to. Not everyone can, and I don't blame them for not renewing, but, and I'm hoping above hope, that we do better next season then they'll be back! RTID!

How can you possibly say that? You've got no idea who is going to be playing for us.
Were allegedly getting rid of 8 players. We may bring 8 youth team players in or 8 from none league to replace them (couldn't be any worse than the crap we've had this season) so how you can think we'll be fighting for promotion I don't know.

I've bought my season ticket. 2 reasons: 1) I've just started working 9-5 Monday to Friday again and 2) I'm an old b*****d now so got it for £284. Otherwise they could have stuck it where the sun don't shine

[ravenrover]

And yet again Mr F throws in a hand grenade and everybody re-acts. "Someone" told me we had sold 10,000 tickets ................ now I admit that is utter bo!!ocks, I made ithat bit up.

900 - suspiciously round number, erring away from the too obvious 1000, but making a point of being less than the 4 figures. Meaningless thread.

Aye I did because I had plans not because we're rubbish, I probably won't make it tomorrow either.  It's a lot different to packing it off until we're good again like some are though. 

I'm daft mind, I've got my season ticket for next year and I already know I'll miss plenty of games.  I've no massive objection to people having other priorities that's fine.  But giving it up because we've been rubbish is a different matter.

The clue is in the words I use - "I think we'll be fighting for promotion" - I repeat "I think"! Maybe I should use "I hope" rather than "I think" and maybe I'll be completely wrong, but we all have opinions, and that, rather mundanely is why I said it! Yes, some of us have rose tinted glasses, others have sh*t tinted glasses - all I know us that mine smell nicer and give me hope rather than fill me with despair. Try it some time, it helps to lift the spirit and stops us being miserable tw*ts - well it does me anyway! But that's just my opinion as well, and what the f*ck do I know?!.

That meaningless you decided to comment on it.

I'm curious to see how many season tickets people think we will sell.

Any chance of someone translating that?

Why are you so curious?

We may well sell less, folks are pissed off with relegation.  We may get a boost of sales when we see what players we bring in, or if we win our first few games.

Yes low attendances will be disappointing, however it is what it is.  No point trying to fight reality or make a big issue out of it.

Go along and enjoy the game, if you can afford to, and if you want to (that's to anyone not just you) - and if you don't go for whatever reason, that's fine too - the world will keep on spinning!

Well to me it matters. Not least because it will dictate the kind of budget we have for next season.

How can someone make a positive prediction? God forbid
Not knowing who is going to be playing for us doesn't matter when it comes to you and your son making end of the world predictions

A very contradictive post

Bit of a coo that, then.
