rn9013 Posted 12 June 2017 Share Posted 12 June 2017 So either a) There are less than 23,000 ST's or b) The club are not very good with percentages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that Maths is correct we only have 16,000 season ticket holders. I would think its more likely the club just aren't honest and held some back. But I am cynical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing has been fishy from start to finish for me. I fully expected (along with a lot of others that renewals would be nowhere near the levels they are talking about). Then they report over a 97% up take and now are saying less than 400 available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I requested that an internal investigation into the figures reported was carried out..... She just forwarded my email straight to Jim and he denied everything.

rn9013 Posted 12 June 2017 Share Posted 12 June 2017 Jim has asked me to provide feedback once the membership details are released.....I think I will definitely mention this-the owners have been great but ticketing is one area that I feel has been grossly mismanaged for the last couple of years. I think the TO is lacking transparency and it is rubbing a lot of members up the wrong way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could be suspicious that the club are refraining from selling more season tickets as it's more profitable selling face value tickets on a match to match basis in the knowledge they will sell out now.

StanSP Posted 12 June 2017 Share Posted 12 June 2017 Quote I am a Gold Member, how will my chances of being a Season Ticket Holder be affected by the new membership? As Gold Member during the 2016/17 season, you will still remain as first priority for any available Season Tickets for the 2017/18 season. If you cannot commit to a Season Ticket despite being given the chance, you will still hold a place high on the list for purchasing any available Season Tickets for the 2018/19 season. This was in the Membership Brochure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says a lot about how the whole ticket office is run that people think he is the best of bad bunch. Not sure jim being useless in your opinion has any bearing on the ticket office. If you think the ticket office is badly run then i suggest you direct your emails to [email protected] as he's the ticket office manager. Jim can try to help but is tied by the restraints placed on his job. He's essentially the public face of the club but still has to clear any resolutions with powers above him and check that tickets are available to do so wherever that is a solution.
