Season Ticket Renewals

[RiG]

Just simply wondering how the recession, relegation, decrease in ticket prices, opposition quality etc. is affecting (if at all) the fans desire to renew (or not) their season tickets. Not sure of any figures forthcoming from the club but if anyone has any that would be good to know.

Cheers.

[DornochCaley]

renewed mine a while back.

[martinskye]

Renewed mine, just wish we could have the tartan books back.

Might have been better making the question more general, by asking ALL fans and not just season ticket holders. Get an even closer reflection of the feeling among fans.

Out of interest, does anyone know what percentage of attendances are made up of season tix holders vs Pay at gate fans?

got mine a while back, arrived last week, disappointed to find that once again it doesn't cover any cup games.

At the very least a cis cup game voucher would be nice. 10% of some of the tat in the club shop isn't fantastic.

Well part of it is geared towards finding out whether renewals have been affected by relegation etc. If we are talking about all fans and renewals then that is what the "I am a new ST holder" option was for (based on not being one last year).

Re-newed mine, section G, Q, 118

Does anyone have a figure of how many have been sold for this season? Or how many are expected to be sold?

[arbroath2ict5]

We had 4 last season. Didn't manage every game and some of us managed a few. There were very few weeks when all the tickets were used.

This season, due to financial contsraints, we won't be renewing them all - maybe one or 2... The costs of travel and accommodation are too much now...

I have got 2 tickets again this season... 1 adult and 1 child... 1 thing worries me a bit though... Apart from the cover being a different colour... nothing on the season ticket itself differentiates between an adult and a childs ticket... last season i noticed several previously "child" seats being taken up by adults... therefore costing the club revenue...

My point is.... how does the club stop an adult using a childs season ticket?

[Guest]

My bairns tickets have Child on the cover and they are different colour so I would imagine that only a dyslexic colour blind turnstile operator would let an adult in on a kids ticket.

i renewed mine and bought the wife her first season ticket

[12th Man]

I've renewed mine but a few that sit around me haven't (they must be trying to tell me something)

More importantly though, these people haven't stopped being ICT fans overnight its just they will drip feed the cash to ICT at each game throughout the season instead of in one lump sum.

Sorry no offence meant, just a wee off the cuff quip. If you do suffer then download google chrome, it comes with a built in spell checker and has shown me how bad my spelling has been.

[Brian]

Renewed mine too

[Georgeios]

Thats ok GeorgeG, I use spell checkers at work and it will still see words spelt the same even if they are not in context, you do have a point all the same, some folk do use it as an excuse for being lazy all the same. no harm done.

[Kingsmills]

I believe that season ticket sales are about 20% down on last season which isn't bad considering the club's change of status.

[Yngwie]

A 20% drop doesn't sound too bad, until you factor in the % reduction in the price per season ticket as well.
