I have had no renewal request yet !!! Are you using that as a reason not to renew? No just asking if renewal packs are being posted .Honestly not sure just yet but have a while yet to see who we might sign .I usually nip down at book at the ticket office.

Don’t think any of us have received a renewal pack. When you go onto the Town website and sign in , the system recognises what season card price is applicable to you. For those who didn’t claim a refund for last season it’s £249 , for example. The club are expecting us all to renew online.

Im going to renew, but i`ve made the decision to get one at the end of june when the time limit to reclaim you`re existing seat runs out, reason why is i`d like more assurances about wether we`ll be able to go to games or not, and if so will it be limited numbers, if we dont get any assurances/info etc i`ll still probably get one, as it happens i haven`t had any request to renew either.

Sounds like the club need to clarify the renewal pack situation. Maybe loads of people are waiting to receive one?

I've renewed and I'm looking forward to meeting up with mates for a beer before the match. Whether we actually go to the game might depend on how we're playing. If it's anything like it's been this year I'll probably stay in the pub.

I'm more than happy to wait til after June 30th & nearer the start of the season as that will give us time to assess the Covid situation & potential squad strength. I'm more than happy to "risk" my current seats as my boys would prefer to sit a bit closer to the pitch anyway.

A season ticket at Town last season was 249, at Halifax it was 299. Only saying!

Got ours. Sales are very, very poor. We need something to stimulate an interest in next season. DTS has better pull his finger out. You know that for sure? What sort of figure has been mentioned, if you know? I have said I’m doing nothing til the end of June and have some idea what the club’s intentions are. Plenty more said that and then judging from recent posts have folded like a deck of cards. Based on that, I was thinking sales probably going ok. Would also like to know if the club are somewhat surprised by a lack of take up, which they really shouldn’t be given the shit show we’ve endured the last 3 seasons together with nobody knowing where we’re going with Covid. Just over 2k

I guess Covid will also be playing a part as nobody really knows what is around the next corner but being linked with players of the calibre of Tom Lees is hardly going to excite the fans and have them rushing to renew.

Because despite everything, I’m dying to get back to watch my club and I’m so enthusiastic that I’ve already renewed my Season Cards. Not interested in benefits or incentives and wanted to get it done and out of the way. Obviously, by the sounds of it, I’m in the minority .

I think Bromby is waiting to watch the Euros,and then cherry pick all the exciting talent. Sorry my mistake I meant he's waiting to watch the Eurovision.

Not surprising if ticket numbers are shocking, the clubs actions and performance (mostly due to Hoyle) are unacceptable. That isn’t warped by a couple of seasons in the premier league and expecting to walk the league either.
Basic logic, investment and desire to progress are needed
People will show their face when the club shows some ambition.

Exactly. Pretty sure we had something like 18k season ticket holders after a dreadful season in the Prem. But last season was so, so poor. Build it and they will come.

Not interested in benefits or incentives and wanted to get it done and out of the way. Obviously, by the sounds of it, I’m in the minority . I don't really get it to be honest! The most in advance of a season ticket deadline I've *ever* paid is 3 days. Its a product you're guaranteed to be able to buy at a certain date, your seat is going nowhere, the price won't move...why pay early, it doesn't make the season start earlier1 To be honest, with the price guaranteed even further, I probably won't renew until into August...(I don't care what particular seat I get - which I recognise might not be the norm - about 10 years back I moved away from where I've always sat with mates, cos my lad couldn't see down the other end of the ground when people were stood up - we went on a tour of the stadium for 2 or 3 years, before ending up where we are now (although he's not been for the 2 seasons since going to Uni and joining a sports team that plays on a Saturday)...more than happy to go on another little tour within the stand I now prefer. *This* season I bought a season ticket the day before the season kicked off! I'd actually decided not to bother but then I watched the pre-season games on Youtube and figured I could watch a crappy videod season after all!

I'd actually decided not to bother but then I watched the pre-season games on Youtube and figured I could watch a crappy videod season after all! I’m with you on this. Like overton I’m looking forward to getting back into the ground and getting back to normal but I really don’t see the point in parting with my cash until the very last minute. So much can happen in 2 months to people on a personal level never mind all the other shit going on at the moment. If that doesn’t help the club with their planning then they should offer further discounts such as 10 quid off if you renew in April, 5 quid in May or discounts in the club shop.

I'd actually decided not to bother but then I watched the pre-season games on Youtube and figured I could watch a crappy videod season after all! You have a different view which is fine. Unlike you, I’ve sat in the same seat and amongst the same people for more than 10 years ( previously sat in a different seat) Part of my enjoyment of going to a game is to have banter and a laugh with the people around me so I always renew before any deadline to make sure I have my same seat. Unless you plan to pay by credit card , I fail to see what you are losing by paying now from a financial point of view. I’d rather get it out of the way so I know it’s dealt with. I prefer to take a positive approach and not listen to the doom and gloom merchants - if I can’t attend still , I’ll just have to watch on iFollow like last season.

Just over 2k I expect most of the 11,000 who renewed last season on the back of having a price freeze for three years will carry on with the saving they will make. I said like many people I would wait to see what division we where in before renewing and have now renewed, as I expect most others will do the same. I think we will shift 14-15k for the start of the season.

Have you decided to not get one still as I can see from a lot of your posts you seem to have had enough.

I hope you are right on the tickets....... im only going by those i play cricket with / see out and about, many of whom are saying no chance! As you say time will tell mate.

I may be daft as a brush but even after all my moaning on here this season, saying I won’t get one blah,blah, blah, I just always end up getting one. It’s in my blood, got both my kids to be season ticket holders from 5 years old, and two of my Grandsons, who where born in Leeds to support the blue and white. Already looking forward to next season and renewed hope!!

I will still pop in now and again I expect if I don't see something of a renaissance over the summer.

If our early signings are of the calibre of last summer / January just gone, that will probably make the minds up of many fans. There just needs to be some statement of intent from the club that they are at least trying to compete in the top half of the division. Another near guaranteed season of struggle will not be palatable to the masses.

I have watched Town for over 40 years and to be honest for a lot of that time being in the bottom half of the Championship was near the top end of my expectations. I used to look up to team like Ipswich, solid Championship sides, gates of 12000/14000 and say that will do me. Our recent history suggests that where we are now is in line with realistic expectations whether we like it or not.

Was angry as hell towards the end of last season. It's gone, release list is good and I've pinned hopes on a good window. Got the lads theirs and mine. Can't be as shit surely
