As if to further prove the point of how we will fare budget wise in League One, if we didn't sell another ticket we would still have the 10th highest attendance in the division next season based on this year.
We will easily sell 12,000 season tickets in my view which would put us 4th. By the time you add in the fact Sunderland and Pompey could both be promoted and Bradford have gone down, plus the fan bases at Bolton and Rotherham as well as Lincoln and the other promoted sizes, it's extremely likely we may have THE biggest average attendance in League One next year.
Only definite team to beat us will be Sunderland if they miss out on promotion.
For all the doom and gloom, remember so many clubs in that division have tiny budgets. Even with us losing £7m a year we will have a massive budget. 14 of the 24 clubs average gate this season is lower than the season tickets we have sold TODAY! |  |

I'm not sure we'll easily sell 12k, that's more than a 10% uplift in sales off the back of relegation. |  |

Love the optimism but the club have said £9m loss which needs to be added on to what we were losing anyway which is something like £6m a year?
That's a lot of money, even with a few departures and contracts being downgraded. Our budget certainly won't be 'massive' but hopefully it will be a cut above most clubs down there. |  |

Presumably that’s just the number of Season Ticket holders who currently pay by direct debit though?
400 signups is the positive part of that tally - that number needs to be close to 3,000 if we are going to start hitting these targeted amounts. |  | | |

There's talk that the relegation wage cut for players is pretty hefty and they are by far our biggest expense. The cuts to their wages will account for quite a chunk of the drop in turnover. | |

I doubt we'll very many more at all.
The chances of hitting any of the discount targets are negligible. After all, have we ever hit any of the previous ones? |  |

Not really that interested in crowd statistics...income ...and what other teams are doing etc .etc
Just want to see a decent football team being built and better football. It has been complete garbage for too long under Evans. | | | |

Would have thought a fair few DD purchasers will cancel over the coming weeks — even if it's almost too much effort to bother unless you really can't afford it. Still, if they keep spinning this positively it might have the impact they are after. | |

A big caveat on those figures.
They're making a presumption in those figures that nobody on Direct Debit for 18-19 will cancel for 19-20 and including them in figures by default and there will certainly be some who do cancel. [Post edited 23 Apr 2019 18:19]

Agreed.
The club need to be careful about putting too much ‘spin’ on that initial figure. They could end up looking very silly if it all goes wrong! |  | | |

So have over 2500 current season ticket holders cancelled/not renewed or have they not been included yet as the haven’t paid? Can’t be right, I haven’t come across a single person not renewing. Actually there was one but he’s now changed his mind! | |

Not everyone pays by direct debit I would suggest! | | | |

Yes, because instead of hanging around Norwich decided to fall straight through the division - from Premier League to third tier in two seasons. | |

That's the difference. 3 years after being in the prem i'm sure we had nearly 20K season tickets. What you need to remember is the last time Nodge had a long period in the same league their attendances were not much different to ours. Their boost came when they had a playoff final defeat. They started going up then, however, they had a lot of concessions. I believe 75% were discounted. I remember reading it as it has to be disclosed in their financial statements. |  | | |

Give yourself a good talking to! 'Bigger' isn't really a measure that's based on winning something in the last millennium is it? If so, Huddesfield are massive! 😉 | | | |
