Now it's pretty much certain we're going down. 09:05 - Mar 16 with 1652 views

Would expect to see season ticket information coming out soon? Anyone got any inside info as to when this might be?

Will be interesting to see the approach taken.

Given the way the commercial aspect of the club has been run of late, I can't see past anything other than an increase, with the justification that 'if you work out the price per game, it's remained the same/gone down'.

Yeah, that's about what I'm expecting. Especially when there's likely still a queue of people who would jump at one.

Mostly hoping the resale functionality is taken forward again.

With the messaging after the Palace game, looking for feedback on their digital ticket system, I think that might be coming in 25/26 or 26/27, with the impact that it might force those who aren't attending to use the resale platform.

I’ve used the resale platform three times and it worked well for me.

I've not used it myself, but I tend to give my ticket to friends/family when I can't go. If everything is made digital, I would assume that this would become impossible unless you lend the device to the person in question.

At the end of the day, the club would much rather resell the ticket at full value, than allow us to share a ticket for free.

Either way club get the money albeit slightly more if through re-sale.

There's a real inbalance st the moment. Season ticket prices are one of the lowest but individual match ticket prices have increased steadily.

The club clearly oversold season tickets at the end of 22/23 but with good reason. I suspect they could do with that number reducing.

A season-ticket waiting list was to be introduced this season but there's been no mention regarding that either.

Paper tickets are to be phased out by the start of 26/27

I suspect it’s more to do with who the ticket is going to and for what price.

Last season, for the odd game I couldn’t attend I asked if there was a mechanism for my seat being given to somebody who would have got pleasure from it and couldn’t afford it, through the club, foundation, whatever. I got referred here there and everywhere and it was clear that at that time the club had no policy or mechanism to arrange it, so the seat stayed vacant.

I’m sure there’s a way of lending a ticket to friends and family in the 21st century and it’s surely on the club’s ’to do’ list. It can’t be that difficult.

The resale process is good. Why not three options it - firstly to nominated friend or family (no finance involved - your situation). Donate (no family involved) - schools, young people, needy, whatever. A gift. And lastly resale exactly as is on offer now.

But the person selling it gets the money back for that game, don’t they?

I assume we can reduce the number of away supporters to give us more home tickets at least.

They get 1/19th of their ST less a £1 admin fee. The club will then resell at the full match day price, which is higher

I can't see the likes of Preston or Blackburn bringing more than about 500 or so down here, in particular as you look at the budgies. They have had 8 12.30 kos this season which will undoubtedly effect crowds. Plus I suspect unless we start like a steam train I guess demand will drop off. In addition I think tickets will stay unchanged for season tickets at least.
