every game is going to be a novelty in Div 3!

Except, ironically, Rotherham!

Maybe St. Andrews as well

It's only really the local games and novelty ones like Brentford that have sold out fast....I was on about the ones where we've had massive allocations like PNE and Barnsley and Wigan in a few weeks where you get massive allocations, I went to the PNE game and I don't have a season ticket and I could get a ticket for Wigan no problem if I wanted.

You're kidding aren't you?  Rotherham (2,600 allocation) sold out at ST+5 away games!

Your so  right,  this season  most matches have been sold out away - I am a ST holder but have  had to beg for most of my tickets as  they have sold out at ST + a  number of games.  Luckily people who are in the away scheme have helped me out.

Has the queue for ST's shrunk at all?  I went down first thing but it was out of the car park and halfway down Witton Lane.

I can just about see the end of the queue and I'm 75 miles away

In case no-one has seen it, the club have said on the OS that in response to comments from season ticket holders, anyone who paid for their Season Ticket before May 31st last year will have the price of their ticket frozen until the first home game of the season.

After raising this by phone with the ticket office I sent a lengthy formal complaint by email about this earlier this week, and included the url of the page that made the offer last April. I had an initial reply from Lee Preece and was waiting for a fuller response from Lynne O'Reardon (Head of Ticketing). Obviously others have done the same. Good to see the club is listening.

Just had a chat with Lynne O'Reardon. She confirmed that people who paid for their ST before 31st May last year will now have until first game of the season to obtain next season's ST at the same price as last year. BUT it's worth noting that while you have until the first game to get the ST at the same price you can only guarantee/renew your actual seat by 6th June, before the relocation day kicks in. So if, like me, you want the same seat at the same price you need to do it by 6th June (although on that personalised web page email I've just read it actually says by 9th June)

I am not paying for a season ticket now. And if they put the prices up after that they can go fuck themselves for my money.

I suspect that's how a lot of people feel. If they put the prices up next year, we could see attendances drop to around 25,000.

I agree, I am not paying for a season ticket, until later this summer, I honestly thought after the dross that we have put up with for the last 6 seasons, that anyone who is a current season ticket should have until 30th June to renew at the early bird price.

I think I'm going to get 3 season tickets for next season. Only ever had one in 1981-2 so feel it's about time to get one and one for my 18 and 7 years old sons!  Its in the blood!

Mind you I not sure how many I'll make living in Preston now!  ;D

They should have priced for loyalty for adults as well. I applaud charging cheap prices for kids but someone has to take the buggers to the game.

Good to see Kodjia's English coming on well, he's only been living here for nearly two years!

Kodjia is about the only one they could send out and know that he wouldn't get a round of fucks when the door opens.

Do you think they could send Denis Mortimer to deliver mine on his next visit to Merseyside
