Already bought my season ticket but this isn't surprising. Poor season plus the season tickets are quite expensive compared to other teams in the league who its fair to say- have more ambitious plans than we do

Is realistic ambitions more suitable then? League one is potential on a good season but must be having a laugh if championship without serious improvements around the club can occur.Robin wrote:Don't we have ambition to get back into league one and potentially the Championship according to Paul Bence?

Made this point on another thread, but I think the inability to buy/renew online would have knocked a fair few off. I have yet to renew (I intend to), but I just haven't had the time yet to sort it because of the additional effort it requires.

With 5 days to go, or the possibility of an extended early bird discount, now would be an ideal time for the Club to announce a marquee signing to get the punters licking their lips and rushing to renew.

You're quite right Hubert- One can renew on a whim if it's available on line.Hubert Parry wrote:Made this point on another thread, but I think the inability to buy/renew online would have knocked a fair few off.

I am going to own up and admit that I haven't renewed and intend to see how things pan out and then maybe buy as they are available on a pro rata basis.

Mr Johnson has just signed his 2 year contract, which is excellent news, and one would certainly describe that as a marquee signing.

And in some cases, some may not be able to sort it before the early bird deadline. And some of them may not be able to afford the inflated price afterwards.Hubert Parry wrote:Made this point on another thread, but I think the inability to buy/renew online would have knocked a fair few off.

Usually you can and I have in previous years. There has been a 'technical issue' throughout May this year though.Shade wrote:I thought you could renew online? There were certainly instructions on the official website Season Ticket page.

Our mole is no moreRobin wrote:Gary mentions he has agreed three signings and 1-2 more are close. Given we have announced only two players either it's a mistake or we will announce another at the start of next week.
Be he just a mere freckle?

Grew louder

Very annoying (for the individual) and potentially a revenue-loser for the club.
Just tried to renew online. The first thing you see when clicking through (from official website) to the Glitnir ticketing portal is:
ONLINE TICKETING SYSTEM FOR 2016-17 SEASON.
All priority club members should have their log in details.
If not, please contact club Ticket Office - 01242 588117.
CHOOSING YOUR MATCH
Match Tickets will be available in July.
To Purchase a new Season Ticket for 2016-17 please click here
To Renew your Season Ticket for 2016-17 please click here
Purchases are subject to £2 per order processing fee.
Even if they can't resolve the "technical issues" preventing online renewal of season tickets, they should insist that Glitnir get rid of the out-of-date information that is a hang-over from last year. It just looks so unprofessional, as well as confusing (at first I wondered if the online purchase renewal was working, maybe, and they just forgot to update the season description to "2017-2018" - but no!).
I want to renew; the club have already got all my details; so they should be making it as easy as possible. I don't see why I should go to the trouble of printing off a PDF form, filling it all in by hand, then making a special journey to the ticket office (where tickets will not even be available to collect at the same time!). How very last century...
I was hoping the new-look board would have prioritised (and fixed) this sort of issue by now.
Ah well, I'll try and find time to phone the box office tomorrow and see if they can sort me out that way.

.... just to point out that the newest premier league side season tickets are: ...quote.."There are so many families who already have bought season tickets for £179, £99 for kids, to watch Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and all the rest of them come down to our place [Huddersfield Town]...."
Ours are a little over the top for lg 2 surely?

...and I'm still undecided as the squad looks pretty thin so far .....

Not just ours, but League 1 and 2 as a whole - we are a similar level to everyone else.theidlerich wrote:.... just to point out that the newest premier league side season tickets are: ...quote.."There are so many families who already have bought season tickets for £179, £99 for kids, to watch Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and all the rest of them come down to our place [Huddersfield Town]...."

Huddersfield can afford to sell them that cheap - compared to TV money from the Premier League, ST sales are a small percentage of revenue, so cutting prices doesn't lose much money.
However, this money does not trickle down to L1 and L2 whilst the inflated player wages, costs, and expectations do - so ticket revenue is the only way for clubs to survive. With the wages and costs to be competitive constantly going up, but TV revenue not keeping pace, clubs in L1 and L2 will rely more and more on increasing ticket prices. This will drive down crowds and kill the game.
The rich and wealthy clubs with their monopoly and foreign investors and tourist fans continue to grow revenue at the expense of traditional lower league community clubs whose normal fans carry the burden (a reflection of our society and economy as a whole - worth remembering on June 8th).
The only option is a ticket price cap in L1 and L2 combined with an additional £1million pound given from the Premier League to L1 and L2 teams, with this £1million tracking the TV deals. I.e. if in two years the Premier League TV deal goes up 10%, then the amount given to each L1 and L2 goes up 10%.

Indeed, 969 apparently.
