You're obviously not married then?

14 years, together for 19 and no, I was generalising rather than talking about myself.
I'd have to do a calendar rather than a day for that!

Only 200 ST's left now for the Echo Stand, or whatever it's called now. Co-op ST's sold out.

3199 season tickets sold by the early bird deadline which is superb considering everything. On course to match last seasons sales in league one. Expected we'd struggle to shift 2000 with the anger and complete apathy going around the club at the moment. The difference a Tom Pope makes.

We've just released our numbers sold, which is very unlike us in recent years. Up significantly on last year(which isn't hard). The club don't say how much, but we've sold 1,816. Seems surprisingly low however, given we pull in 3k home fans at a minimum on most weeks, I wouldn't have thought we have 1,000 walk ups and individual ticket sales for every game. Well, at least 600-700 after you take out freebies etc.

STs sold up 10% on last year (I wonder why?) to 1816. Simple Maths would say we shifted 1650 at this time last year but it's still encouraging to have sold more given the decline the club has been in until the last few months. Still got a long way to go back to the comfortable 2500 to sub-3000 it used to be after we got promoted to League One but by the time the season kicks off in a months time we'll probably have shifted more than our 2011-12 promotion season at this level.

I didn't expect a massive surge in ST sales because we still finished deep in the bottom half last year but the increase is welcomed after 4 years of decreasing ST sales. I still reckon we can comfortably top 2000 with them now finally going on general sale.

Surprised we sold that many really. It doesn't mean we can guarantee 3199 will be at every home game though as we are one of the few teams who only count season ticket holders that turn up whereas most other clubs count them anyway.

Yep so we must be somewhere between 5500-6000 in total which is a staggering amount. I never thought we could ever shift that number regardless of what league or how well things had been going.

To quote Mr Long, our PA announcer, 'let's get this place rocking'.

If all goes well, I would expect a surge on the half season tickets at Christmas. Must say I am surprised at how low the figure seems seeing we normally have 3000-3500 home fans even when we have been utter gash, the last home match v Barnet we had 4200 home fans, i hope that is more of an indication off how we will be backed this season, 4000 growing to 5000 if we are challenging.

The net loss for showing complete lack of concern for the club's future and keeping Dull Davis for far too long is concerning. 10% isn't much to boast about. Fans aren't going to return on the basis of a decent summer in the transfers. Paramount we have a promotion push next season otherwise forget about increasing sales, that 10% will leave again.

So basically everyone's attendances are going up massively next season.

Ours won't be. We were on 2100 last I heard, which is fairly standard for us at this time of pre-season at League 2 level.

2800 for us at the end of early bird deadline, only 200 down on last year so not as bad as expected and they always extend the early bird offer anyway so should still shift a few more yet.

Just over 3000 sold, about a 1000 down from last season, before Flitcroft was appointed manager sales were pretty bad, but he (Flitcroft) seems to have awoke the passion in our fan base, and a lot of people that were not going to renew have done so.
If we start of the season well i can see us getting a average gate of between 6000 and 6500, which will be on a par with last season

No idea, our chairman doesn't even disclose contract lengths. But he has said it's up on last year. I'd guess somewhere between 3-4,000, closer to the 4k end.

We've smashed through the 1,000 barrier. 1,024 sold to date. Gonna be banging at Dave next season .... if we actually do play another home game that is.

Less than 100 left as of yesterday and it sounds like any remaining ones are restricted view in the Echo Stand (or whatever it's called now).

I think Cov said we are over 4000, that's an embarrassment but should go up if we get off to a good start.
The club sells 6 and 12 game packages that aren't included in those figures ,which I know lots have purchased.
