there was a sign up last season in between the white swan and liberal club saying football bus departs 45min before kick off. not sure which place it was actually ran by though. 

Back in the baseball ground / early pride park days you had to apply by post for your away tickets.

required was a short note stating how may tickets you wanted and who they were for 

a stamped, self addressed envelope to get your tickets back in

a cheque, sometimes blank as you didn't know if you would be getting 1 or 2 tickets for games like Forest

the good old days

If there is no loyalty scheme then the only way to do it, if demand exceeds allocation, is by ballot. 

register interest for said game, how many tickets you want, draw ballot. 

Why is the season ticket thread now about Richard Keogh? The last thing I want to be reading about is him.

Anyone looking to buy a programme at Bradford tomorrow will be disappointed as they have decided to stop printing them for this season.

Have these been available at home in recent times? Would be nice to have them this season

1500 away members paying £40 is only 60k in the bank. 

some grounds don't have 1500 away allocation 

i'd be happy to see it scrapped and back to STH / general fans building away points and loyalty

maybe he wants something like, if im injured or suspended I don't have to come in and am free to work on tv. 

personally I wouldn't be offering a 2 year playing contract. 1 year with option for now.

no time for sentiment its time to rebuild the foundations of the club.

Theres an email someone’s put on Twitter stating no away memberships for the foreseeable future. 
 

whilst I don’t agree with the scheme (ST + number of games much fairer) if we had 1500 away members paying £40 that’s 60k in the bank. Can we afford to turn that money down? 
 

suppose it’s not that much in the scheme of things and you can just add 60k onto someone’s transfer fee 

I don't know anyone mortgage free other than people that bought houses 35/40 years ago for 20k.

it's what are those savings for though? 

What if you use £1000 of savings to buy season tickets and then your boiler needs replacing, car needs major work or you lose your job. Where do you go then? 

as context I used just under 10% of my savings for 3 season tickets. I would rather not have done but I read the DD issue as not something that would be resolved before July 29th, it looks as though it may be but that's not confirmed yet.

I was willing to outlay now as I'm fairly confident i can replace the savings within 2 months, and as now new STHs I wanted certain part of the ground. I certainly wouldn't have used 25/50% of savings if that's what I had so can see why many are holding out for DD.

So whilst many probably have savings, is something like a season ticket what they are saved for?

Does anyone know the east stand block / seat number cut off when we have give more than 3300 in the cup?

Found it

Due to Manchester United requesting their full allocation of tickets (15% of stadium capacity in accordance with Emirates FA Cup regulations), seats numbered 373 or higher in the Upper Tier and seats numbered 377 or higher in the Lower Tier of the Atlas Building & Civil Engineering East Stand will not be available to home supporters. All other stands will be open as usual.

its currently a 2022/24 squad

if kept up to date it needs the following info

Name. Position. Contract end date. (Month/Year)

How do we change fortunes away from home? That will determine midtable or top 6 

Tactics? Mentality? Formation?

Would be good to do another march, as a thank you to Clowes and celebrating our survival. 
 

If not Oxford then Wycombe or Cheltenham at home both fall around the administration anniversary. 

I want to be the first to ask this, as it will be asked a hundred times over ?

When will new season ticket cards be posted out? ?

How many sold? 

Was in two minds last night but then thought...what if last month we were all offered the chance to pay £500 to save the club, what would you have done?

Answer. 3 New season tickets in the East stand

On the no DD option…..In current times of financial hardship for many I don’t think the best advice is telling people to take out credit cards. Whilst the principal is the same in paying it back, the temptation or necessity to use is it for other things is there. 

When I read the press release I assumed it wouldn’t be an option all season, not something they were hoping to have in place. Some clarity on that would be useful so people know where they stand and can decide what to do. 

Match by match for now could be an option for some and then look at a half season ticket with Christmas money.
 

If you buy a ST after the first game are they pro rata? 
 

There are 6 home games before they go off sale on 30th September. 

as the business owner (Clowes) would you prefer for people to pay upfront or pay slightly more over direct debit?

all ticket office staff have been asked to go in tomorrow apparently, not sure if thats to start selling or maybe learn pricing structure/sale methods

when will we get to see any accounts?

when do we have to submit anything to the EFL?

does anyone have a list of our current squad with contract end dates against them?

If we had a game tonight how would we line up? 
 

Be interesting to see how that changes over the coming days. 

How many more do we need to be competitive?
