Oh, I hear you buddy. And all fair points. 👍 Like I say, my day one renewal (this year) came about purely due to circumstances, and had there been any first day teething problems, I'd have just took a step back until it was sorted. TBH, I don't think I ever renewed online until covid. I was always a big advocate for sorting it face to face in the ticket office before then, and wasn't particularly comfortable doing it on line. Same with individual match tickets (for family glory hunters, or for the odd away games/play offs for myself), but that's an easy option for me, as I pass it at least 10 times a week anyway... actually make that effectively at least 5 times, as I don't think they're open when I pass at 06:50 every morning! 😁 🍻 Tamworthram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there will probably be a week where existing ST holders can change seats before everything opens up. Grumpy Git 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that any un-renewed tickets will go into the general scrum tomorrow morning won't they ? They are surely not going to hold unrenewed seats just in case people have a change of heart ?

Health reasons meant that I only got to just about half of the games this season, so I will pick and choose my games from now on. By and large, I've liked this season as much as any since the poison dwarf promotion - probably more so. Sexy football is fine, but give me a couple of centre-backs with a 'do or die' attitude any day. It's a Jake Buxton thing.

Rev Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 With a heavy heart, I've let my two go, even though I honestly believe them to be the best pair of seats in the stadium, excluding the South Stand. Top row of the SW corner, the last two seats before the SS. Fantastic view of the overall game, you can really see how both teams have set up and the options available throughout the match, they should probably film games from up there to help with coaching. Really good atmosphere up there too, and you can sit or stand as you please without bothering anyone else. There's even a barrier to rest against when standing, or bang your hand against to make some noise. SWU-E, Row Y, Seats 775-776. Whoever gets them, enjoy!

Caerphilly Ram Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Jon Percy saying in his latest article over 20,000 sold already. Not seen anything official from the club on that but if he’s correct it’s decent going. LeedsCityRam and Kathcairns 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That cap is for the Premier League, I believe - not sure it applies to Championship. I believe there has to be some available to purchase game-by-game. I suspect the club will want to sell as many up front as it can, so if there is no limit and demand is high, could be very hard to get tickets this coming year.

Alty_Ram Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 If you assumed say (I dunno) 29k home seats, capping at 22k leaves what, 7k open-sale home tickets which seems a bit unnecessary, particularly when you get all those night games where the casual fans tend to turn up in much lower numbers and with greater fannying about with kickoff times due to the TV deal that are being talked about. There should always be some open sale tickets for sure but that just seems an unnecessarily large block. ST holders tend to show up anyway because they've already bought and paid for it.

Ram1988 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Nearly 20,000 renewals is insane. If we can sell another 2 or 3,000 then it would be a real boost to the clubs finances. Nishfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyPride12 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Thinking of purchasing my first ever set of season tickets for me and my lads. I do have a question though - I'll be getting an adult ticket, child ticket and under 5s ticket. Some games will be too late for my under 5 to go to - can I "upgrade" the ticket to bring my dad along? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from the official site: Upgrades Concession Season Tickets can be upgraded to a higher priced age category on up to four occasions per season. The upgrade cost is available by contacting the Ticket Office. Any upgrades after the fourth time in the season will only be done at the discretion of the club https://www.dcfc.co.uk/page/ticketing-useful-information Ticketing Useful Information - Derby County (dcfc.co.uk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich3478 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Seems no reason we can’t sell 25,000. Still leaves 4000 each game for purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine they have a cap based on being to sell 5000 tickets on a match by match basis is a fair bit more lucrative than having them as season tickets. Bit of a gamble if you've not won for 6 games but I imagine most clubs do it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
