How many season tickets will we sell?

[Aspinal's Body Double]

Total number (including 1901).

14,501

 

[Smithy]

All of them. I went to my presentation earlier and there are not many left. West stand upper is almost sold out now.

 

[Aspinal's Body Double]

How did you two reply before I'd even finished writing?

 

[sir albion]

All of them
Probably done nearly 11k already so why vote that?

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

I'm guessing high 10,000s

 

[Blackadder]

I'm fairly confident that we will shift all of them

Including 1901s think we have already smashed that.

Hang on, you say total including 1901, but the total for the purposes of the poll, including 1901 the total would be 17,900 - wouldn't it?

Which would mean that 1/3rd of season ticket holders would be people who have basically never been to an Albion game since the Goldstone? Still can't quite see it myself, but I'd love to be proved wrong.

Don't think so. I think 15,00 includes 1901 (thus leaving 7000 matchday tickets up to the 22,000 capacity).

Not really. How do we know that a third of the people have never been to a game since the Goldstone? 1.000s have probably done the odd game(s) at Withdean.

I'm confused as well! Especially with all the talk previously about only 900 seats on sale per game etc!

So lets work this out, I'm sure the better informed will come along with the correct figures but here goes:

Season ticket sales - 15500
1901 club - 2400
Away end (exc cup games) - 2400(?)
On sale to everyone else - 2200

Total - 22500

Is that right?

EDIT - Checked on wiki:

The largest is the three-tiered West Stand, which will hold 11,833 spectators. The East Stand (the Family stand) will hold 5,404, the North Stand 2,688, and the South Stand, which will contain away supporters, 2,575.

Think you are right there. 17,900 plus 2,500 away fans leaves a couple of thousand for casual supporters

 

[Smithy]

The 15,500 season tickets does not include 1901.

 

[Surport Local Team]

almost right casbom however not 2000 for general as around 1000 are for players families, reserve players/youth players, directors and guests of apposing team, media, etc

 

[Gwylan]

almost right casbom however not 2000 for general as around 1000 are for players families, reserve players/youth players, directors and guests of apposing team, media, etc

And there are now 2,900 1901 tickets as the allocation was increased

Im not being on a downer here but theres no way were going to sell the lot,....however id be majorly shocked but also delighted if it did happen.

I fear most of the main newbie fans or old school coming back would have been purchased on the +3.

If what were hearing is approx right 11500 ish altogether with 1901 have gone then I forsee 2000-3000 max more being sold going forward,

That would give us 13,500- 14,500 total & 2250 to away

Then about 4-5k per game on general I reckon.

That sounds much more realistic, but I would say that....its my opinion.

Do we have boxes? I'm a bit confused or is 1901 just one big box?

There are boxes as well for people richer than the 1901ers.
