[Football] Season Ticket Waiting List cut in half if we drop divisions.

[SUA Seagull]

Well there's a natural turnover of a certain % I guess (deaths, people moving away, financial reasons etc) but the broad ST base has been at the same number for a few years........not sure even the dross of the last season would cause many to stop, as the vast majority will have done several championship seasons anyway. Makes no difference to me, will go regardless

Indeed, as much as I'd love us to survive in the PL I wouldn't be too upset if we did slip back into the Championship and so I have renewed too. On the plus side, if we do go down at least I get to see lots more games in the Midlands where I live and after our home games I won't be feeling depressed on on the long and lonely drive home from the Amex!

Truth is there is no middle ground with most of us anyway - we're either ecstatic about winning, or whinging about losing but either way it gives us something to do and something to talk about. It's TB I'll feel for if we do drop though - I know he'll be sanguine about it , can afford it and will have a clear plan to get us back up but would be nice for him to enjoy it a bit longer first.

When we go up the season ticket renewal letter reads ..... " Now that we're in the premier league we'll have to raise prices so you can see the greatest league in the world"

When we go down "because of reduced income and the greater number of games, we're increasing season ticket prices"

3 of us offered tickets for next season but we have all declined and will not be renewing our bronze membership next season, not all on waiting list will take up offer even in the premiere

How many didn't renew in the 14/15 season?

Season ticket holders dropped to about 18.5K for 15/16; although quite a few bought a half season ticket the following January! I remember PB on the Albion Roar stating that most of the complaints about the new loyalty scheme - specifically the rewarding of people for holding a season ticket for consecutive seasons - were from the fair weather supporters that didn't renew that year.

You can bet that it will be the same rats giving up their season tickets now, complaining in a couple of seasons time about the loyalty scheme and not being able to go to Arsenal.

This.......

Swings and roundabouts.

If some leave no problem, I’ll sign my lad 5 in September on it with a hope of actually getting one in the north stand with me in a couple of years.

As it stands no point paying out each season to then be unable to get him with me.

Some will gain if there is a drop in season tickets.

I don’t think either will happen though unless we drop straight down to L1 or something.

Harsh, but fair.

How do you know what “number” you are in the waiting list

Sign in to website and look at your personal details. It's on your profile

 

[DavidRyder]

Any drop in interest will come in about 10 months, when season tickets are up for renewal, if we are in the Champ next season, and unlikely to go up.

I don’t give a shit I’ll be watching what ever league we are in. I’ve seen a lot worse than this over the years.

So, how many people are on the season ticket waiting list (STWL) at this moment in time? I would be interested to see if the figures drastically change if we do drop to the second-tier in English football.

Will they drop our yearly payment if we go down? It has only been going up around my way, Lower West. UTA

Based on your posting history, shouldn't you be called PalaceSorcerer? You do have your own forum (two in fact) to chose from - either the BBS or TheHomesdale.net. Maybe piss off back to one of those.

Palacefinder General - doing the work of the NSC mods since 1696 and rapidly losing the will to live! Wheel out the vat of Enrest's liquid excrement and we'll do our third 'sink or swim' test of the last three days.

Aren't you the one who was found out, promoting the Green Man on this thread? https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/showthread.php?371601-Green-Man-for-Wembley!

Indeed. Pretty sure if you go and look on the WWFC forum, there’s a new poster ‘WolvesSorcerer’ currently ‘putting it out there’ that the Green Man is THE pub for Wolves fans to drink in on Sunday.

F*** 95% of the ST Waiting List. These cocks could have bought a ST outright in the January of the season we got promoted. These people are not Albion fans, they just want to see the footballing gods of other clubs off the telly. Sooner they piss off back to Twickers the better

IF come Feb next year, it looks like there’ll be a second successive season of Championship football for 2020/21, I wonder if a much larger number of s/t holders don’t renew?

Recent fans seem to love the whole PL ‘product’, the hype, the media coverage, the buzz of a match day as Chelsea arrive, and the chance to see top 6 players in the flesh (i.e. not on Sky/BT).

Being a bad loser, for me that comes with a low probability of achieving a result, so it wouldn’t be the end of the world to taste Championship football again.

 

[Whitechapel]

If we don’t pull off a miracle Are we the first club to go down and pay more for the privilege ?

No, it’s sadly pretty common practice.

Absolute pisstake. Justifying the price hike when we go up, and then finding an excuse to justify it when we go down.

I’m not quite sure how you’ve managed to get it that wrong.

 

[mothy]

I don't have a season ticket or on waiting list. My life would be easier if we do go down
