| First of all well done. This offer has got people to commit to a season ticket who wouldnt have for all sorts of reasons before. What I would like to see no Monday is a slight price increase to say 120 pounds for adults thus still making buying a ticket excellent value but still paying respect to the fans who took the original offer up and not making it look like a sham.

Absolutely - that's called 'continuous improvement' and it's always a good thing to strive for.

| When I bought my ticket for £100 I knew that I would be unable to attend all the games. I purchased my ticket as a loyal supporter with what I thought was an understanding that if 2500 of the hardcore supporters bought their tickets before the deadline the supporters who for what ever reason were undecided or had never purchased a ticket before would be entitled to the £100 offer after the deadline. I bought my ticket thinking that I was contributing to getting as many fans at Belle Vue as possible. I find it distasteful that some posters on here seem more interested in what other people pay for their ticket than what they have paid for theirs. The £100 offer should be extended to the opening weekend of the season. Because I bought my ticket early I do not believe that I should have any more benefits than the supporters who are unable or reluctant due to financial considerations to buy early. The majority of us who bought at £100 could afford £175 its the others who could not who would benefit from this offer and now if the ticket prices are increased they will be alienated. If Glover decides to increase the price i for one will feel cheated.

I will not feel cheated, But all of us who have got season tickets should get together as one voice and say keep the tickets at £100 pound and two split payments until two weeks before kick off, this is clearly working, so lets not change it, giving fans that have already got tickets a chance to talk to other fans to come on board, and giving new fans a fantastic deal, hoping they will be back next season...

| Perhaps we should camapaign for Glover to give alms to the poor every Sunday. He could annoint their feet as well.
People have had close to 2 months to sign up to what is the best deal we've ever had offered to us. It is a business though, not a charity, and as such, I'd trust the business acumen of those now in charge, who have demonstrated their success elsewhere and have managed to smash our number of season ticket holders 4 months before the start of the season. I'd love it if we could continue to give away the product below market value forever and attract more people, but there are other factors to be weighed up which mean such a strategy is unlikely to be as straightforward as some on here would paint it.

| I agree, as much as we want to attract as many supporters as we can, we need to justify that with the necessary income.
From the point of view of attendances though, another 606 per game will elevate us above cas in attendances and get us up in the 7000s.

| Sorry but i've heard some right rubbish on this thread! Season tickets were guaranteed to be £100 IF you and 2499+ others signed up and paid before October. I did and i'm not bothered if they go up or stay the same come Monday. The offer was there to be taken, if people didn't do it then it was their choice. A sale is a sale, when it's gone it's gone!

| I was told it was made quite clear in the Wakey Express this week that if the target was reached the price would stay at £100. I've got mine at a price that I'm very happy with and it makes no difference to me what they sell them at now as long as it's what works best for the club.

[iReaching the target will ensure that season ticket costs can be kept to £100 for adults, £80 for concessions and £20 for juniors.[/i

Add this to statements on the official site like keep prices low for EVERYONE, and it's easy to see where the confusion may arise. Given that a number of people were also unsure of what was meant by ealier statements regarding payment for the offer, it's definitely something that should be looked at by the club in future.
Be that as it may, it's still been a fantastic result for the club in a relatively short period of time on the back of a difficult season on and off the pitch. Let's hope we can continue to bring as many people as possible on board before the start of next season.

| Whilst ambiguous at best, nowhere has it been stated by the club that if the target is met, the price will stay a £100.
When it says reaching the target will keep the cost at £100, it is referring to those who bought before the deadline.
Supporters have bought their S.T’s in good faith, knowing that if the target isn’t met, the price would rise to £180, they deserve to be applauded, and receive cheaper tickets for their commitment.

You do not get it do you, new fans are likely to take the offer up at £100, then go on to buy a shirt, food, drink... why have a stadim half full at £175.00, when you can get alot more in at £100, plus a shirt £40, program,food,match day draw tickets, flags, car stickers,drink in a few Games you would nearly claw back the £75 lost on the season offer...
=#0000FFPerhaps we should camapaign for Glover to give alms to the poor every Sunday. He could annoint their feet as well,
having a dig at people with not much money is not the right thing to do shame on you..
