season ticket sales

Post by bixieupnorth »

i see we sold 120 season tickets today, the first day they were on sale, thats double the take on the first day of last season

how many do we normally sell?? i guess the record will be the year that they did that half price deal, great offer, but i nearly killed us i believe??

Aren't the early bird prices ending earlier this year? May 16th seems a very short time to get the early bird price!

I found the receipt for the season tickets that I bought last year and the purchase date was the 2nd of June and that was the still the early bird price! This year the early bird price ends on the 16th of May, IMO I think that's way too early to end the early bird price.

Anyone know if you can pay for it either on a Direct Debit or something similar or does it have to be one whole payment? Always wandered if there was alternative ways of paying like that.

Yeah me too. Would be a lot easier if we were allowed to pay by direct debit in instalments or something like that. I know lots of other clubs allow fans to do this so , like Alex says, does anyone know if this is possible at Torquay? I will try to get to only half the games next season but i would still like to contribute to the club and buy my FIRST EVER season ticket! :clap:

I understand we have shifted around 175 season tickets now, well at least that was what I was told a few hours ago when I picked mine up. Around 160 of those are for the new BB, which is understandable, and most are in the middle sections. A pretty decent result given that they have only been on sale for 4 days I think.

I passed comment on the restricted view area in the 'Y' stand and apparently the architect has now carried out a review of the situation and he is of the opinion that only 1 seat (Y235 on the plan) will not quite have a full view of all of the pitch and even that one will still be able to see the corner flag, just not the pole underneath .... so all is good! :scarf:

Its really simple to spread the cost of the season ticket. Get a 12 month 0% interest credit card and buy your ticket on that. Divide the cost by 12 and set up a direct debit to pay off that amount each month thereby clearing the debt over the season. There are loads of deals around and cancel the card at the end of the 12 months and get another from somewhere else to by the next season ticket.

I'm thinking of buying season tickets for people, then allowing them to pay me in installments, for a small, but very reasonable interest.

anyone heard how many we've sold so far?? rumours that two whole blocks sold in the new stand, i'd guess thats about 400?? if thats true then that is superb, how many did we sell in the old stand? maybe a few popsiders will try one season there for the view but i'd imagine most of those, over what we normally sell on that side of the pitch, are newbies?
