Security isn't a dirty word Blackadder, Crevice is but security isn't.

The 'Queenie' series of Blackadder was the best, no question. Blackadder the second I think it was...

Then you should have recognised the quote :), LOLuton incident.

Loved Goes Forth, absolutely tons of genius quotes in it. How would you like the honest answer sir of 'No I'd rather be sat on a giant stepladder in the middle of no mans land smoking endless cigarettes through a luminous balaclava'

Big fan of Blackadder... :) I've got a cunning plan to get this thread back on topic, a plan so cunning you can stick a tail on it, and cal it weasel !!... :)

Right season tickets sales, the club have sold approx 840 so far, with the majority in the new stand, they are estimating around a 1000 season tickets will be sold by the start of the season.

Only 160 more to be sold between now and the start of next season? That seems quite low to me...

Not sure Camb, early bird finishes tomorrow, and I can't see why anyone who is getting a ticket (certainly not 160 anyones) would wait until after the price rise to purchase.

Have to agree with Matt, I think we'll be lucky to get another 160 sales once the prices go up. That said, i'm not sure why they would need to go up. Surely the cost of a season ticket is the same value now as it would be in July?

Get the cash in early, give Dinger an idea of what he has to spend before he takes his tiger print Speedos and his Jimmy Nail LPs to Margate for his two weeks away.

It would appear that around 40 plus season tickets have been in the last 24hrs, with it being payday for many tommorrow and the last day of the early bird prices could see that number maybe a few more sold , so sales could be around 900 by the end of Friday.

Leaving around 100 sold at the full price, maybe some will get aseason ticket just can't afford it for a few more weeks, think 1000 ish is a fair estimation, was told season tickets sales are slightly up on last season.

That's good news. Three of us bought ours yesterday, so that's another weeks wages for one of our middle earners covered.

As to the payday thing, Dave, I suggested that the offer was extended by another week, to give those who are paid on the last working day of the month (surely a very common occurrence) a chance to pick them up on the cheap.

960 season tickets sold according to our sales team - what a great effort and hopefully will lead to the 500 extra average attendance next season!
