I've got an issue with a season ticket renewal, complicated by the fact I'm trying to purchase two extra ones for next season. General sales begin on Monday, but the deadline for the 4 month interest free deal ends today - is that right? So only current ST holders can use the interest free option?

 

Also, do we think season ticket numbers will be down because of the player (and possibly management) exodus? From what I could see on the screen in the ticket office there were an awful lot of blank seats waiting to be renewed...

I've renewed mine. That's all that matters.

remember if you buy your tickets early there is a chance you will get to sit on the bench, cause the way its going we will have no players left

Hibs have sold 11,600 season tickets so far (start of June).

Hibs will have an upturn due to their fans enjoying the competitive nature of the diddy leagues and gaining a promotion.

 

I renewed ours on Monday and was told sales were down on last year, but still steady, be a shame if we went backwards after a seaon like the one just finished.

 

 

Weve sold around 7k so far. I'll probably renew,but understand others holding off for now

Apparently that figure is made up, or at least unofficial

7k season tickets - not many, poor.

 

I can understand why so few. I wouldn't buy a season ticket either and no need to even buy one for AFC in SPL.  Even if the club reaches 2 finals tickets finals are easily sourced.  Ibrox ticket - easy, semi-final - easy, Europe - easy.  Just join a supporter club, no need for a season book.

 

The club has made no effort to improve the atmosphere at Pittodrie. Prices have gone up (shocking price entry and very bad value). The club has been giving away tickets for the Merkland for years tells you all you need to know.

 

 

 

 

Not renewed mine yet and probably won't. Cost of transport on top of games being moved from 3pm on a Saturday means it's no longer worthwhile.

The huns are back and spending. A lot less of our games will be moved.

Gutted, I have already paid for mine but now I know you wont be going I might try and get a refund 

 

Joining a supporters club doesn't guarantee you a ticket for Ibrox or the cup games.  As for Europa, for the more popular games the club usually do a ballot so it's pot luck.

 

The atmosphere at Pittodrie is, as you have said, dire to say the least.  North East folk like to go to the games and just watch football.  It isn't all down to the club.

Surely with the news that Derek and Tony AND Paul Sheerin are staying, sales will rocket now? If we get a couple of decent signings in the next week or so, I envisage us to be back up to 10k+ before the season starts.

Agree with Chris, if reports are to be believed we may actually spend some cash so we'll hopefully get a season ticket bounce.

The club should extend their  spread the cost opertunity for another couple of weeks to encourage those who were holding off because of the situation of uncertainty

Not that that put me aff  through thick and thin  for us Die hards

I also renewed and added 2 new ones - long before last nights events. But I agree there will be surge of enthusiasm now and I don't see why ST numbers should be down. If we're serious about prolonging the Rangers suffering we need the fans to up their game too.

Don't worry, season ticket sales will go up when

Kingsford gets built.

I agree, the atmosphere at Pittodrie has always been poor.

 

One thing I always notice is that they only change the music once every twenty years or so. It's as bad as the music selection on Northsound. The singing section in the Merkland is also a bit of a joke as others have metioned on this forum.

 

Having said that, I thought Reds and Co were quite good even though I could hardly see them from the back of the South stand.

 

I go to Pittodrie to catch up with family and friends as well as watch the game so I don't spend much time singing or cheering. A bad ref or a few strong tackles seem to get the fans going more than anything the club do.

Me and Dad renewed ours again back in May I think it was, took advantage of the spread the cost over 6 months offer.

 

We have switched stands though from the Merkland to RDS.

Any news on whether things have picked up yet?

Indeed. Doubt there will be many spare seats for season one especially. ST will be essential.

Reading else where weve sold just under 8000.Given the uncertainty about Del,while waiting on signings and the local economy,not an unreasonable amount? Would be hopeful of getting 10k plus STs sold once some signings come in.....

Heard AFC has shifted approx 9,000 and estimate a maximum of 10500 sold. Some other clubs have made announcements - Hearts 13,000, Hibs 14,500.

 

At the start of June it was estimated Aberdeen had shifted only 7,500. 

 

 

 

 

 

Contrary to reports elsewhere,pleasantly surprised to hear we've sold over 10,000 STs now,on official site.More than at the same time last year. 

Definitely an improvement, how do our prices compare to HIVs and the Hobos?

 

Hopefully we'll see an increase in the uptake

 

All clubs have different deals,but we're similar to Hibs prices.Hearts have a mix of the least and most expensive seats

DONSDAFT IN SPIKKING SHITE SHOCKER

 

 

Despite continually whining and moaning about "nae gaun back" if Christie came back as a loan player, I have it on good authority that donsdaft was seen purchasing a season ticket earlier today.

 

On leaving the ticket counter he was heard to mutter " 385 fuckin quid and they want a pound extra to send me the fuckin thing"

 

 

DM was heard to say " it's just like a new signing"
