    You'll get your 2017-18 ticket at the same frozen price, even if we are promoted (could be to the Premier League).

    Which is a good incentive. But why on earth have they waited until 3 days before the early bird offer runs out before announcing this.

    I've got my season ticket already but there's pressure on people to find the money in the next 3 days.

    This means we now have to put the prices up in 2017-18.

    I dont see how they could do that if we were still in League One. Although unlikely we could even be in League 2.

    That suggests to me that sales are not what the club expected by this time.

    Hardly ****ing surprising given the time scale involved and other factors eg Wembley.

    A better announcement would be to extend the early bird deadline until 31st May AND freeze prices...

    I would say this we have all had to shell out for Wembley (not that I'm complaining great day) we have a real posibility of getting there again. Maybe extending the early bird for another month wouldn't hurt, would it?
    You would have thought most would renew and even a few stay aways would be tempted with season tickets after this season. Our best season in a league for ten years ( ok at a lower level than we have been in for most of them ten but still better than championship survival every year)

    That's where you sit, Dave? I generally sit in the next bit along, which is where i was trying to buy. Behind the comm box.

    Maybe not the reaction of a true fan but quite honestly I am waiting to see which league we are in next season before I buy a s/t or not.
    I find it strange that the early bird deadline is the 29th, one day ahead of our last crucial home game which could decide our future. If it were me I'd extend that deadline out by a couple of weeks to allow fans to make a considered decision, not a panic one, based on the above.
    What exactly does it achieve making folks decide hurriedly. I'd rather not throw three hundred odd pounds at someone who was demanding it, in effect.
    But then again am I a true supporter?

    All this is irrelevant to me. I know i'm going to get one regardless, so I get one at its cheapest. The end.
