Season Tickets 2012/13

[RoyalBlue]

cue derision from the same lot as last year!

Why? The club are actually offering an additional incentive to renew earlier this year. Unlike previously.

For anyone who has the cash to hand it is a really good offer. Interest rates to savers are p*ss poor (might as well invest in a football club) so a £25 saving on a £375 price for paying a couple of months earlier represents a really good rate of return.

Dramatis Personae
- Mazer Mahmood former News of the World "fake Sheikh" aka Anton Zingarevich
- Sir John Madejski, a known practical joker
- Jason Roberts - a gullible Millionnaire
- 24,500 fully paid up season ticket holders

but a good deal, fair play. Also means Anton can't hike too much too quickly in subsequent seasons. If hes real...

And you really think Anton (or his representative) won't have had some say in this pricing policy?

Another demonstration of an act of good faith on his part I would have said.

I renewed yesterday but I wasn't rewarded any royalty points. Usually you get 150ish when you renew?

Same!

It came up at the end of the purchase saying you have been rewarded with 0 Royalty points

[1871 Royal]

Do they get added on for next season? Once the renewal period is over?

Give the ticket office a bell tomorrow and ask would be my advice. Might be some error that they are unaware of yet?

[LWJ]

Maguire got a retweet concerning this.

That is all I have to say on the matter

Hobnob stalking time

Checked my Twitter and up comes the "Do I look ghey" photo. I COL

[melonhead]

This is the first time I've been able to afford a season ticket, but the site says I'm unable to buy one. I guess I have to fill in an application, but can't find anything about this on thr OS, how does it work?

[Rex]

I should think the priority is for current S/T holders. This will prevent other supporters attempting to take an existing S/T holders seat before the current seat holder renews.
There will be a movers / new S/T holders window later.

[St Pauli]

Thought so too but:

New season ticket applicants, on sale now until Friday 27th April:
East, north and lower west stands: Adults £395, 17-21s £250, 65 & overs £250, 16 & under £99.
Upper west stand: Adults £445, 17-21s £280, 65 & overs £280, 16 & under £99.

Will be interested to see how the new ticket priority works for away games.

current season ticket holders seats are safe until the renewal date expires. all non-season ticket seats are up for grabs until then.

[Rex]

Normal service resumed on the website then.

As a non-season ticket holder i've just tried to "choose seats" and it just says...

You and your friends and family are not currently able to buy this Season Ticket. The following customers cannot purchase this Season Ticket due to existing Season Tickets/Memberships are shown below:

Membership - Does not expire

...which doesn't really make any sesnse

[Wizard]

Decided I'm gonna be IN actually. Don't want to risk not being able to get seats next season if we're promoted.

[Cobi]

Very IN.

Great prices. Buying ours tomorrow.

Don't think I've seen this mentioned elsewhere...care to enlighten me old saaan?

it is in the OP - from next season ticket priority will be ST first and then Royalty points so if there is high demand non-ST may not get a look in unless they have an away ST.

Ticket priority for high demand away matches. From next season, both season ticket status and number of Royalty Points will be used as criteria for key away games. Season ticket holders are being rewarded with the highest possible priority, in conjunction with their Royalty Points, as opposed to Royalty Points being the sole criteria used.

[TFF]

Quite right too. It's best that those currently supporting* the team get priority.

Having said that I'd rather see that by expiry of Royalty Points than STH priority, it'd be a bit tough on anyone who has had a ticket for the last couple of seasons but can't afford one this coming season to miss out on the odd (or even bi-weekly) juicy away match at the expense of a JCL.

*financially

I totally agree that we have sold out our allocation time and time again.
Prep for realising the charge of the plastic brigade could be on.
