Excellent gesture from the Club to keep prices the same (again). Also good effort to put in place procedures for any future restrictions.

Totally agree, was half expecting a price increase to help cover the no-doubt expensive playoff games. North Stand early bird is a bargain.

I think this is a brilliant move by the club. To launch this offer whilst the euphoria from Wembley is still fresh in people's minds, added to the yearning to return to some sort of normality, I can see this being very successful.

Mine and a few others I know are finding that there is nothing there once you get the reservation number. It keeps stating that nothing is registered under my name.

Not sure how you tried to get your ST, but I had the same issue about 2 years ago.

I got mine easily by going into ntfcdirect.co.uk, then used the ‘reserved seating’ tab and NOT the ‘season ticket’ tab, which I remember I used, when I got the issue.

Why? Who knows, obviously something with the way the seats are reserved??

I've always been of the opinion (with the Cobblers' tickets anyway) that picking up the phone is easier than going online.
Of course in these times, breathing down the phone might be an issue!  ;D

They explain all on the website. To sum up, you'll get tickets for whatever games are open to the puiblic. You'll get priroity over any other ticket holder and if matches are not able to be played in front of live crowds you'll get access to ifollow for them

Well if we get some like Man Utd at home, you get 1st choice of buying a ticket, and everyone who isn’t a ST holder has to wait, to see if there are any free, and get them on a 1st come, 1st served basis..

Although, the 1st time I saw Man U at home (as ST Holder) we were in a rather long queue, for quite a few hours. I thing I got there after 12, and got home after dark, I know quite a few wife’s (and husbands) were calling the Police, to see where their loved one was!!

Must admit thou, met quite a  lot of new friends, getting group coffees, lunch etc..  whilst we waited for the box office, to sort themselves out..

So, rumour has it that fans may be allowed back in from the start of the 20/21 season...

I've heard 25% of ground capacity, so if our capacity is approx 7800 then that would be 1950 fans allowed in...

I assume no away fans would be allowed so that would solely be 1950 home supporters in our case...

I would hope the club ensure the 1950 are made up of those that renewed/purchased season tickets once we hit the 1950 mark, rather than say, we sell 3000 season tickets & everyone then gets put into a lucky dip!

It seems obvious but you never know!

It's not going to be much of an incentive to buy a season ticket if you are not going to be allowed in the ground for the games. I would suggest a ration system would be fairest, getting one game in two or something similar.

No, I reckon us long term ST holders, who have supported the club thru thick and thin, should ALWAYS get priority and their seats.

I have had mine for over 20+ years, and paid literally tens of thousands of £‘S. So why should I lose my seat to someone who has just bought a seat this year, and who is jumping on the promotion feel good factor as “Johnny come lately’s”.

I know it sounds selfish, but would the club really want to piss off its financial bedrock?

Title: Re: Season Tickets
Post by: RowN on July 16, 2020, 15:05:27 pm
I believe the number is about 3,000 for a good season, but probably averages out at 2,500. Although this is only hearsay (queue crap music jokes!!)

It’ll be on a rota system as you can’t charge people the same price and one has access to more games than another.
That’s hardly going to encourage sales of new season ticket holders is it???

More of a worry are the rumours that it may be age limited as younger fans are less likely to be effected and older fans may be banned from attending until it’s safe !!

Sensible but who knows??

Just look at it as a charity donation to keep the club afloat. If you get to actually see some live action it'll be a bonus. I'm sure it'll be another strange season, especially when we hit the winter months. I think as long as no one has bought one thinking they are going to see a full set of home matches it'll be OK, although I'm sure they'll be some unhappy punters. Keeping the over 50's away should be a good starter for 10 and allow plenty of room ;D

Don't worry, I have no interest in attending in such conditions... sitting with a few old statuesque farts, no away fans, no atmosphere!
When we can travel away under normal circumstances, count me in!

Speaking of away games, still nothing on refunds of last season's away tickets since the statement s couple of months back!

The club were trumpeting the fact they'd sold 1000 season tickets......if you consider that 3000 would be a good total for us in League 1 it sort of suggests many people are still not buying due to the uncertainty, whether that be games taking place, or them feeling safe attending games that do actually take place.

I have to agree. We've been sticking to the guidelines pretty rigidly throughout lockdown, but when we've been out for a walk the vast majority of younger people have adhered closely to social distancing, waited patiently to pass where the pavement narrows, politely acknowledged when you've done the same etc.

It's the older people who've barged past, not waited, not kept a distance when it's more than possible to do so and generally been quite rude. Not all of them of course, but disproportionately more older people don't seem to give a toss.

I don't know if this is typical of the rest of the country but town centre, the retail parks and outdoor parks (BBQs everywhere) were definitely busier than they would have been pre-lockdown on Saturday.
I nipped to town and it was heaving, when it is usually moderately busy at best, unless it's Xmas.
I'm sure it is the backlash of being cooped up for so long.

Buy individual tickets late in the day where sales are weak - the East Stand for example.

I know I'm odd about this but I enjoy being comfortable without people around me (seat wise - above, below and to the side). I enjoy the atmosphere of the stadium, the peaks and troughs of crowd noise, the anticipation of something about to happen but I'm happy not to be right inside it (particularly where the serial moaners congregate).

So Kelvin wants us to spend £380 to renew our season tickets, I get he needs the cash flow BUT with the trend upwards on COVID-19 I can’t see supporters inside stadiums this year, what happens then?
With the season starting in September we will miss at least 10 home games, that equates to £170+ in refunds, I need to see some investment as to where all this season ticket money is going.

Personal choice, isn't it. I've done mine, fully aware that I might not get to see a large number of games but writing that off as, for want of a better word, a 'donation' to the club. Not everyone would want to or is in a position to do the same, but these are exceptional times and certainty is going to be hard to come by.

I agree with this, I haven’t renewed yet but intend to - being able to justify it to the wife when there is a high likelihood of not being able to go to any of the matches is a tough sell.

I'm more than happy to give my cash to the club to help with the loss in revenue of no fans in the ground

He has already mentioned that season ticket holders will be given priority should have reduced capacity at some point
We should also be guaranteed a match day pass to stream any games we cant attend due to Covid, believe they're waiting to confirm that but should happen. That's usually around £10 a pop anyway.

If there was a significant number of games missed then I can see them offering refunds again as well

No one is forcing anyone to buy a ST, i've done it knowing full well i probably wont see all the games from the stands but id be giving the club that money regardless so I'm happy for them to have it

We've renewed ours too. Hopefully we'll be able to go before long, but if you are on the fortunate position of being able to afford to renew I think it's the least you can do. We all expect the club to put a decent squad together and they can't do that without funds. In these difficult and, frankly, boring times I'll take a little vicarious pleasure for the coming season if that's all there is to have!

If you don't like what NTFC are doing, you look into what Sunderland are expecting their fans to do

Crewe have announced protocols for their season ticket holders, first few games behind closed doors, 30% capacity after that, and ‘hopeful’ that the EFL will allow streaming of games...

We’d be looking at 2400 max then?

As stated by others, you can’t criticise people for not renewing because you don’t know their financial circumstances? However, you have to be proud of everyone who has? All that outlay with no guarantee that you’ll get to see anything, proper supporters. Much respect to all of you ❤️

Serious question, if the games are behind closed doors and season ticket holders are given free access to ifollow are the club still going to give a refund?
Ifollow costs €6 per game, a match ticket value from a season ticket is about £17.50.

IFollow is usually £10.

I think if you bought a ST in the North stand before the discount period ended you'd be due about £1 back per game.

Fair point for other situations though.

I'd imagine they'll perhaps either offer a refund or offer free access to away games too?

I follow is a separate company and the games will be available to all for a tenner a pop

Bravo to those who have selflessly paid for a season ticket knowing that they are unlikely to get value for money.
Fair play to them

Pity the club haven't reintroduced the North Stand £199 deal. That would work out at just £199 per game!
Have I missed the ST deadline day? :-*

Anyone else finding that the season ticket page just hangs on an endless "Loading, please wait...." message?

Have any other season ticket holders received an email from the club asking them to fill in a questionnaire prior to allowing fans back into the stadium ? There is nothing on the official site about it that I can see and no one has mentioned it on here. I am just concerned it might be the latest scam.

I received mine yesterday and it has been sent to the email address that is unique for NTFC. Seems legitimate

It is sent by the club, not a scam.

Reading between the lines, if you go by yourself, you could find yourself stuck in a top/bottom corner of the stand opposite where you normally sit or have I got that wrong?  :(

I've not renewed this year, partly due to COVID-19 (can't see us all being allowed in) and partly due to the youngest child now playing Saturday football as well.

I'll pay for iFollow though (shame there is no season pass for that) and have purchased more shirts/merchandise than I would normally to pump some money into the club.

Didn't get a survey through, boo. I was waiting on it after KT mentioned it in a Q&A. Had to email the club after the news item today.

I'm just a solo ST holder so it's not the end of the world if I have to shuffle about and change seats a bit, but I do hope the club oblige me a back row seat somewhere so I can stand up.. the leg room offered doesn't accomodate my height  ;D ;D
