Reading Rebel Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Can anyone from the management give any indication of when supporters can expect season tickets to be on sale? I know it's only the end of June but I'm sure there must be supporters who will need to budget for this outlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windsor Rebel Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Unwise to announce anything before July 19th, as we need to see how the data affecting the restrictions pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a problem just as long as we know that the 19th July is the earliest date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelade Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 RR, clubs need to be careful as it seems non league football is being treated differently to other sports, nothing stopping 600 people watching a game on a park pitch but stadiums are different. We have everything in place but we don’t want to sell ST’s and then have a capacity lower than sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishadrian Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 A lot of clubs in our league are already selling STs and saying that if there is a substantial decrease in allowed gates then first priority will be given to those who have purchased a ST .

I can't see it happening but if for some reason capacity is reduced to below what we normally sell in season tickets i.e. 400+ (which I think is what we sold last season) I would imagine that we will be in a pretty dire position financially. The saving grace could well be that as we are classed as elite we would come under the same capacity rules as the premiership and football league clubs.

But what happens if the restricted capacity is lower than the number of ST sold? Imagine having bought one but then still not being guaranteed entry or having to enter a ballot!!! We’re the doing the right thing by waiting until after July 19th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the increased numbers of people being double vaccinated by July 19th I really cannot see stadium attendances being any less than they are now. Of course there are no guarantees and if the club are prepared to wait another 4 weeks to start selling tickets then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtis Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I recently bought tickets for the Sandown races on 3rd July, when the restrictions were extended to 19th July capacity was reduced to 50%, and I was refunded as I wasn’t one of the first 50% to purchase a ticket. Nothing is guaranteed, but the likelihood is the club will be permitted a minimum of 50% of capacity, which I am pretty certain is a fair bit more than our average attendance.

Same for my Euro tickets. When the restrictions came in they started to cancel tickets and refund people. So far, I still have my tickets, but who knows if that will be the case when that game arrives. This is a chance, we buyers take. If I didn't want to have that not going probability still going on, I would have cancelled myself when they gave me the chance. I chose to gamble on being allowed to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
