That's great news giantdaz I am delighted if that's the case as I said though lack of info on progress can't help ( look how Town went about it with admittedly much more resources behind it) The opening home game will tell us everything I suppose.

To be fair we can't compare anything with town as it's 2 different sports/budgets/manpower etc.

football is king every where and folk will go to football just cos its football...getting them to buy a season ticket for rugby is totally different.

True. I think they need to put restrictions on tickets to make sure people get them bought.

Town said that the first 10000 tickets only were on the offer so everyone rushed to buy them. I also created a buzz and everyone was talking as they had to act and get tickets asap, new fans and old. They then extended the offer to 15000 and I'm pretty sure that's about the number they have sold.

We could have done similar, first 5000 which we know we would sell at the early bird price then extend to 10000. We have gone for a time related cut off instead which I hope is just as effective.

be nice to have an update from the club on how sales are going

unlikely mind.

but you would have to think they have sold more than for last few years

They have, see my post further up

sold more season tickets than ever before..?

great stuff

For that time of year, which is usually the deadline.

So do you have any idea of how many have been sold DAZ, I mean the actual total sold now.

hazard a guess 4 to 6 k?!

Not up to now but at the (old) deadline it was just over 3k, that was 29th November. Bear in mind that we still have another 3 weeks before the deadline, there's also another big marketing push in the run up to Xmas too.

sold 4000 so far most of the lower tier is filled

crabtree aiming for 5k season ticket sales before xmas...

Any update on sales from those in the know? No information from club ( nothing new there) what's the strategy now to try and get more in before 1st game or is that job done? Are walk up prices just as normal ?

the club rarely give a figure out if ever

You would think it would be good PR though push more sales etc?
