I don't think they'll last very much longer full stop.Certainly adult ones.

| If anybody has got any spares they would be willing to sell it would be much appreciated. Dont mind paying whatever price. The current system buying tickets for away games should be done via a loyalty points scheme. I dont have a season ticket yet for the first time in years this season but attend nearly every game home and away.

Think it will be fair if you offer it to one of these first if your selling on here

| Quote: 21-12 "Maybe in future the club should follow the lead of many football clubs and have a priority sale, this means the ticket office record the away games and cup games for which you have bought tickets for and games like this and Cup semi's/finals would go on sale to people with the most loyalty points first.
For example for Good Friday it would go
Day 1
* ST holders that have recorded 10 or more away games from last season
Day 2
* ST holders with 6 or more away games from last season recorded
Day 3
*All ST holders
Day 4
*General Sale if any left.'"
Thing is though there are loyal fans who go to away games but pay on the gate or buy a ticket when they get there. Didn't you do that at Bradford? That wouldn't count, people would have to buy through the club so it wouldn't work.
I say leave it as it is. RL needs to allow the demand to grow.

| Quote: Deano G "Everyone raves about Saints stadium and I'm sure its very nice, but the small capacity means that lots of fans won't get to see the game live.
It would be too small for us clearly, but if Saints can sustain 10k+ season ticketholders going forward then it's going to be too small for them.'"
Its only going to be an issue when we play Wigan and Wire though really other games are unlikely to sell out, certainly not as far in advance as this is likely to as no other clubs are going to want to bring the large numbers. For the sake of having more people at 2 games a season its hardly worth worrying the ground is to small.
If further down the line we are selling out regulary for most league games then it is something that would need to be looked at.

| All the big clubs should have a minimum stadium capacity of 20,000 really. That way there a good size for internationals, semi-finals as well as coping with demand for big games such as this.

As a matter of interest to me, does anyone know how much more expensive it would have been for Saints to look at a 20k capacity? was it realistic?
I certainly think LP is nailed on as a CC semi final venue when Saints aren't involved, and there's two clubs on this side of the Pennines involved.

| I wonder what will happen if we draw Saints away at the screwfix in the first round proper of the Challenge Cup, when all season ticket holders are entitled to one free ticket?

I do pay on the gate at away games, but if we had a loyalty system I would buy a ticket. At the moment there is no reward for loyalty and games like Saints away and Cup finals seem to be a free for all, it shouldn't be that way, for example, Wembley, there was probably people that hadn't attended an away game all season, stood in the queue in front of people that hadn't missed. Loyalty should be rewarded.

That's been scrapped this year. As it is, they'd just have to set a limit as Barrow did the other year (there is actually a percentage the visiting club is entitled to as per the RFL operational rules, but that doesn't include any league games).
