Today the club have announced that 4076 passes have so far been sold with 86% paying full price. Hudge is hoping for 5000 before Xmas. With 2000 previous pass holders yet to re-new, could we unbelievably beat last years 5500 holders for the championship?!

I haven't got mine yet but I will be after Christmas and I will be taking the discount

Think they'll be quite a few who can't go every week so buying a pass wouldn't be worthwhile. 6000 every home match would be massive for the club.

I haven't bought mine yet, has anyone bought online or is it the same omnishambles as usual?

I haven't decided if I'll pay full price or not, given that I've just had to fork out for a rock I might not.

4000 memberships so far is a cracking result, especially as some key members of the posse on here have still to take the plunge.

I reckon membership this season will end up on a par with last year.

Me and Mrs Pick Your Ring won't be investing in the home shirt though due to its similarity to last year's, which we wore with pride and false hope but to no avail. We will give the away shirts a crack this year instead, as they look absolutely stunning.

I bought a blue hoodie XL last season online and received a white babygrow a ladies t-shirt size 8 and a mug

I remember agreeing with somebody on here when they said talk of 5000 was unhelpful. The way things are looking now, it might happen. Impressive response from the fans.

That's very impressive I hope you can break the 5000 barrier. I thought you'd struggle to sell anywhere near that amount.

Sadly I cannot afford an season pass as things have changed for me in the past couple of months but looking forward to the summer bash and sunny Blackpool.

I won't be going to 4 of the regular season games, so I thought that when I renew my pass on-line I would take up the 25% offer. You are right the website won't allow it (unless I also didn't have the patience to find it.)

It looks like if you want the deal, you have to request it in the shop. I wonder if they have a special naughty boys queue so "real" fans who pay full pops, will know and can sneer and throw things at the cheapskates.

No naughty boys queue. The offer from the club is to people who cannot afford the full price. Fortunately, for the finances of our club, most fans have chosen to pay the full whack. You obviously choose to pay less because you will miss some matches, fair enough but why make such a big issue of things? If you cannot sort things out on line just give the club shop a ring and they will sort you out with equal politeness whichever option you have chosen.

I suspect from the unpleasant remarks you made you are actually feeling a little guilty about your decision.

My comments were only tongue in cheek I assure you. Sorry if for some reason it riled you up!

I think the initiative from the club has been very clever and has really helped to galvanise the support base and the proof has been in the number of passes sold already and also those who haven't taken the discount.
