But what the Chadster really wants to know was if ‘99 was one of those in there renewing

Buy a ticket in the shop from a member of staff behind the counter with a PC - charged an extra tenner…. but buy it in the shop from a member of staff in front of the counter with an iPad - no tenner 🤷‍♂️

How very dare you, they have an office in Lytham too if you don’t mind.

League 1 Huddersfield have sold a smashing 13,000 so far.

’Smashed’ is a spectrum, I suppose.

So if we’ve ‘smashed’ last year’s tally we are presumably well on for c11,000 sales, considering we were only a few hundred off 10k last season.

Wait, this club isn’t in a mess? Well, it’s certainly a view.

Personally I think by the time they go off sale in late August sales will pretty much be where they were last season (obviously 9 thousand and something is nothing other than pitiful).

At the end of early bird it was 7,300: https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/23563557.blackburn-rovers-reveal-2023-24-kit-details-season-ticket-figures/

Date wise (obviously the caveat is they were put on sale much earlier and you were way past claim your own seat/early bird price by then

I presume he'd be best waiting until claim your seat deadline passes after this weekend, as currently all present ST holders will be greyed out if they've renewed or not.

Swag says no funding issues, and I believe we aren't particularly close to FFP limits (plus Raya cash to come too).. so presumably we won't be selling players (Sammie wanting a move aside) and in fact we'll be spending a decent amount? If not, why not?

Still there

The one showing Shearer scoring on VE Day. It surprisingly wasn’t followed with ‘Remember this? Well it won’t be anything like that next season but please buy your season ticket!’

‘Over 6,000’ in the social media post they put out yesterday. So hope they are busy this week with an eighty quid rise scheduled for Saturday…

Waggott speaks enough, it’s BS most of the time but he speaks, I certainly don’t need to hear any more from the plonker. However, the fella who actually wields the power outside India at BRFC says nothing and hasn’t done for a decade. A shirking of responsibility and accountability.

There will be segregation between the official allocations, but the majority of tickets are sold openly so you’ll have fans buying independently and so mixed together.

Even if it doesn’t turn a profit, so what? What’s the outlay really in the grand scheme of things when you think of the ridiculous sums football clubs piss up the wall? So as long as the cover charge and advertising within comes close to breaking even, then that should do. How about providing a decent match day experience to your supporters?

A World Cup in a region’s rainy season. Nice one ICC 👏

Yeah maybe our Elliot should hold off from applying for The Times’ fast stream just yet.

Parson will be chuffed.

Such a bizarre football club.

Oh don’t doubt that but it will be another summer of farce , this time with them embarrassing their own execs - maybe even Reg of the Rovers will see the light (or not).

I’m glad it’s out there in the press, on the record, from the CEO himself that the owners have been asked for funds (and not just funds to keep the lights on). It’s in the LT that they can fund if they wish to. So either we’ll see a decent budget (as we aren’t close to FFP due to sales and they never refuse a cheque either) or we won’t - but no excuses can be trotted out for them by the likes of Swag this time.

Really? I’d be amazed if they chose that.
