well we did 3,100 last year in the end so only 400 ish didn't renew. With more seats up for sale I'd love to see another 1,000 but anything over 3,500 is another 10% + increase which would be impressive.

Hands up, I didn't renew this year. Quite sad after having one for 10+ years but now living a 2 hour drive away, missing so many games last year and with more games on Sky it just doesn't make sense financially to commit anymore. The same was true last year but I couldn't bring myself to not have one! Hopefully can still accrue enough loyalty points to get to the games I want to

I would guess some of those who haven't renewed still will, obviously their reserved seat will be gone, but nre, habbin and m'stand will have plenty who leave it till last knockings

Tbf, 2,700 renewals is a very good effort considering where the team has finished in the league for the last two seasons and the lack of transfer activity so far.
Be interesting to see if there are any announcements this week to kick start the general sale period.
Ultimately, the squad they put together needs to show it can offer more than just the perennial relegation struggle and with player recruitment slow to get going, that's gonna be a huge challenge, to say the least.

I'd say player recruitment is the same as it always is at this time of year, to be honest. Player contracts generally expired at the end of May, so we're only 4 days in to them being either out of contract and a lot of them will be on holiday at the moment. Things tend to pick up across June, and get really into the thick of it July. A signing or two would be nice though, even if just a few contract renewals.

Although players are free to agree moves for next season ahead of contract expiry, standard contracts officially expire at the end of June.

Not sure how I missed U14s are free! That stand should fill up... The danger I think is a parent buying a ticket, taking on x2 or x3 free U14 then not bothering with quite a few games... This is where freeing up your seat if you can't attend would be important...

Yes, it's just the one. I'll probably rotate children.

Incredible to sell 3,000 season tickets off the back of 2 close shaves with relegation and no activity in the transfer market as yet.
