Has anyone heard when the season tickets are going on sale,any information greatly appreciated

We need an announcement

What's so funny you plank,it's a similar question that needed a simple response,other teams have announced their season ticket plans

Well good for them. They probably have ticket staff too.

Seeing as we won't get to a game for at least 3 months, STs are probably the last thing on yhe clubs mind and rightfully so.

I’m sure they will be on their minds but at the same time they’ll probably see no need to rush. They’re going to have to sell them on some sort of pro rata basis you’d imagine and at best it looks like fans won’t be in for the first couple of home games. The lack of a ticket office to sell them from will delay matters also.

I wonder if they might end up just selling tickets game to game for this season. It may be a case that only 2,000-3,000 are allowed in early doors in to lockdown easing, so it would take a headache of choosing who gets in away, just doing them on some sort of game by game ballot.

Those who gave the money back will have a ST for this season. Those who asked for a refund won't. They'll then decide based on how many fans we can have whether to sell tickets to individual games.

I'm not convinced there will be season tickets this year. There is no incentive for the club to offer them when they know they will comfortably sell out whatever reduced capacity we are permitted when crowds return. Plus it removes any potential headaches caused by deciding which season ticket holders are allowed in (presuming they sell thousands and are initially allowed less in attendance) and working out refunds for games held behind closed doors, at neutral venues, postponed or cancelled. Better for them just to sell individual tickets at full price until we're allowed full capacity.

Nail. Head.

Or alternatively....


Bloody rubbish Wigan.

The more I think about it, the more I think it may be the case. Season tickets come at a reduced cost for the ticket holder than if they were to go to every game and pay on the gate, so it takes headaches on refunds away and they will be getting top whack for each ticket they sell. The kids season tickets at £40 or whatever they are must account for a fair percentage of our overall season ticket holders and if the club instead sells kids tickets at a tenner or whatever per match, they’ll be earning good money on both adults and kids tickets and can keep evaluating the situation with maybe the possibility of selling half season tickets.

I suppose the risk would be getting past season ticket holders back in the future but that risk is there anyway.

The more pertinent question may be whether they can afford to keep match ticket prices the same if capacity is reduced for any lengthened period.

I'm very surprised at the amount of SL clubs selling season tickets - the admin to deal with refunds alone will cost them thousands.

I'd have thought the club would wait to see the advice given by Gov't on crowds attending whether that's cinemas, theatres, rugby or soccer.
There is a lot of pressure on the Gov't and I'd imagine that we'd know something more specific before the season starts which will allow them to allow crowds to attend be it restricted in some way or other.

The more I think on it the more this makes sense, no one knows if and when sport will be opened certainly not immediately I would assume so to not sell ST would make for much less hassle given the issues with both covid and the DW ticket office.

Be nice if the club said one way or another though as the ticket office issue, certainly doesn't seem any closer to being sorted than it was last July.

Needs to be an announcement about the announcement firstly

According to Josie on the other forum she's had an email saying that the club hopes to make an announcement by the end of next week

Just an email

Poor do that, I’d have thought Rads and Lenagan would’ve had her on the blower discussing strategy. I loved the thread recently where she told somebody off for putting a rumour on about signings because she’d have Rads on the phone asking her who was leaking info because he knows she’s admin on that site

If that lad carries on there’s a risk he could be arrested and imprisoned under the West Stand.

What, no link for Matty B?

Some clubs have already put statements out to that effect. Until we get the fixtures published and a roadmap as to when fans will be allowed into the grounds I don't see any point in issuing the season tickets, just put your money away somewhere safe ready for when the season tickets are available.

Brilliant

Wise words.

She is not just an admin she knows all the players and their wives she is well respected by the players.

She may well be a lovely women (I don’t know her) but her reaction to that guys rumours on a rumours page was amusing. There definitely seems to be some sort of ‘I’m a super fan’ mentality to some of her posts but each to their own.

yep just got rebanned on

just found that. "I don’t want Rads phoning me & asking who it is ‘leaking’ information." - au contraire, I think that would make your year!
