canadablade Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 On this season's performances, both Buxton and Hinds have been better than Woods. Maybe thats why only 585 season tickets have been flogged so far. The futures not bright, it must be blue and white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegasus Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Just heard this on Radio sheffield as i was coming to work- HOT out of the sheffield wednesday press office!! Sheffield Wednesday have announced that sales of season tickets are 25% up on a like for like basis on last year!!!!! They have sold a massive . . . . . . ... wait for it . .. . . really- wait for it.. 558!!!!! Everyone- i think we should stand and give them a round of applause for this amazing feat!! Considering that season ticket sales were so poor last season, then this is a none story. Season ticket sales were more than 50% down last season at this stage? If they were to say that sales were up on the previous season then that would be worth the paper the press release was written on. So in actual fact they are more than 30% down on the season before (I can't do the maths but it will be more than 30% even) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earwiggo Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 ST prices may well still be tinkered with even further. Lots of Owls are not happy with the present price situation, and Strafford may well review it again. Anyway, it's what happens on the pitch that matters, and if Wednesday do great next season, I don't care if it's in front of 49,000 or 4,900.

Anyway, it's what happens on the pitch that matters, and if Wednesday do great next season, I don't care if it's in front of 49,000 or 4,900. The £4m increase in the budget that's been talked about - is this regardless of how many season tickets are sold, or based on the talked about 16k target? In other words, if you only get say 10k ST holders, does the budget drop significantly, and likewise if you get 20k, is it to increase to £5m? Just seems odd to be seeing that figure quoted, regardless of the club's income... and perhaps not a wise move, as other clubs may think Wednesday have got more money to spend, and hold out for a better price (if the target is under contract)?

al_partridge Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Announcing sales at this stage is ridiculous anyway, did they really expect people to be queuing to renew on the first day? That said, they've sold 558 plus whatever they've sold this week, before they've even sent out the renewal forms so it's not all that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to renew online or go into the shop. I've moved from the South Stand into the Kop, bang in the middle, great seats and great price at £184. Staff were great, got a grand tour of North and Kop to choose seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
