15000 plus to 12000 is a 20% drop. 
 

Would  not surprise if there was such a drop.

I'm sure early sales last season were boosted by some fans thinking we will probably be championship 

Less likely they'd buy as things stand right now

We'll call it the "Sharon not sacking Evatt earlier" factor.

Ah. I meant in the two recent games. Pre Schumacher doesn't exist in my head 🙂 

We would have won at Wrexham under Evatt.😁

Probably. 

Chance folk take I suppose. 

If we were to qualify for the play offs, then folk may be thinking..

If we won them, then folk may be regretting..

All these silly kick-off times won't help either!

I think the coming season was always the season that would be impacted by that. Especially as so many games are also on Sky. Midweeks a real drag for me.

Do not think many people would have realised the impact till this season.

Last year's Early Bird period was 2nd February - 13th April.

This year's Early Bird is 24th February - 22nd March.

Sold 80% in 40% of the time, technically!

Firesticks don't help either.

Some times you really do have to question making the effort to trapse over when you can just whack it on the dodgy and a few tinnies at home.

It definitely makes my decision on nights games a lot easier.

That's what I was getting at earlier on but CBA looking the dates up. I thought it was a bigger window last time. 

Sharon with her business head on.

Fogarty jnr got me a firestick and had it dodgied  up. We've watched half an away until the signal went down and a Liverpool match. Not my idea by the way. It's not the temptation I thought it was going to be to be honest. As usual beer and pubs are boss.

Night league matches I go to, because the pub runs a bus that's handy for me.

Yeah, I probably wouldn't be arsed driving down from Carnforth on my own for night games, so I'm also grateful that Lancaster Whites run their coach.

12000 season tickets sold now 👍

And no sign up to now of early birds being extended. Is Sharon sticking to her guns, or bluffing ?

FWIW Idon't think she bluffs. She reckons our quality under SS is worth the extra.

Hope she's right.

It's not her decision!

Still another 50 hours to go on sale. Closes at 1pm on Saturday, according to young John in the TO.....

 

 

I'm in 🤠

Yes, sorry. On this occasion I was referring to FV in general as the decision makers.

Seems odd the early bird finishes before end of Month pay day!

Suppose there's the DD option if you want to go down that route.

DD more popular this year 

Couldn't do mine online as it wouldn't recognise my email address, despite it being correct.

Anyway, quick phone call to the Ticket Office and they sorted it.

Fair old run that, coach sounds a good idea  I go Cleveleys to Barrow for a coaching gig on a midweek night all year round, takes a bit of doing in depths of Winter.
