I've always had a season ticket but it does not make sense these days too but one as I'm not saving any money buying one due to shift work.. Shame as I'd like to support the club in as many ways as possible

If you'd like to support the club in as many ways as possible buy a season ticket regardless of what shifts you work or what savings you might make?

Surely paying on the day and going to MOST games I will pay nearly as much as a season ticket...and I will buy both home and away shirts adding money to the club...

Absolutely, can't knock it.

Wonder how many we manage to sell. How many 500 club members do we have now?

Don't think so. Someone else will know the numbers I'm sure.

Well it was close to as we only put out an extra 50 or something. So I'm guessing we sold around 450

We had an original approx 250 members, not sure how many extra members with latest element but at least 30 I believe. So say a total of 280.

Interesting announcement on pricing from Halifax today. [quoteThe Shaymen have announced that next season's admission prices have been reduced following relegation from the conference. Next season will see a charge of £199 for an adult season ticket which comes with a complimentary drinks voucher and a "bring a friend" ticket as well, which will allow another accompanying person in gratis for one game of the season. The match day admission will cost £15.

[/quote]
Their at the gate price is 25% more than Darlington but their season ticket prices are slightly lower.
They are obviously trying to encourage season ticket holders whereas Darlington are priced to not discourage new spectators. Understandable given the planned return to Darlington
I wonder how well their bring a friend ticket will be utilised

My opinion

I bet that you're not invited to any of their games as a friend (or any other teams)..Billy no mates who has to go onto everyone elses board to get the attention he craves.

Why can't spen or darlo_pete use quotes properly?

The bring a friend for free thing will be interesting to see if it has any benefit. Would be worth them keeping a proper track on when the tickets are used, and the uplift in crowd figures the following weeks.

Are there any additional Ts&Cs ie must be used for league games (not playoffs) and can only be used on the day and not redeemed for a match ticket (if an all ticket match).
