It's 2 years so around April 2020 will be when those 500 club people need to renew.

Correct. 500 club tickets that weren't extended at either of the 2 option points will expire at the end of the 19/20 season.

With the 500 club and the early bird sales we currently have not too shy of 800 season ticket holders for next season.

Next big push should be to hit the 1,000 mark. Be a huge achievement to hit the number after three administrations, being demoted down to Step 9 and having played out of town for 4.5 years etc etc.

The club have been great in letting us know how many we have sold, be nice if we could really push to get the numbers of season tickets sold for 2018/19 upto 1,000. If it was set as a target I reckon everyone would get behind it and we'd achieve it. We're pretty good at smashing targets that are put in front of us. Plus the pay in three installments option will hopefully encourage people to buy one.

Also it would be nice to have something to talk about other than our ex manager and his current club, as despite the constant stream of good news coming out of our club people seem more interested/obsessed in talking about him and his new club. Could not care less personally

1,000 season tickets would be unbelievable. Could have crowds of 1,700+ consistently next season

Agree with this. A target gives us something to aim at and if we push it like we did boost the budget then we could really shift quite a few. I would love to see 1000 sold.

Considering we have 300 or so 500 club members.

Have any of those 500 STs expired yet?
I have one, I haven’t extended it and has one more season to go.
Ah that's a pleasant surprise - I thought it was 2 more seasons to go at least
Yep I've got one and there is definitely 2 more seasons left. Very impressive ST sales and shows that people are really buying into TW and his style of play. I can see our crowds increasing this upcoming season.

Is there any way we can do a similar totaliser for season ticket holders as the boost to budget one? People like to see targets and progress so it could spur more people on to get one?

The early bird season ticket offer has now ended, I assume that season ticket sales will not go up much from their current levels.

Darlo Pete is still posting, I assume that yet more drivel will be spouted on a daily basis.
