According to their twitter they haven't even sold 150 season tickets yet.... that's... erm. Not good, considering their average attendance last year was 841.

I'd genuinely like to know how many we have sold.

And I'd love to see the club try and hit 1,000 season ticket holders, with incentives to drive sales. Like the 250th, 500th, 750th and 1,000th etc person who signs up for a season ticket gets a free season ticket, and a totaliser so people can see how we are doing towards the target. Use social media platforms to drive it and create a big interest.

I personally think it would convince people who are sitting on the fence about buying one to get one, as we love smashing a target as a fanbase.

I'd assume we have about 700 or so.

That's exactly what Gateshead are doing, and it's stalled before 150... which isn't... a great look. They could be in real trouble with those sort of numbers.

If they are ever going to lure in disgruntled Toon fans now ought to be the time.
