I was going to buy two tickets, one for myself and one for my 18 year old. So £400 plus £360 and they added on £91, which is due with first installment, so next month would have paid £188. Fuck that.

First payment was due 30 days from application.

I think someone else stated it was around £60 for a single adult ticket.

It’s a bit of a nightmare isn’t it
Adult ticket should be replicated elsewhere and both tickets go on exchange

Should be like £10 extra to upgrade your FZ ST to a one off ticket in an other area of the ground.

Agree doesn't feel right to ask them to pay full price but there needs to be some sort of cost involved.

Does anyone know if the ground is open for potential ST buyers to have a proper look from the seat they wish to purchase?

I've already moved, but would like to have a gander, just to be sure.

I don't think they've ever done this but its always struck me as a good idea.

Was sat by a couple of NHL (ice hockey) season ticket holders at a game in Sweden. They were saying before they get invited in every year to look round and see where they want to sit, look at the hospitality options, get to sample the food & drink outlets and that kind of thing.

Had a look at the map for the first time today. Many new seats sold?

not really or you buy a st for an uninterested child and your ticket is then cheaper, there needs to be some additional cost - even if say £10 per game to balance the difference

Agreed

£6.50 per game is the difference between a FZ season ticket and a standard zone season ticket. That should be the charge for moving to the standard zone at games where the child can't make it, no more, no less.

I still think moving adults out of the FZ on a midweek evening match is going to leave it looking even emptier than it did this season

You just know King will charge £37.

I mean I think £10 would be 'reasonable' but we shall see. Would be good to get this communicated.

I reckon I'll make about 12 or so with my 5 year old twins and would happily pay £10 for say another 5 I make myself on my own (night games). I'll never make 23 due to distance and holidays, etc.

Personally, I think anything over the £6.50 would be unreasonable. You have committed to a season ticket, you should be paying season ticket prices. It isn't the fans choice to be moving into a different zone when their child can't make it, the club are enforcing it.

I see they've added updated the map with labels on the hospitality blocks and, helpfully, a line showing where the physical barrier between 12 and 13 is.

Not as many as they were hoping I’d imagine. People renewing won’t be in a rush as they already have their seats. There were a lot more new season tickets sold last time due to people wanting to be guaranteed tickets for future Wembley trips.

Its chicken and egg really. See more season tickets = more income = more squad investment = more success and back round to season ticket sales until we have stability in the Premier League

I remember doing that at the Ricoh, Summer 05 when STs were on sale. There was a "test" event too.

Last time I checked out a seat beforehand was when we moved to St Andrew's.

Not me.

I was all over SS once it was announced. Found it quite easy to find out which bits of the ground were safe standing.

Where have you moved from?

Where have you inadvertently moved to?

Looks like sales of new seats are going pretty well to me
May be that it’s not new people but current people moving but won’t know until 9/6

That’s what I was thinking . I’m not sure there will be much difference in ST to last season , just people moving .

Should be easy enough. I'd suggest phoning ticket office rather than emailing. Probably have to wait a while (if it says there are more than a couple of people ahead if you in the queue, maybe best try again at a quieter time).
Ticket office staff have done a great job on this sort of thing whenever I've contacted them (e.g. for one-off ST moves for a game to attend with visiting relatives) over the last year or so. Especially considering how many idiots they must have to deal with

I fucking hate percentages in this sort of scenario.

If 100 people renewed, that's a 'massive' 24 new ST holders.

Give us the numbers CCFC.

Not just some meaningless stats that a fifth year maths O level sitter could generate on a Casio calculator (showing my age here).

Promoting but it would be useful to see the total number.

They seem intent on totally complicating things

Can't see it being 100 lol , you'd imagine of the 19000 ST holders several thousand renewed yesterday .. youd imagine 1-2k new ST holders at most which would be impressive

Just flip the usual narrative on its head, go in there, but sit down.
