Anyone bought a north stand season ticket?

Do you think you will have the option to visit the ragamuffins on the terracing on occasion?

I'm hoping so.

I've bought one next to my Grandad in the North Stand but my brothers will be on the Terrace. I will probably move between both during the game.

Buy one of those commemorative coins and you get free admission for life if you show it at the turnstiles. 

Flip heads or tales with it at the turnstile and if you win, you get in for free

Not sure how I feel about a 5 year ticket.

Great that the club get the cash now and lock that supporter in for 5 years but if everyone does it, surely they lose out on future income. Seems a lot like a payday loan.

Getting money upfront for future ticket sales rings a bell, don’t remember it ending well for another club……

Sorry to butt in...

Perhaps the club is thinking that people that can buy a 5-year ticket may be inclined to have a wee treat in hospitality every now and then, as they're not paying for their ticket that season?

I'd be advertising to the people that do this offering 'special rates' for tables, etc every season.

 

Get money off them twice!

That would require more joined up thinking than we've seen from the club's marketing team so far. Maybe they'll get there though.

I had heard a wee while ago that there were plans for a season ticket that basically had you in hospitality for every game and it was priced at roughly the same as the 5 year season ticket so maybe whoever told me was getting their wires crossed a bit.

If they've already been delivered probably expect them to be on sale for the last home game of the season, maybe even used for it? I suspect they'll be doing promo photos this week and released/unveiled next week.

 

Having strips out at the end of a season seems to be a good way to go about it based on last season.

Anyone know when the new kits will be released or will we have to complete some kind of quest or solve a complex puzzle to find out? 

End of the month.

Yeah they were doing a photo shoot outside Somerset yesterday with a bunch of old duffers in the new tops.

Especially when you remember a time when they used to get one delivery of about 100 kits, normally about November, which sold out immediately.

There used to be a gold season ticket where you were in a box with other ticket holders (think about 10 or so) and had access to bar pre match, but no food.

Was that not the old supporters association? You paid a yearly fee that allowed you in to hospitality pre and post match for drinks and you could pay an extra £10 or £20 a game to watch from a box I think. 
I may have made most of this up but I’m sure you had to be a paid member.

it kind of devalued hospitality slightly because you had people that had paid for corporate hospitality, all dressed up in a box and the other 4 were full of punters in Ayr tops.

Aye it was something along those lines.  As far as I was aware, the box they were in was designated for them and the usual hospitality punters were not in there.  Might be wrong, was a few years ago now.

No way Gorgeous Bob Reilly would miss getting his picture taken. He'll have been getting his bouffant teased in preparation.
