Season Ticket Discussion 2024/25

[Del Woppio]

Fucking hell, they must think we're stupid

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Kenny will be along in a minute to tell you it's a coincidence and there are reasons...

 

[Johnny75]

They're just fucking cunts

Here I am...

If that is the case the only reason is because the bloke behind the decision making is a cunt.

Happy to help as always x

 

[Lycan]

That's absolutely hilarious.

15/16K max I reckon.

 

[Lycan]

The system isn't that 'new' either. It worked fine last season

 

[Kenny]

Probably ditched it for a new Shi designed system

I had a Wolves fan DM me the other day trying to explain the situation of Shi/Fosun.

You guys absolutely have my sympathy. One thing I would say, is I remember at Blackpool it got very toxic between people who kept going and people who boycotted. Try and avoid that, at the end of the day some people need that release on a Saturday afternoon no matter how silly prices are and how destroyed the game has become. Whether you boycott or continue, you can make your voice heard inside and outside of the stadium.

This guy "Jeff Shi" I know almost nothing about, but he is just a custodian of your football club. Your club was there 150 odd years before he came along and it will be there after he fucks off. The fans are the heartbeat of the football club. If it all goes to pot will it be Jeff Shi rebuilding it, or what it be thousands of diehard Wolves fans forming a phoenix? The owners can't take away the soul of the club.

Good luck in your fight against these bullshit ST prices and bullshit ownership.

There's a difference between us and Blackpool in that the Oystons(?) took out huge amounts of money from the club on the back of promotion whereas our owners have invested significantly into the club.
Yes the price rises are shit, yes they've turned off the taps of spending, yes the ground has seen better days but we are also having the most successful period since the 70's.

I understand.

All I would say is success shouldn't come at a price where the people from the community who built the club can't afford to go and feel detached from the club they love.

Maybe I'm weird but if my club (Oxford U) having success meant being taken over by some Saudi Sheikh and the soul being ripped out of the club I'd hate it. Would rather be solid but retain the soul.

 

[Derby Wolf]

Chap on the Mix said he missed the deadline and rang up on and they allowed him to renew over the phone. I doubt that flies in previous years.

Don't tell him that he gets very offended

Its scandalous and yes, totally hilarious.

It seems that they don't want us to discover the number of ST renewals and are hoping to wait to see how much they can mask their cock-up and massage the final figure through offering STs to the waiting list.

I fear there will be Chelsea fans all over the ground with far more match tickets going on sale via various websites.

 

[SSB]

On the positive, they’ve not put the away season tickets up!!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

[Johnny75]

1. I absolutely do, yes.

2. I think we'll make more money over the course of next season on ticket sales including STs. Prices have significantly gone up, sales won't drop off *that* much to result in us not making more, that's obvious. They don't give a fuck about discontent, else they wouldn't have done it in the first place!!

3. I agree, which renders your point about discontent redundant!

Still think this?

Still think Jeff has 'won' given today's news that the ST uptake rates aren't available and moving seats is going to be very hard work?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Of course, it strengthens my position!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I think sales have dropped off way more than you thought 24 hours ago...otherwise why wouldn't we announce it like we have done every other year, and why are we stopping people looking at the stadium plan for themselves?

Possibly, however when I suggested them pushing the Gomes signing through was a ploy I was told I was cynical, paranoid or a conspiracy theorist or that there are other reasons, yet firm conclusions are being drawn on this?

But my point regarding us making more cash is strengthened, they'll make a shit tonne more money now in those CAT A games if we have fewer ST holders, each non ST seat will make about double what it did before.

Obviously lower crowds against the smaller clubs will be offset against that.

Atmosphere will be worse as there'll be more away fans in the Wolves end, but Shi doesn't give a fuck about that.

I wonder how they'll sell to the potential new ST holders, they'll surely allow them to look at a stadium plan!!

Agreed.

With regards to the stadium plan being unavailable for fans looking to relocate, it's quite the lengths to go to in the purely in the interests of saving face. Bought a product online for about £1.5K and expecting you might get some kind of image on the ecommerce site? Nah. We'll just get the seller to try and describe it to you over the phone while you make a time-limited decision. That's the UX you expect in 2024
