ATLIS Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Our numbers are up in the air. We had about 500-700 season ticket holders last season with 150 PATG each game for home sections. We might break 1k this season, we might push 1.5k - who knows? Severely doubt we'll pull close to the 3k home and 2k away we did for the playoffs giving there were quite a few neutrals and locals who support a side elsewhere. Realistically we'll probably end up with 1100 home and a core of 500 away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 To be fair to the St Johnstone board, the bigger the gap they leave between last season's home performances and the opportunity to buy season tickets, the better, in terms of renewal numbers.

Ours are as follows :- Adult :- £285 Consession :- £200 Under 16s :- £75 Family deal (2 adults & 2 under 16s) :- £650 Very competitive pricing from us for a change which works out at £15, £10 and £4 per game and a £70 saving on a family deal. Family deal is a shocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz FFC Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 21 hours ago, Swello said: Bought mine today - £315 is decent, considering it comes with a Kid's ticket too. Buying it online was really smooth considering we've just started using the ticketb*****d platform - better than when I got my first one and you had to stick your head through a window inside the main stand and disturb a secretary.... In the opposite to what the Saints lads are saying - 'Well have become miles more professional in the last few years in terms of how they market stuff...most unlike us. We are joining ticketmaster this summer for all our ticket needs. Glad the transaction is smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thistle_do_nicely Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 We're still in that wee limbo before GTF day - I'm expecting that we'll have decided on prices before the end of the month since we'll need to start getting the ST money in as soon as possible for the rebuild, but it'll be a headache trying to find sweet spot in the pricing that doesn't piss off existing holders too much and still gives us a decent enough amount of money to play with for the coming season. I'll probably renew unless they take the piss tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season (including I think half season tickets) total season tickets sold were 13,500. I think last season's number is expected to be exceeded by the start of the new season but who knows? When Hibs had sold 9,500 for this season they said 700 were new season ticket holders so suppose it depends how many existing season ticket holders drop out. The date existing season ticket holders seats are released for general sale (and seat swaps) is 2 June so suppose there might be more renewals by then and then lots of seat changes! And plenty might just renew close to the new season start but best seats might have gone by then? Seats for walk up Hibs supporters are in short supply so for 90% of games last season Hibs opened up part of the South (i.e Away) Stand for Hibs fans.

Hopefully we'll have the West and South stand full of home fans this season and it's just the East and North stand for away fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today was the last day that renewals could guarantee their seat and the general sale starts at 7pm tonight, meaning that existing season ticket holders won't have the chance to move seats before new ST holders nab them. There are likely to be some decent seats available this evening and that could persuade a few more people to buy, particularly as they can pay it up over four months. It's good marketing, but a bit crap for people who wanted the chance to move to better seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its made a huge difference with fan engagement, night and day difference from a year ago. We actually have 4 people in the marketing dept now, one man was doing both the marketing & hospitality during MJ's tenure..... changed days indeed.

PauloPerth Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 See for all the talk about how poor St Johnstone are at sending out renewals, engaging with fans etc; as true as it is, there's not a club in the country which comes close to Saints for pricing for kids and families. 2 adults plus FOUR under 12's for £385 is fucking phenomenal value.

Totally understand the point being made here and no one would doubt his commitment but the club have just retweeted something that refers to "terrible football, dwindling crowds in an empty stadium" and a team "that can only go downhill." As marketing strategies go it's hardly John Lewis at Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
