IMPORTANT SEASON TICKET (ST) INFORMATION FOR TUESDAY 1ST SEPTEMBER AND SUBSEQUENT PURCHASING DAYS.


Please take time to read the points below regarding purchasing season tickets for season 2020/21.

You MUST be a current ST holder to be able to renew your ST between 1st September until 10th September – please bring your current ST card along with you

Current ST holders have until 7pm on Thursday 10th September to renew their current ST

PURCHASING YOUR NEW SEASON TICKET

Car parking will be on the main car park in front of the HML sponsored Jack Barrett Stand – all other entrance gates will be locked

The entry point for everyone through to the retail store is through gate 4 (next to the new ticket office) and through the rear concourse of the Farley’s Solicitors sponsored Clayton End Stand – This gate will be open from 12.30pm onwards

Tables and chairs will be set up within the Supporters Trust fanzone to sit and complete the ST application form for Season 2020/21

Only card or cheque payment will be taken in the retail store by the ST admin team – NO CASH SALES

All customers MUST wear a face mask within the retail store

The maximum number at any one time in the retail shop is 4 persons (2 being served and 2 waiting)

Inform the ST admin team whether you currently hold a seated or standing ST and in which Stand – we will try and accommodate your request wherever possible

The maximum numbers in each Stand are: Main Stand (360) – Whinney Hill Stand (390) – Clayton End (415) – Coppice Terrace (370)

When the Clayton End ‘sells out’ ST holders who had ST in Clayton End for Season 2019/20 will need to purchase a ST in the Coppice Stand

When the Main Stand ‘sells out’ ST holders who had ST in the Main Stand for Season 2019/20 will need to purchase a ST in the Whinney Hill Stand

It is highly likely that your current ST seat will not be available due to the Governmental and EFL requirements for social distancing - the seat will remain in the purchaser’s name in readiness for any future return to a full stadium capacity

We will accept telephone and email applications too but please be aware that due to the expected high volume of people completing their application in person at the stadium it may take a while for you to get through on the phones and email replies- PLEASE BE PATIENT

If possible, please attend in person to renew your ST between 1st September and 10th September – you will be guaranteed a ST renewal between these dates

There will be date/s arranged for the collection of ‘Covid Seat Cards’ which will give the Block, Row and Seat number allocated to each seated ST holder so that you know where you will be seated for each game until all Covid restrictions are lifted. Please check the website in the next week or so for further information on the dates selected


We will endeavour to make your ST renewal as painless as possible.

Please be patient with the ST admin team.

We thank you for your fantastic support.

Does anyone think we will sell anywhere near the reduced capacity in season tickets much as I would like to think so I don't think we will.

[VALAIRIAN]

Not sure Andy to be honest???

One hand, people who know that they will not get to many games, due to restrictions, might not bother??

The other hand, people will hand over their money regardless, for the benefit of the Club

[andyd]

Last season 1295 tickets sold but this figure included loyalty card holders, guessing probably around 1000+ or - actual season ticket holders you would have to have a 100% renewal plus 50%newbies would be fantastic for income and potentially longer term ticket holders but it's a big ask.

[VALAIRIAN]

That will include everything!!

Season Tickets, Life Members, Loyalty Cards, kids tickets Etc.

You are right about the 50% increase, we will have to see

[monkey hanger]

are loyalty cards being sold at the same time as ST or at a later date.

I doubt they will be sold until they know how many season tickets they can sell.

Even though it needs a rise in sales to sell out, the ST only costs 11 match day sales so I can see a lot of new ST holders even though some will be lost.

It may not go to full capacity to 2021/22.

Says on fishy site no loyalty cards will be sold for this season but this will be reviewed if/when the restrictions are lifted & we can get back to full capacity

I have a cracking seat in the main stand and paid for this seasons ticket before the end of last season. Whilst i will likely have to give my normal seat up until this virus quietens down it does leave me a little nervous that my regular seat gets lost in the wash and i may lose my seat....hopefully not.

When things get back to normal i.e. full crowds, away fans and no social distancing, then you'll go back to your normal renewed seat selection.

Renewed about 40 minutes queue time but when I came out queue right around car park good sign well done to club well organized.

[anmc]

Still quite a queue at 3pm, will try again tomorrow.

[Mr T]

Around 20 in the queue from 5pm onwards;

Wasn't a perfect day BUT hopefully minimal complaints in Accy Ob; Letters to the Editor!

[Crown Grounder]

I arrived about 1.20pm........long queue all round the edge of the car park. Many people rentewing multiple tickets for family and friends.......hence took about 2 and a half hours to get to the club shop. It was a sunny day good atmosphere. Only 2 people in the shop accepting completed forms and taking payment. Not sure why that was the case, maybe only two card machines? Anyway paid for my season ticket and requested my preferred stand. Was within the first 770 so the lady said I would get a pass for the Oxford league game which was why I came on the first day to renew.

The MD was round and apologised for the wait, but really it is what it is. I came on the first day so I would be eligible for an Oxford seat and new it would be busy.

I would think it will be quieter after Wednesday and Thursday. Just waiting for my pass to come for the Oxford home game and iFollow codes for Leeds U23's on the 8th Sept and Peterborough on the 12th Sept. Really looking forward to the start of the season now......
