Are there any posters up around Hamilton advertising this deal? Maybe someone with the necessary skills could do one up and folks could print them off to put up in their office, local pub, etc. Minimal effort required, and it would probably make a difference.

Porcupine, I'm pretty sure I got my last season ticket two years ago there and then.

As regards sitting where you like, maybe in some parts of the ground but my row is always pretty full and I've had to move away a few times recently.

Same here SC, our section is full of regulars having been there since the stadium opened, so keeping the same seat IS a preference. SaturdaySanny may be someone who likes to sit all on his own ;)

Whilst we all know that the Club will never sell thousands of seasons, it is good to know you are in the same seat, assuming you want to be there with your mates/ fellow regular supporters.

Here's another 'negative' one for those looking for an argument. Far too many seats have a Reserved sticker on them from years back, and really should have have been removed to show what was available for PATG or occasional visiting neutrals. If any one had the initiative at the Club to do this, or are looking for some volunteers who would do it armed with a razor blade and a copy of this seasons confirmed seating plan, then they can contact me by PM. Not holding my breath though :(

I just phoned to reserve my season tickets, and was told I can post a cheque to keep my existing seats.

No problem.

Yes but are they able to post out season tickets? It doesn't seem so.

I didn't ask.

I have to go to the ground at some point, if I'm going to use them, so what's the issue?

My original post suggested we should be selling at least 800 season's based on price alone. From waht BB says, this looks encouraging at 673 ( assuming in numerical order0. i spoke the other day to another supporter who normally buys three/four adults and he was unaware of this Friday's cut-off date for existing seats. Like many he was waiting on the usual letter inviting renewal. Club must remember that not all our support are on internet/Twitter etc. but with those renewing over the next month we may well yet see 1000 Seasons sold. £150K up-front before the seasons starts should be a good boost for the Football Club.

OR :shock: is it the Stadium Company who keep the income???

£150k assumes they're all full-price books. My guess is it's more like 50-50.

I think it will be full priced adult tickets. Someone posted on twitter last week a pic of their kids tickets and one was numbered 00751. Maybe they start at 00700.

With nothing to talk about coming from the Club (transfers etc.) we can continue to speculate on the season ticket sales. SC probably has called it correct, with Child's tickets starting at Number 700. It's totally illogical to have had both sets of books numbered together from 001 onwards, but then again, it's Accies.
The Child ticket should be flying off the shelves at £16 for the season. Great Early Christmas presents :P

Just a pity we could not get some atmosphere going at substitutions, like the Germans and others do in Europe, by the announcer shouting the first name of the player coming on, and the crowd then shouting the surname. Probably we are all too shy for trying something different. :oops: Any thoughts?

£14, come on £16 would be a total rip off!

I don't see the announcer thing working - "Coming on, number 14, LOUIS...oh please yourselves!"
