Let's keep the number going up for the final week! Would be great to get to11,000! Considering we're In the Championship that really is a great effort from the fans. Skoosh the league like I think we will and the feel good factor of Premiership return could easily see us around the 13k mark for next season!

Well done everyone who has backed the team.

Hopefully a win this weekend and a couple new players next week and we will reach 11,000.

This team deserves our support !

Absolutely brilliant effort but I'm sure we can reach the 11,000 before the first home game, as they say, one final push should do it.:thumbsup:

That's a great amount heading into our 3rd season in the 2nd tier. Pretty sure if we finally get news of Liam H's signing it would encourage the waiverers to commit and push it to 11k.

Great number which will surely go up if we can get a couple more signings.

Great effort by the fans considering we are still in the championship and our highest ever season ticket sales are around 11,200 i believe!

Hopefully if we romp the first few games and make a few marquee signings, that number should be up again!

Always said, winning things gets bums on seats!!

Great effort .... For me it will be really interesting to see how much this affects our walk up support. I would imagine that many of the new ST holders have been regular or semi regular walk ups in the past two seasons. If they are replaced in the walk up numbers by folk tempted to return to being walk ups after being stay aways we could be looking at regular home crowds of 12 to 13 thousand.

Whilst a season of stagnation across the city-highly possible under their current business model- could see Los Yambolinos dip under that tally. The great awakening that they are no longer moderately (Mercer, Pieman) or extremely (Romanov) financially doped up, should kick in soon.

remember as well that the yams were basically told that they had to buys ST's to help stop the club from going bust. It was very desperate times for them. I remember Alex Salmon bought a few, Ryan McGowan bought about 8 etc.

Closing in on 2/3rds of the home stands sold. If we get a good start and are doing well at Christmas, half-season ticket take ups might make the stadium look really busy in the run-in.

Spot on pal and let's no forget the £100 ST's in the seated enclosure bought by the young yobs with union jacks!

They are due a downturn of fortunes very soon by my reckoning, how good would it be if their attendances tailed off and ours grew over the next couple of years! It could really happen 😎👍

No bad for a team the yams supposedly "killed off" in 2012. I recall many yams gloating at how they had "killed us" and how our club would wither away and the fans would walk away in numbers.

I wonder if sections of seats that aren't available haven't actually been sold, it's just that they are reserved for pod sales.

Marvellous total though and shows you that the feel good factor is back.

I'm sure last seasons ST holders have until close play Monday to renew - so there will be some freed after Monday.

I had that problem when buying for the Dunfermline game, so I'm over in the West instead.

Or should that be back? I won't be sitting that far from where I had a season ticket in the old North Stand.

I think this is a factor with the impressive sales, and one that could help break the 11K barrier.
Knowing that all our games will be 3pm Sat is an attractive selling point. Plus, in the absence of televised games this season, getting along to ER is the only way you will get to see Hibs.

Would be great to break 11k. If we don't before next week but go on a run then half ST's might take us over 11k possibly 11.5k.

Well done to all supporters who have signed up.

Some of the Amber sections are so close to being red they might as well be ... the whole of the FF lower. Main stand sections 7,6,12 and 14 and the East sections 39, 40, 41, 42 and 43 are all Amber but mostly only have a few singles left :aok: For folk still looking to get two seats or more together the end sections in the stands look like being the only choice left to them.

So you are going to PATG every week to then sit on your own? Would you not be better buying a season ticket and getting to know the other season ticket holders around you? Just a thought.

I went to the Brondby game that was 'loaded onto my card' but only it wasn't....Swiped my card at the turnstyle and it failed....Had to queue for 40 minutes at the ticket office to be given a 'ticket' went back to the turnstyle and that failed too !! Now im not taking the 'load it on to your card 'option..I don't trust the E ticketing thingy and 'il just buy tickets on the night for an other area of the ground.

Used it for Brondby and no problem. My stand was shut for the Birmingham game. Went to collect my ticket on the day of the Birmingham game (as per the option selected in my checkout basket) to be told they'd loaded it on to my card! Arf! How the **** would I know where to sit when my ST seat is out of bounds? In the end they printed me the tickets I'd paid for.
Sounds like they are all over the place. I won't be at ER until Tuesday night, so they better have it right and I don't want to hear any crap about print at home options!

Andy, if you have had consistent problems with your card I would ask for a new card, it could be a physical problem with the card, with the turnstyle unable to read your card for some reason.

When games are added to a card, they aren't actually added to the card as such, your card will have thousands of games on it. It is the turnstyle that is updated to let your card in.

I think with the right marketing and if we're looking good for the league and potentially going to make a cup final again then half season tickets could prove popular! Incredible really, given that 3 years at this level is an all time low for the club (not that anything else of note happened last year :wink: )
