Somebody on the Sportsground thread said it was 3,000. I don't know how many will be sold as season tickets, but whilst they might sell out, I think it will take a long time for that to happen.

The only pain, is that it's so difficult to get someone else a ticket to stand with me, if they want to come to any decent sized game.
No interest in the marquee really. Been in there once before, and it was alright. I suppose if they were showing another match on screens in there beforehand, I would be tempted to go for a drink there, rather than a pub in Eyre Square.

I've renewed already because it wouldn't surprise me if they end up running out of season tickets for the clan side.
Bit confused by that. Are you saying if you have a ST for the greyhound side, you could renew for the Clan side?
Eh. I'm not sure actually...probably but you might have to call them up.
The point I was trying to make is that in addition to the money you save by buying a season ticket it also the only way to guarantee access to the Clan for every game.

The first season we qualified for the HC it was ridiculously cheap. I think it was €160 including free beer at every game. I never expected that to last, but since then we've gone up €70, down 14 pints while the matchday prices stay the same (apart from the rather daft surcharge).
Total cost for a ticket for every game would be 3x30+3x25+8x20 = €325, so the full price ST (€279) only saves you €46 and most people would probably miss two games over a season. So not much incentive there. I know once you add in the 10% surcharge that most people will pay, the savings go up to €78.
For anyone who has one, renewing is a no-brainer, but for those who dropped off during the last couple of seasons, there's less encouragement to come back.

Shhhhh, don't be giving them ideas.
