Disagree - the sales back in April/May/June may have been skewed by that but at the point that your seat is no longer held, there is no distortion.
I agree with this view. Distortion due to the early bird sales now no longer valid.
Have you bought a season ticket this year dOh, I recall you live quite a way away don't you?
Got mine. Last season, first time in 60 years I’ve bothered with a ST but kept it going. Decent seat in the West Stand. Couple of hours + by train and tube. Mrs dOh does the station run at the sunny Hampshire end. She enjoys getting me out of the way. Journey home a bit tedious when we lose. Looking forward to the season, but like everyone else, will be tinged with sadness not seeing JE on the touch line.

Any journey home after losing is rubbish, I can’t stand it when we lose.

Good stuff Doughy. You're the kind of young go-getter we need in the West to liven things up.

I`ve had a Gallery or Legends Lounge Season Ticket for a couple of seasons now..............We think its worth the extra for the Bar and Lounge area you get and to watch the antics of the two benches close up as they berate the poor 4th official for a decision made by the Ref 100 yards away !!!!!
I went there for the Villa u23 game for the first time.
It's a great view and the padded seats are comf and must be fun being over the benches but I didn't like the set up. You're whisked up in the elevator then through the bar and straight out into your seat. You don't actually walk on any concrete, you can't get down into the undercroft to buy a burger or whatever. It's not for me.

Must Admit, I do sing the song but if I stand up the old farts behind me say “sit down sit down “
Not worth the aggro really

I suppose we could change it so you feel more at home “stand up for me dons”?

The club are reporting that we have now sold more than 4,000 Season Tickets now and this includes “Many new Fans “
Seems the 4K mark was passed last weekend
Fantastic effort from all concerned
Maybe we will hit the 4,500 target

If this includes many new fans, logic dictates that many, many old fans haven’t renewed? Bit strange.

Didn't Barry Hearn say that every year around 500 ST holders don't renew, so you're constantly trying to replace those before you start increasing the total?
I may be wrong on that, but I'm sure someone on here reported it.

Not sure about that.
They say “ Plenty of New ST Holders” whatever that means,
Don’t agree that it means “ many many old fans haven’t renewed “
I reckon by mid August we could have 4,300

£7 postage and still not here. I wonder how much extra the club have made off of season ticket holders getting them posted

I have my Cheltenham tickets which I purchased as an individual game. Doubt Orient make much (if anything) from the postage, probably just covers costs of someone putting them into envelopes and sending them.
