Viking Warrior Posted 10 July, 2009 Share Posted 10 July, 2009 I have got mine. I will not get to many games , but I have one. So I hope all those that said they were going to but a season ticket keep to their promise. Spoke directly to David Luker, very helpful and was very suprised I travel from a far. By the way we have Leibherr cranes up here, Heddle have just taken ownership of a brand new one. its light blue but all the important parts like the crane etc were in red and white. made me smile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchi Posted 10 July, 2009 Share Posted 10 July, 2009 Seems like a good deal for old and new ST holders and will encourage more kids, which will be good for the future, Chapel End will become horribly shrill, but better than deathly silence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint_mears Posted 10 July, 2009 Share Posted 10 July, 2009 I have to say i am very disappointed with the cost of match day tickets.

31cc Posted 10 July, 2009 Share Posted 10 July, 2009 Renewed mine on the phone today about 4pm, got through after about 6 rings. The seat next to mine was available so got a freebie ST for our elder daughter too! Danke schoen(?) to the new regime, investing now to build a fanbase for the future - smart move.

Kenilworthy Posted 10 July, 2009 Share Posted 10 July, 2009 Took six calls as the line kept dropping just when I was about to complete. But eventually renewed for me and my two boys for a total of £288. That's over £200 less than last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonManager Posted 10 July, 2009 Share Posted 10 July, 2009 Had to go to Didcot today, trying to get a ST on the way. Pulled over on the A303 at 0900 to powder my nose - no bloody signal on the top of Salisbury Plain!! Tried half an hour later in a layby by a phone mast - good signal but just music. I tried again at 1000 in another layby -still music. Stopped in Hungerford at 1030 for coffee and tried phoning again before getting out of the van - got through at last after 15min wait not daring to move as only 1 bar up on reception. Suddenly realised I hadn't yet bought a parking ticket and a warden approaching stage right. Did the ST deal without losing the connection and the traffic warden - would you believe it - stood looking through the windscreen at me with serious expression. Got off the phone and got out of the van feeling great that I had got my ST but expecting another type of ticket to be slapped on me - turns out he could hear my conversation through the open window and is a Saints fan!! The punchline should be that he still gave me a bloody parking ticket -but he didn't! I've had some great times in my 41 years as a Saints fan, and thought I was going to lose my Club, but this is the best since '76! Sorry to dribble on but I've been on Cloud 9 since the takeover and now I'm on cloud 10 :smt007:smt039:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint137 Posted 11 July, 2009 Share Posted 11 July, 2009 Got mine at lunchtime yesterday. Back on the Northam after two years absence after going up there for the last few games of last season and loving it all over again. Back row of 42, plenty of standing and drumming for me then Jesus Christ though some people like to moan though - moaning about the Chapel and the length of the queue and the prices and whether or not they'd get a free Ajax ticket. FFS people yesterday was the day we could have died as a club, instead it was the start of a new book let alone a new chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delmary Posted 11 July, 2009 Share Posted 11 July, 2009 (edited) can u still pay with 6 monthly direct debits? want to get a season ticket but just a little skint at the mo!20% deposit up front then followed by 4 equal monthly installments via your debit or credit card. You can do this via the 0800 number. I was shocked at how cheap the tickets are. If you buy an adult and under 12 season tickets together (wings), you only pay £32 for the kids one. A bargin!

sotonian Posted 11 July, 2009 Share Posted 11 July, 2009 they should of done the new season tickets at the same price as renewed tickets, a new start and all that, by going over the £300 mark that many i spoke to set at their limit, we need to bring back fans who have got out of the habit of going, i think that extra £42 will knock quite a few off the numbers, speaking to an ex season ticket holder yesterday, who had a ticket up to 2 years ago, gave up due to the crap football, lowe etc, he made a good point, he would of been happy to buy a season ticket again with a new start, but set his limit at £300, now he is going to renew his golf membership, looking at the matchday prices he will only go to about 3 or 4 games now, so in stead of getting £300 out of him saints will get £88, also will miss out on the drink/food sales, the ground wont be full, i think saints have missed out here on a few thousand fans i am renewing as i would of done whatever the price, but i think they have got this wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
