Yes, it is ridiculous, especially when they claim: "Starsport have teamed up with Express Trainers to bring you the best possible data on which clubs have attracted the most fans to commit to the cause ahead of the new season. Please note that in most cases the figures are estimates based on thorough research.

 

But, I'm sure fans of other clubs, particularly Pompey, will believe it and quote it endlessly.

 

A quick vist to our official ticket site would have shown them over 20,000 had already been sold 3 weeks ago. I have noticed though that since the departures of Koeman, Wanyama and Pelle, season ticket sales seem to have dried up completely.

That must be it. Either that or since they've been on sale for ages and over 20,000 have already been sold most people who want one have already got it.

That sounds likely. Don't we usually sell all of the STs on offer ?

Isn't there a rule that a certain percentage of tickets must be available outside season tickets? Somewhere from 5-10%

Don't think there's a rule as such anymore (similarly, there used to be a rule that kits had to be for a two-year period), but it's a general policy that most clubs stick to because it's the single-match-going fan who probably provides the highest "per game" spend - their ticket will be more expensive than a season ticket holder's, and they're more likely to spend a fortune buying stuff in the megastore.
