 I paid £159 for my senior renewal, i could have got it cheaper if i had claimed for games i didnt attend but i'd rather the club have the money, the season pass is very good value to start with.

I've heard Scawsby Steve gets well looked after because he's one of the few remaining supporters who helped carry the Main Stand from the Bennetthorpe Ground to Belle Vue in 1922.

That would have been a great solution last season!

Scratch it, lads. I've just seen the e-mail. It's £129, same as last season. Silly woman in the ticket office quoted it wrong. She must have thought there was still the 10% early bird deduction to come off, without realising it had already been knocked off.

Still cheaper than Frickley though.

I would have paid double for a seat facing the wrong way last season and the season before.

I just paid £229 for a West Stand ticket, although they were reluctant to give me a senior ticket because of my youthful looks.

It's always the same for me at ST renewal time. I get the same look of doubt that I got in pubs when I was a legit 18-year-old attempting to buy a pint, all those years ago.

You must be in the posh bit BB. I payed about £115 I think for my seat in the SW corner.

At these prices if we come good and went up next season I generally think we'll be selling over 6000 STs again and having 7k home fans as a minimum. There's people not going that will when the football is better.

I paid £259 in the West stand (299 less 40 covid discount, which runs next season too).
Cracking value.

We must be averaging over 6.000 home fans this season
Our Ave gate is 6.770
Don’t think ave away support is more than 600 even allowing for the bigger ones we have had Bradford, Mansfield, Notts C, Grimsby.

6000 on paper maybe although many have missed lots of games.
I don’t think I’ve been since 24th feb.

You might still be right, your invoice will show £129, but you may still have only paid £116.10 as that is what I have paid. it works out that if you are a/ a pensioner, b/ sit in the South Stand, c/ you get the covid season refund, d/ the VAT you would have paid. I have just renewed mine for the 67th Season in a row.

I went for an early bird ST for the first time since 2011/12. I’ve just turned 60 and £159 is superb value (hopefully!). I’ve had the 10 game ticket for a few years, but that tempts me back in. We might be playing in league 1…

No, BB. Early bird price for pensioners in the South Stand with the Covid discount is £129, and has been for the last 2 seasons.

If I remember correctly, without going into my bank statements, I paid about £217 for next season in the West stand (not £229 as I previously stated).

 I paid £199 for this season, so it's gone up about £18. I'm in the South West corner, about level with the goal line. That used to be category B previously, but is category A now!

Wow , 67th season, surely cannot be many supporters with more than that. Amazing, well done!

Think you should be getting yours for free for that sort of service and a seat with your name on it

By God, Deebee, you're right. The girl in the ticket office told me today to ignore the e-mail, and that my bank statement will show £116.10, as you said.

Wow. £116.10 to either watch us in League 1 next season, or League 2 Champions.
