Stadium Expansion (Confirmed)

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

'Johnny Come Lately' is such a wank term.

It's the sort of thing one of these....errr......"new" breed of supporters would say.

Fuck off you JCL!!!






Morning mate...:-)

On a serious note.

I'm sure somebody would take your season ticket off your hands now. (anyone interested?)

The reason being, unfortunately they can't get a season ticket. SOLD OUT!(38,000)

It's all about supply and demand.

People will pay over the odds for something they can't get. If they can get it they will pay what they can afford, or a little more. The afford and little more bit are the new season ticket prices.

Just put your name down for a relocation.

Good luck. :-)

My mum has never had a season card due to illness..She is a blue member and has been waiting for this.Call her a Johnny Come lately or whatever you want.Her cash will be on the table on Wednesday morning at 1000am.

It's all about choices.I choose not to drink,I choose not to smoke.I have a young family and I wouldn't see them go without.
How do I pay for my season cards each year-I work fucking hard,and put all my birthday presents,xmas gifts twds my ticket and save my 20p's,50p's and £1 coins in a bottle!!!
People want everything for nothing.
I agree that the club should look at the cost of everyones ticket,however for people to be moaning about what the Sheikh is doing is simply pathetic!!

Is it one of those big whisky bottles, everyone used to use them for saving coins back in the day.

I've not had a go at them. I want them to come but I don't see why they should have prioity over existing season ticket holders when I know loads who struggle every year to afford a season ticket including myself.

So when 2015 comes round and I can no longer afford it as my seat will have gone up again, it's fair that someone who hasn't been for years is sat in a £299 seat that I could have afforded?

If 2015 comes and you can't afford your current seat then just move to one of the cheaper ones that you can afford!!

Not if they have all been taken up by new/old supporters I won't.
Which was my point really.

"new breed of supporter" is such a wank term
it's the sort of thing of these Johny Come Latelt's would say.

I've just looked through the FAQs on the OS, existing season ticket holders will get first priority on the new seats before anyone on the waiting list. The waiting list is for season tickets anywhere in the ground not just the expanded stands.

Well there we go city agree with me and I need to learn to read the FAQ section before questioning them on here.

It is good that existing supporters get the option for cheaper seats, those that have not been able to get season tickets previously have a bit more time to get organised financially in order to obtain one. And when you have one you start to plan and make sacrifices to keep it. Those people then become eligible if the chance arises, to obtain a cheaper ticket and so on. It can only be a good thing. We just need to hope that there are a significant amount of cheaper tickets. It also seems a bit silly that the third tier is split so that you could be sat a row in front of someone paying a couple of hundred quid less than you...

All this yappity yap about ticket prices is why I suspect that the Club will expand both ends at the same time. I know Bluemoon isn't a full representation of the true thinking of all the City supporters out there, but it might be a useful exercise if somebody started a new thread asking people if they would definitely move once the £299 tickets become available. My own view for what its worth is I don't think the demand is there for existing season ticket holders to move. People are creatures of habit and I suspect the vast majority will choose to stay where they are, as I will. Its the best part of two years away and that's a lot of time for new fans to register their interest hence my optimism about both ends being done together.

Agree- I love where I am sat and the people who I sit with in SL2.

I'm I reading the email off City right? If I want some johnny come lately to sit with me in 2015 I can pay £100 now to guarentee a £299 season ticket.

Shouldn't existing season ticket holders be getting first choice on the cheap seats?

johnny come lately?hope who ever it is dosnt realise what a arrogant t**t,he is sat next to

I like where I stand been there since the stadium opened, but I have been really struggling to come up with the money a £299 season ticket is going to stop me becoming a part time supporter. I'm sure there are a lot of people in the same boat and I know a few who have already given up there's due to the cost.

Calling me an arrogant twat is a bit uncalled for.

I had no idea Johnny Come Lately was such an offensive term I just thought it was a light hearted term for people arrving late on the scene,

"New Breed of Fan" is the new "Johnny Come Lately". Much less offensive to the ....errr.....new breed of fan.

The £299 seats will be some of the poorest seats for viewing so I can't see all that many existing s/t holders applying. I will be paying my deposit though, because it is in my price range and I don't mind sitting up there. Maybe if there is enough of an uptake for this offer, other areas of the ground will have their prices reduced, or is that just wishful thinking!

Something I can confirm: Wishful Thinking

I'll that remember in future. Although still don't see what is offensive.

We seem to have acquired extra big screens as per the OS pics. I reckon they should place the screens on the roof of each end therefore enabling the corners to be filled in and upping the capacity at little extra cost.

eg. My piss-poor mock up...

I doubt very much that they could put a screen there, as it would be too heavy for the existing (and new) structure, as I think the front of the roof is only cables.
