I have just asked at the ticket office for two Arsenal tickets for some relatives coming over from Canada,no problem the ticket office guy said there are about 3 thousand left.If we cannot sell out against the Arse on the first home game,then was putting the extra seats in a waste of money.

The amount of fans left to applaud last seasons efforts in our last home game should have been an indication to the club that there is something not right, many areas have still not been addressed in the closed season, if we start slowly as usual under Hughes things could turn toxic inside the ground. |

It is on TV with a later than normal kick off time. Some fans are away on holiday. There is still a week to go. All reasons why the tickets will sell a bit more slowly. Give it time.

No excuses but,
Peak holiday season.
On TV
Saturday evening Ko
Poor and late marketing of new corner seats.
Time yet. From previous years experience many may assume that thre are no seats available.
I am hoping for a cracking good old fashioned Stoke, we hate Arsenal, atmosphere.

Nor will the apathy generated by the management team. The apathy is being driven by the owners and the CEO not the Manager. |

I know of all the excuses in place,but it does not seem to effect other clubs,Watford on telly sold out,Arse on Friday night sold out,Manure sold out,Newcasle sold out.Hopfully after today's result we will sell out,if we don't we will have the main media saying we are a small club and the club won't invest more due to the lack of support,that tosses on talk sport would have a field day.See you all at Goodison.

This "we haven't marketed the new Corner well enough" is tosh, as well. If you'd got even a passing interest in Stoke, you would have had to have been a cretin, living under a rock, blindfolded, not to know that there were additional seats being opened up by means of the new Corner. |

Because Stoke fans buy tickets last minute. The August bank holiday weekend fixture has always been poorly attended too as people are on holiday. Same every year |

Deep down the club have always been doubtful that the demand for the extra seats is really there haven't they?
We might have to resort to dishing out some freebies in order to save face on this occasion

There are tickets left because most people would rather spend their match day sat at home moaning on the oatcake!
It's a fact!

It hasn't been marketed though has it? Like the first I saw that we were selling tickets cheap for the corner was someone on here saying we were. Then a tweet from the Staffs FA. I've seen nothing from Stoke about it? |

I telephoned the ticket office a couple of weeks ago as myself and mate are 5 ( season ticket )seats apart and asked if we could move and get two together ?
I was told that it was impossible and that were only a few poor low down seats available and just the odd single ones left
I would therefore assume that there are no season tickets being offered or sold in the new stand.?

I'm a complete nerd and spend all my free time on the internet, and I haven't heard one single damn thing about it from the club.
If I wasn't a ST holder and didn't live my life on here, I'm genuinely not convinced that I would know about the corner.
My dad's got a very, very passing interest in Stoke and he didn't know about it until I told him a couple of weeks ago, so it's not beyond the realms of plausibility to imagine that (especially older) floating fans could have got by without hearing about it. Even if they have, they could have forgotten about it.
It should have been drummed into everyone's heads, new corner, new corner, new corner on local radio, Sentinel, billboards, flyers, news.
I remember getting an automated phone call from "Peter Crouch" once trying to flog me something or other, they could have done that too?

ERR nope - we were talking hard core versus casual fans we got 14-5000 hardcore and the rest are more casuals and some part timers and some pay on the day wallahs suggest you go back and READ what I actually fucking said usually 20,-22,000 season tickets sold plus the away allocation meaning that we didnt have enough free tickets to sell on matchdays to casuals and family groups and we therefore, had to expand. in struggling to find out whats hard to understand about this ? we can get regular 30K gates against the bigger clubs no problem why even try - getting picky when - there is no fucking issue ? half a dozen matches this season at least - we will sell out - so whats the problem ? |
