There's 5500 seats in the JHS, 2500 season ticket holders.
There are 250 folk with Season Tickets using the NS, of which i'd say less than 100 are JHS ST holders.
And you are struggling to find a "good seat".
Yip and the frustrating thing is there are loads of empty seats
-
Club needs to give more thought to season ticket sales for next year, as a non season ticket holder but regular attendee get frustrated about finding decent seats in JH stand, as many blocked as empty season ticket seats. I had put this down to the issue of free U16 tickets, but this thread had highlighted that there is a significant number of these seats where the holder is in the North Stand.
For next season the club should give the fans the right to reserve a seat if their season ticket is valid for one stand, if they opt to have the flexibility to go to either stand then they should be issued with a free seating ticket, this should be easily achieved with computerised system.

Delighted to have Chris back and will look forward even more to going along to games, but lets face it he is unproven at this level and DUFC are using us to find out whether he can cut it or not.
They know he will get a run if games here and if he proves a success, well and good for us, but he will be back playing to them for next season.
If he bombs then he will be back them to decide what to do with, maybe back to us should we end up getting relegated, although not an outcome we would wish for, one that would brighten up next season and make sense for all parties given he is proven already at that level.
If, as I suspect, he is a bit hit and miss, then he may well have a longer term future at Firhill.
It will certainly add to the interest for the rest of the season to see how this pans out.

How can we drop someone for a performance that gets him in the Sunday Mail team of the day ! Bizarre, even Fraser had a better game than Fox and think he should have saved our first goal. Cant remember Fox making a save a note and as others have stated looked dodgy on their first 2 goals and maybe even their 3rd

Done and good luck
-
Ach its all over the place now and after all my moaning just found out cant make the re-arranged game.
I'm out of this debate but will be there Saturday.
Away the Jags

Rough calculation. £300 for ST
Assume 19 home games + 1 re-arranged fixture(so far).
Means ~£15 a game. Therefore £30 for these two games against the Fermers. Only £2/£3 better off than fans who PATG.
I think any issues should be aimed at the club not Season Ticket holders, imo.
Depends how you want to spin it, non ST Holder who attends above number of games , Cost £392, ST Holder saving £4.60 per game.
-
On the ST issue, if folk want the ST holders to pay, what about those that can't make the rescheduled game, should they get £8 back?
There will be an element of bias depending on whether you are or are not a ST holder, my own view is everyone who effectively paid into the original fixture, i.e. ST holders whether there or not and all who paid at the gate should get into the re-arranged fixture on the same terms, if you cant make it then thats hard luck, same as it is for ST holder when scheduled fixturea moved for TV. Could be that current T&Cs for Season Tickets prevent this approach, anyone know ?
-
Take all the points about Season Ticket Holder pros and cons, have been one numerous seasons in the past, but think the club policy of passing on costs of rearranged games to pay at the gate home and away fans is flawed, charging more than 50% of standard admission is basically unfair
-
ST entitles the holder entry to ALL home league games.
The circumstances surrounding the abandonment were outside the club's control and they need to cover the costs of the rearranged game - if people are unhappy about forking out another 12 quid (which helps the club out) attendance is not compulsory. Jings, we're talking about the grand sum of an extra £12 here!
Yeah and its £12 that's staying in my pocket, refuse to subsidise ST holders free entry to additional games, would have no problen paying the same rate as everyone else who attended the original game, whatever that was set at
-
Adult season ticket holders don't get in for nothing - they paid up front for home league games. I'd have no problem being charged an extra few quid but on a point of principle (not necessarily money - we're talking peanuts here) I'm not sure everyone would agree.
Your ST entitled you entry to original game, my £20 did the same for me, it gets abandoned half way through, ST holder gets into re-arranged game for nothing, I need to pay £12, I really dont get it

As a season ticket holder a £5 charge wouldn't bother me - however, as has already been pointed out on this thread it would open a can of worms - it could lead to some ST holders taking the hump and not renewing so it would be a risky strategy. I'd imagine most ST miss at least one or two games (I was away for the Killie game and had no intention of ever going to the Celtic game) - if you reverse the principle would they not be due some cash back?
Not really, similar to the non ST holder who attended the St Johnstone game only being entitled inadequately discounted entry to the re-arramged game, which they may not be able to attend
-
Expecting the non ST holders to carry the costs of an additional game onto their season ticket holders entitlement is a major goodwill gaff by the club. Having endured a soaking, incurred the additional travel costs and witnessed the worst football experience of over 40 years of going to Firhill first time around, I certainly have no intention of paying more than 1.5 times the cost for 1.5 games, so will now be giving the rearranged game a pass. I will also not be bothering going along to any other games in terrible weather conditions, if this the policy the club has adopted for abandoned matches.
-
Might spark a bidding war with some English clubs hopefully.
A risk that someone offers him a better personal pre-contract deal to move at end of season, also would suggest price is now set and any improvement will go in his pocket for a January move.
-
Surprised at Celtic's interest, can only assume its for SPFL cover, although I have enjoyed watching ATS in his time with us, Champions League quality, I dont think so.

Think they also paid for new 4G Playing Surface(and more) for Largs Thistle.
Very generous gesture and as others have stated sets up for a bright future, long while since things have been this positive across the board at Firhill
-
Would expect all of the recent contract extensions will have a release amount in them, so thats what they will go for, on that basis dont we will make big money on any of our current squad.
Bit surprised Lawless and ATS havent done a deal on that basis, allowing them to make decent money now and giving them a bit of security against injury and loss of form
-
Was there in 71 and yip think this is the best team since then, dont think we should be fearing anyone this league
-
I don't think Archie made a mistake letting Stevie go but he may have made a mistake in not finding an adequate replacement. Baird is not showing anything yet and will have to improve considerably to prove his worth in the team.
On today's showing it was the wrong call to start him before Doolan.
No it wasnt, we were brilliant and won
-
Well done Jags...would have been home nearly two hours ago but some wee Paisley barsteward slashed my front tyre (£120 to replace)....don't park in Stirrat Street in future. Oh Maryhill is wonderful.....but Paisley is a $hithole..........Mr Happy with Jags but Mr Angry with Paisley scum
-
Arrangements far from perfect, but think the club had enough problems getting season tickets out for Hearts game without trying to sell tickets on behalf of St Mirren. Best to take it one crisis at a time.

I think I was at the Heralds.
You were also at the Daily Records, exact same as the Herald !

Impressive attendance for a Friday night televised game, hopefully the performance will keep most fans to come back and attract a few more along, credit to DU fans for their turnout and keeping nice and quiet, atmosphere overall was great but couldn't hear Notth Stand at City end of Jackie Husband, maybe time for a hearing test!
-
Scott Fox was brilliant should have been "Man of the match". Really impressed tonight. Looking forward to the rest of the season.
16 points clear of Hearts, 1 point ahead of Celtic
He was BT Sport MOM

Think it could be just as effective in Main Stand, but if the fans want to stay in the NS Stand then why not leave as is for at least another year. Certainly no overwhelming business case to justify it, As posted above, create time for greater dialogue and maybe have a couple of trials in the Main Stand at non OF games to see what everyone thinks of the experience and atmosphere.
