Cagey Posted May 2 Report Posted May 2 There is usually segregation in the North at the section bordering the East to separate and avoid "the bit of banter with away fans" Quote

But to have a standing area looking at wee bairns (bless them), maybe learn some pyro tricks 😄🚬 need a standing area at end of East next to Ormond. I doubt FCU will be that colourful with kids watching Tellytubies or K-POP. They'll go to the other end of the East Stand. Ive no idea what youre on about here. The kids aren't right beside the FCU, the kids will grow up and want to be part of that so the FCU will expand, and for most games there was no away support in the North anyway so theres no huge difference between that and whats coming.

Cagey Posted May 4 Report Posted May 4 Are Saints being a bit optimistic in having tickets on sale tomorrow with new tickets provider, new pricing structure and price list still to be issued. Quote

Havana Saint Posted May 4 Report Posted May 4 Great incentives by the sounds of it. Very forward thinking. Let's fill the place 💪🏻💙 MySpazz 1 Quote
Phil D Posted May 4 Report Posted May 4 The hospitality is very good, and can see there is a demand for it and hopefully more - a great treat and an excellent way to watch a match Quote
garydavidson Posted May 4 Author Report Posted May 4 The discontent has already begun in the comments sections on social media. Few good things people have rightly pointed out as to current seats and renewals and how the pricing affects their existing seat. Interesting plans from the club but currently scant in detail which is a bit disappointing to see. Hopefully it doesn't get worse by tomorrow 😅 https://www.facebook.com/stjohnstonefootballclub/posts/pfbid02Szrs2Gmd5EMKvQSK8uYZUpx6TfBPsvVT9RMGeH9Vp6v98gHSHDT1dJ1yE5LoK552l?locale=en_GB Quote
Kat71 Posted May 4 Report Posted May 4 Hope the management are going to provide a premium team on the park to match their new premium pricing structure. sane_tee 1 Quote
Cagey Posted May 4 Report Posted May 4 Am I reading this right Saints fans in Main stand and East. Away fans in Ormond , then there is the family stand. With all the will in the world and if still play exciting football in the premiership we are not going to fill the Main and East. Are we going to forfeit the money from Aberdeen , Hearts , Hibs and Dundee clubs not to mention what is going to happen with OF. MySpazz 1 Quote

I'd replace the person doing the duty with someone with some acting or performing experience. https://www.perthstjohnstonefc.co.uk/news/article/family-stand-returns-to-mcdiarmid-park/ Edited May 4 by MySpazz Quote

The categories of games will come out tomorrow I imagine. Quote
Mizfit Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 I suspect it’s going to be a 10%, increase which would put prices from £355 to £390.50, let’s say £400.00 maximum. I seen Morecambe are charging £490 per month for regional football in England. And I think Braintree were charging £450 for the same! Arguably, we’ve been underpaying for some years, and the squad on the pitch reflected it, especially with the Browns being less than willing to put their hands in their pockets. You may see a price freeze or a lesser increase for the ends. I agree for people who’ve held a ticket there for years it’s a frustrating decision, but if they put a price freeze or gradual increase on all that’s going to happen is any future price increase is going to be even worse. Hearts have been named as a club who does this, I’m pretty sure Hibs, the old firm Aberdeen and United do also. Hospitality lounges have been at capacity all season and sold out back in December, and it won’t surprise me if they’ve people on reserve for games this season coming. Those extra booths make sense there. Dunfermline had those booths at east end and people sat there the whole time. Even the casual hospitality experience will be attractive to people who don’t want to go suited and booted. Quote

I think the reason hospitality was so popular this season was influenced by decent price, winning games, scoring goals and no toxic visitors. Lots of Saturday 3pm kick off too. Be interesting to see if it is as popular next season. Quote
mike_gain Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 4 minutes ago, That Bar Toilet Attendant said: Lots of Saturday 3pm kick off too Aye this will be a big factor. Certainly for me, I miss most Sunday games as my 3 kids play youth football and I coach one of their teams. Friday and Saturday matches have been great. Only missed around 3 home games all season.

sjfc99 Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 https://www.perthstjohnstonefc.co.uk/news/article/2026-27-season-tickets-on-sale-now/ As expected, Old Firm have 3 stands Quote
RandomGuy Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Awful decision, yet again. Fans once again ignored and shafted by an owner who values a bank balance over them. Well done with all the talk and chat about growing the home support but this just turns all of that in my mind into words designed to get people spending money rather than anything genuine. A pathetic, cowardly, move thats sadly no surprise. I expect people who buy the dear seats in the East will be getting a discount if theyre forced into cheaper seats so the group of fans who smash up stadiums amd abuse our members of staff can have a good day out?

glenrothes saintee Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 For various reasons I don’t make every home game, I’ve renewed my ST and I’m happy with the price but pissed off about the OF getting 3 stands. Doing that WONT encourage more fans to buy Season tickets. Mr Webb is deluded if he thinks by doing this he will encourage 5/10% more Saints fans turning every season. Quote

Doing that WONT encourage more fans to buy Season tickets. Mr Webb is deluded if he thinks by doing this he will encourage 5/10% more Saints fans turning every season. They've literally capped the amount of season tickets they can sell. GB stand holds about 3000 if you include hospitality doesnt it? So they either refuse to sell more than that or turn home fans away from home games so away fans can get in. The stupidest decision the club has made in about a decade. Quote
sixties saintee Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 What happened about a option wae nae auld firm games.??. Quote

garydavidson Posted May 5 Author Report Posted May 5 It seems that beating Celtic when they had three stands is the worst thing the team have ever done 😑 I can't believe they have taken the decision to move season ticket holders out of the east stand, especially considering the fans paid for half of the safe standing. Absolutely shooting themselves in the foot. I thought they knew their history of the club and the awful decisions made in the past but clearly not. One club, one community unless its for the old firm £. Unreal. Quote

Still no clarification on what happens to the spare 1000+ season ticket holders if we sell 4000 though Quote
The Kinross Saint Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Awful decision. I was ready to renew today but I don’t want to buy a seat that the old firm will occupy. Quote
HOODLUM65 Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Date of birth. What format do they want when renewing season tickets. Tried a few variations without success. Quote
sane_tee Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 2 minutes ago, RandomGuy said: They do, they apparently get offered GB stand seats. Aye, but they have to pay extra for that. IMHO, if it doesn't cover every game, it's not a season ticket Quote
