What's the chances of any season tickets being on sale after current holders have had the chance to renew? Or is it a season in the Byron?

We were then offered seats in the row in front of our normal row, but there was a two seat gap between our offered seats because of social distancing.

So overall only seem to be selling one in six of total seats.

this would suggest a capacity in the region of 1500

i was going to post something similar but the two of you have beaten me to it.
Fetched my ticket today and had to change blocks as there was nothing left where my usual seat is in WSL block C apart from right down at pitchside, possibly due to people from block D sidestepping.
WSL is the same with every second row out of action and a two seat gap between allocated seats.
Take out the 2 unused blocks behind the dugouts and you are probably looking at about 1500 seats available. With 2400 sold last year, unless there are a fair number not bothering this season then some could end up disappointed if they leave it too long. Assuming family groups are allowed to sit together this may add another couple of hundred on to the total capacity but I certainly can't see there being anything left for anyone who wasn't an existing ST holder.

They could’ve used the two blocks behind the dugouts by moving the dugouts back over to the bishop street side.

Going on what others have said in this thread, the reason those blocks aren't available is because they are being used for subs, staff, players families, etc. so moving the dugouts wouldn't change anything.

People whining about not getting their normal seat really need to give their heads a shake.

2 of the grumpy old men went down today to renew for all 3 of us in the QLE. Every other row is empty, some rows are allocated for singletons, some for duos and some for trios. So we have moved 2 rows back so we can sit and moan together.. Also got refunds on unused away tickets and hospitality for the Crewe game. The staff are very patient and friendly even to those people who don't seem to understand that these decisions have not been made by the staff

Interesting approach from Lincoln City.

Season ticket holders had the option of converting the discount on their season tickets into shares in the name of the Supporters Trust or their own name and 80% have done so.

Got my ticket yesterday
Near to where I normally sit and sat next to bro in law
Fortunate enough to waiver last seasons lost games and Found the staff very helpful in the office. Just looking forward to getting back to the One call, no matter what the inconvenience, we just have to be patient and understanding,

It will be interesting to see what kind of atmosphere there will be. I imagine very little, similar to last season.

Agree. It’s shameless virtue signalling.

Pretty annoyed. Emailed Monday, no reply so far and saw the IGU had sold out today so decided to ring as it was IGU I asked to renew in. Been on phone for an hour waiting, it cuts off and it's now engaged.

Why are you hoping? It would be great if every team chose to take the knee to start the season. A great choice. Not sure why you are hoping they won't. And to associate it with being shameless just astounds me! Black lives matter.

I tried to ring this morning and was in hold for about an hour. It drops out every ten - fifteen minutes.

At about half 10 I managed to get away from work for a bit, drove to the ground and literally walked up to the window without a queue. Service at the ground was great.

Very frustrating for those who can't get to the ground though

We had to move from the west stand upper to the west stand lower, but we're reassured that we would get our usual seats back when normal service can be resumed.
