Im not sure that’s actually true.

I was on the Newcastle United forum and their fans clearly indicated that they are the best

Nope, Man City.

Even in a season where they win the treble their amazing fans don't desert them. (y)
 
So, after 24 hour flight delays, and aeroplanes that apparently are too heavy to take off, I eventually got back from holiday last night, so have been able to do a dot count earlier today ( my hotel wi-fi wouldn't let me on the ticket site and for some reason thought I was a bot! ).

I last did a count on the 12 June and we were at almost exactly 5,600. I now have us at exactly 5,700. This, of course, includes all 2022/2023 season tickets assumed as sold, and will remain the case until they are no longer held on the 30 June. It means steady, but not spectacular sales of NEW tickets over the last 12 days of just over 100. It's interesting that the club haven't announced any more sales thresholds, as I think we must be close to, or over, the 5,000 total sales mark by now.

The real count will begin after the 30 June, and it will be very interesting to see how many people haven't renewed? I suspect it won't be as many as first feared, and we show a net gain on last season, at that point, and can then build towards 6,000 with a month until the new season begins.

Most people upon returning from a trip abroad go straight for a 'proper' cup of tea which they had been missing, not go to scratch their itch for counting dots 🤣 Thanks for the update, it really is appreciated.

Have the club even announced we surpassed 4500?
 
Our fans are definitely the best, as vouched by @OUSP Secretary 'up thread' .

The Play It Forward fundraiser now stands at £2,222 with hopefully more to come.

Must admit I'm a bit of a numbers geek. 2222 has a satisfying symmetry to it. All its factors are palindromic (11, 22, 101, 202, 1111).

But although it's an interesting number, OxVox and OUSP would like to see it go higher, and more cash raised for tickets for fans in difficult circumstances.

Meanwhile, my theory as to why 4500 STs hasn't been announced is that it's a fundamentally dull number. It's a number entirely without pzazz. It's a beige number. It's a hotel lift music kind of number. A 'why bother' kind of number. 5000 on the other hand has a real identity. It's a true landmark. A worth writing home about kind of number.

(Cue the club announcing 4500 on Monday!)
 
For those that have not renewed it would be interesting to have an analysis of the reasons, of which there could be many:-
Moved away from the area
Gone to university (if so this might mean also parent stops going)
Got baby/change in family circumstances
Change in work commitments
Can't afford, money getting a bit tight
Died
Getting too old
Lost interest following poor season
Friends stopped going
Other social activities, new boy/girl friend who has other interests

What is a normal, average - 10% ?
