For those of you who are not aware, you can buy two memberships on the same account, so long as you link one of them to your families linked account. You don't need to log in twice with each account. My dads account is linked and I just bough a membership for me and him! £35 each.
please log in to view this image In 2007 the club, which was led by Messrs Hall and Shepard at the time, announced plans for a new £300 million development of the stadium and surrounding areas. A major conference centre, hotels and luxury apartments would be built and the Gallowgate End would be extended, taking the capacity to 60,000 and looking something like the picture above. The plans were scrapped as the new owner, a certain Mike Ashley, didn't see them as a priority.
So 30k original ST holders + 1k new ST holders. 31 ST's + 3k for away fans. 52k - 34k = 18k or so tickets available on match day. If you log on on the day of sale, members shouldn't have much issue getting tickets really, if you factor in the amount of people who aren't tech savvy and will forget. I predict it to be the same as the end of last season.
I don't even think there'll be more than 5-10k members. Think of the amount of people who will be logged into 2+ accounts just to purchase on one of the accounts. If you're a member, you'll get to go to games, simple as.
Got the Membership so at least a chance of getting a ticket this season, I doubt there will be many get to general sale.
Gen sale will only be the upper tiers basically. I like the plat club and have the money, and there's usually a decent amount of seats because they often go last due to the price.
