I'm with you on that Ricc, it was obvious at the end of last season the majority were not happy with Pulis, and Coates must have realised this, and that there would be no point filling the corners in, as fans were starting to walk away. A lot of us have come round to MH since his appointment, but it will take him being a success to guarantee sell out games again.
The season tickets will probably take off if we play some decent footie and players may be more interested if that happens but if we get some stars they will have to youngsters because the money in football is ridiculous.
Thannks guys I thought they we're down but I renewed as soon as Pulis left, so did my 3 mates who didn't renew last season. Maybe if we get a half decent start/play some footie the Xmas sales of tickets will at least equal those of past seasons. Jowler I would prefer that MH takes a gamble on a rising League player, they ARE out there. Jordan Rhodes etc it's worth a punt IMO.
Don't know for sure, I know someone who's daughter works in the club shop, apparently she's heard they're still going steadily, don't know how many or how it compares to last season though.
