I’m sure you will agree that lockdown has taught us one thing - football is not a TV show. It’s about Saturday’s spent with friends and family, that escape from the daily grind of the 9 to 5 of the working week.
It’s those sounds and smells as you arrive at the ground, that click of the turnstile. It’s that same seat or the spot on the Bank. It’s that person you’ve sat near for years, and still don’t know their name.
It’s the highs, the lows, the wins, the defeats. It’s celebrating two-yard tap ins like they are 30-yard screamers and watching ‘Ones of our Own’ show how much it means to them to play in red and white.
But most importantly, it’s supporting your team, showing your passion, and sharing the #OneGrecianGoal.
The last twelve months have been hard on everyone, with no supporters coming through the SJP turnstiles, however, the club and Trust are hugely grateful for the generous support you have shown during this period. For this reason, a sympathetic approach has been taken when looking at pricing for Season Tickets. The Gate price increase announced ahead of the 2019-20 season, prior to lockdown, will remain unchanged with our season ticket prices remaining excellent value in comparison.
Being a supporter owned Club with no benefactor means that income received from ticketing makes the greatest contribution to our finances meaning that your support directly impacts the success of your club.
The club is striving to make improvements to the supporter matchday experience at St James Park, and has ambitions to reach sustainable crowds of 6000 in the near future, which would provide enough income to support a playing budget enabling us to achieve our ambition of becoming a sustainable League One club.
