Any chance Ken of putting a "like" button on here ?
I'm sure the above would get loads.

There is a "like" button in the next version of the board software (2.1). It's only in beta at the moment so not recommended for use just yet, but as soon as it's out with the official version I'll do the upgrade.

The closest you can get to a "Like" with the current version (2.0.9) is that you can post messages with a "Thumb Up" icon next to them by choosing a Message icon: "Thumb Up" instead of the default "Standard".

I have left it overnight to comment on yesterday, unfortunately I am still gutted. How good it was to see over 3000 there and on that note I urge as many as possible to purchase a season ticket for next season everyone at the club has worked so hard to restore the pride back into our club. We have signed up the best players for next term and with the addition of a keeper and a ball playing mid fielder plus a couple more may be in a position to win the league and go up without the lottery that is a penalty shoot out. A few weeks off and then return to another exciting season along with the marvelous prospect of a new ground being completed for us challenge in the National League. Yes we are all feeling down now but look to the near future, commit yourself to the club, buy a season ticket, for the last few days may well be forgotten as we become champions this time next year. I feel much better now.

Think Chorley or Telford did this but they started selling season tickets a few weeks ago at Conf North prices but obviously if they got up it would be a good deal. Think they had a reasonable uptake.... maybe we missed a trick there? Capitalise on the momentum we have and get 14-1500 regulars next term or do what we did in 2011/2 and end up with an average around 1,000

Joshb I think we did miss a trick. We never seem to be on the front foot as far as season tickets are concerned. They should have been on sale for the last home league game of the season to make the most of the footfall at the ground.

No doubt there will be an announcement in the next few weeks and we will be given a two week window in which to buy at a cheaper price  :o

The club did not know what league they would be so I suppose they were unable to set price .
Other years they have done a discounted offer , presume same again this year .

Excellent news. Wouldn't be surprised to see a modest increase in sales thanks to the post-Christmas form and the price freeze.

How much were season tickets last season? I couldn't afford one but ended up paying on the gate all season and only missed a handful of home games due to work, so I'm planning on getting one this year

Much is being said about getting players in but obviously things must be done within the playing budget. One way we can help the board set the budget is to show our commitment to the club by purchasing season tickets, okay I know not everyone can afford it but for those that are able please get on with it as it is great value, how fantastic it would be to have  1000 season ticket holders committed to the club next season.

Agreed Mel with your comments. If supporters are considering having a season ticket and can afford to purchase then do it. Makes sense anyway because over a season it does work out cheaper. Also in previous years there has been a scheme where you are able to pay by instalments. Obviously don;t not know if that would apply this year but no doubt all will be revealed in the very near future.
