Bronze Members

[STREAKS20]

have any bronze members heard anything from the club about season tickets?
i was 370 on the waiting list but now they have given me my loyalty points for renewing my membership? does that mean i have missed out? Eek

Surely 369 people will have failed to renew! Saying that I didn't move 1 place last summer which all seems a bit dodge

 

[STREAKS20]

i got offered one last season but wasnt able to take it up at the time

I doubt it. I know people who have considered leaving and instead either transfering their ticket via the club to a friend or buying the ticket themselves and selling to mates to ensure they have the ST in future seasons.

On a side note, the season I got my Season Ticket and was a bronze member, I had paid, been given my bronze membership and not offered the ST until a few weeks before the start of the season. Don't lose hope yet but I think it's a long shot still personally.

the bit highlighted above is a bit unfair though

I think the general feeling from the club is that they don't care as long as they get their money. The fact that they will have bronze members paying more a season to stay on the waiting list probably helps too.

Do you keep your place in the queue? I'm around 250th iirc but disposable income right now, isn't what it was when I was first on the list.

Phone the club if they offer you a ticket and ask the question.

I believe you can reject a ST on the first occasion, if you get offered again next season though you will go to the back of the waiting list.

My waiting list position has disappeared from my account.

This.

We took advice before turning down a half season ticket a couple of seasons ago and were told this was the case.

We remain at late six hundreds so guess it'll be next season before we are reconsidered, though when I phoned to renew Bronze Membership and confirm it would be taken by direct debit, the guy suggested I might be offered one this close season so there's hope yet...

Same here, I'm guessing they have removed it whilst they fiddle with the waiting list positions.

Just out of interest when did you both join the ST waiting list?

i did when they first started the bronze teir structure

i did when they first started the bronze teir structure

When was that?

After 2 years as a bronze member I'm still in the twenty thousands.

 

[PT]

I've been Bronze for about five years - maybe more - still have an 05/06 card - and am 697 I think.

 

[Maske2g]

I would be very suprised if 5-10% of people relinquished their tickets?

I managed to buy one off someone for a year.

If I remember rightly that was at the start of the 2007 season, I joined bronze the year after in 2008 and was 14,000 and something on the list a few days ago, not sure how far I'll move up the list when the site gets updated, but probably in for a few years of waiting yet.

I'm pretty sure there was no bronze membership back then, I don't think there was even a waiting list in 05/06, I stand to be corrected, but I think the waiting list only came in in 06/07 and Bronze started in 07/08, I joined start of 08/09 because I thought this might actually be more than a temporary blip.

Edit: Just found this in the news archive, looks like 05/06 season tickets were on general sale right up to middle of August 05/06 and the waiting list started then as a priority list for buying season tickets the next year: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/articles/article-old-268358.html

There was still just a straight application in 06/07, no waiting list: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/articles/seasonticketprices170406.html

It looks like the Bronze membership with the waiting list started at the end of the 06/07 season in preparation for the 07/08 season: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/articles/welcometoonehotspur4893.html
