Unless I have missed it no banner headlines from the club that season tickets have sold out , perhaps they can't admit that they were a bit overpriced. Will need a successful season 18/19 to ensure that renewals for the season 19/20 are at the normal rate or they may struggle to find buyers from the current waiting list which seems to be a phantom waiting list.

There are under 10% premium left. Last time I heard there were just 100 1882 tickets. It’s a few hundred tickets. I’d imagine the club are chuffed with how sales are gone. And if the next few seasons are anything like the bounce from italia 90 ticket sales will be go mental. And that’s without the very real possibility our club could have half the winning World Cup team.

True what you say but they wanted to bring season ticket holder list up to a 42000 limit and by the sounds of things people around 50000 on the list were getting offered ST's. Spurs had at least 4000 on offer to those on the waiting list so an awful lot of fans have turned down the offer and said at those prices it's just too high.

or they just don't want a season ticket but want the benefits of being a bronze member. the dearest priced tickets would always been the last to sell out even if the dearest was only 1k, there are still a lot of people that don't have a grand sitting around, or can even get credit for a grand (I know 2 that couldn't get credit for a season ticket at Wembley, they are heavy gamblers)

Unless we have have fantastic season reckon ST prices will be frozen for season 19/20 , be hard to justify a price increase with the low take up from the waiting list. Will have to see how they price single match tickets.

If the club proceed with face recognition in the near future, or a version of it, there will be a massive fall in uptake imo. I have 2 ST’s for myself and my 2 sons who share. I go to every match but they are unable to make every one. I need to reserve the right to take along who I want - friend or family. If I buy 2 tickets for the theatre it’s up to me who I take after all.

Its not just the prices, its the hassle if like me you have a few family members who haven't got a ST, but you want to go to games with them. I have two grandaughters who are 7 and 8 and love going to games and a son who has mild aspergers.
There is no way I can take them to a game and sit with them if I had ST without a huge amount of hassle. So I passed on my chance for a ST, because of the ticketing system not the price and many more will have for the same reason
I'll have to take my chances as a member and hope I get the occassional invite ?

yep, kind of thinking not getting my 2 year old one his now was a mistake and I should have just tried to resell it every game.

As said as long as we have a half decent season don’t underestimate this World Cup bounce coupled with new stadium and Kane/dele factor they will be queuing halfway down the high street this season. Italia 90 totally changed the face of football in this country and we didn’t even win it. I can’t even begin to imagine what would happen if we won it. And if there’s one team an undecided kid is gonna follow after this world cup it’s spurs. Then nagging their parents for a kit and to take them to a game. This World Cup could breed a whole new wave of spurs fans.

I agree. The face recognition possibility will really screw lots of people over. Id stay the majority of season ticket holders actually would be affected at one stage in a season or another,

Are they going to have face recognition? I have had two season tickets in my name in the past- obviously i wasn't using them both...i sit with family and friends, if someone can't come, one of brings someone else eg my wife who supports Spurs but is happy going to a few games a season. If that is banned, the seats will simply be empty- couldn't be arsed to resell them.

Had 2 for 20 years now and a single one for close to 30. Never have I not found someone to go with me. But at 2 years old I’d get him/her on the junior list. The hassle, and always has been, is sitting with your mates. You do get split up as everyone’s requirements change.

Rumour that’s all. Think there would be a revolt!

I think they have gone as high as they could and will see what we bring in at the end of the season. if we have a very good season and at least match the qualifying for CL, they will then see what success everything else was overall, and at worst will freeze the prices. if we have a shit season and only go on to get EL then they will be in a tricky situation, and will have to consider dropping the prices, even though I really don't know what prices people feel it should of been. they froze them plenty of times at the old WHL, they have kind of froze the West stand, but has meant because the East has the same experience have had to hype them. The north and south have both seen increases not sure of the %, but had to be reasonably close to the East and West because they also have superb facilities now.

the 1 thing they are hoping for is that what they have provided means a profit, because that profit will help provide whats in the transfer kitty next season

perhaps they are doing the face recognition for 3 reasons, 1, they know who sat in that seat if anything gets damaged, or 2 if someone does own a junior or senior ticket, and don't pay the extra for someone else using it, that should of at least paid the price for the day. Not being funny but if 1000 people bought junior tickets and a junior never used it, that member has robbed a member that would of taken their kid to a match, plus the club loses money

or 4. they want everyone to transfer their seat to someone in their 'network' who has to pay £50 per season for the privilege.

I'd love to see it bought in at West Ham, how many knuckle dragging 50 year olds getting in as 7 year old girls!!

Can't see face recognition being used , to have face recognition means Spurs will need a photo of you like the passport office require then it needs digitising or whatever. How is this going to work when Spurs are now going for ticket share starting this season where ST's can pass their ticket on to a friend or family member doesn't say at the moment that they even need to be a registered member , so for face recognition to work they will need photos of everyone you know !!

well if that's the case and they do bring it in, it will be for reasons of adults using kids or seniors tickets and not paying the extra. or id if damage is caused in that seat
