19% of ST holders 'unable' to attend one or more of the first 6 home games.
Fuck off StubHub, you're not welcome here!
And people wonder why our home support is finished. Reap what you sow,Some of the comments on the article are depressing..
Most people who profiteer from Stubhub are the type that would sell their nan for a fiver.
Thats 3760 of our 21740 ST holders then!
Ahh, I did my maths wrong then. I worked it out at 19% of WHL's capacity... D'oh!
Still a massive number though..
Demand for tickets seems to have dipped significantly as the season has gone on - particularly over Christmas, I'm not sure the first 6 games is representative of the role StubHub has played.
Every time I've looked on the OS since mid November its been possible to buy home tickets on General Sale, it seems like it only really had an impact for the two major London derbies we've played so far.
It is an absolute disgrace, that almost a fifth of our ST holders clearly have no intension of going to matches and are profiteering from it.
I would give anything for a season ticket and not to have to go through the rigmarole of trying to book tickets online (like today) when they go on sale.
Those ST holders in question should have them forcibly removed, and offered to supporters on the waiting list.

People will simply go back to renting them out to a mate, this is the clubs way of trying to make a bit of money by appealing to those fans who rent them outs greedier side.Anyone that doesn't attend 75% or more games should have their season ticket taken off of them. The waiting list is ridiculously long as it is. If you miss one game because of a fair enough reason and can't get a mate to go for you then fine. Sell it on. However that may be. But if you're missing 10 or so games a season what is the point of having a season ticket?
We need to sing this at Dnipro, and we need to sing it more persistently than we've done at previous 1882s.Fuck off StubHub, you're not welcome here!
Before kick off... Throughout half time... after every goal...We need to sing this at Dnipro, and we need to sing it more persistently than we've done at previous 1882s.
