Town have announced that there will be an extension to the deadline for cheap prices on season tickets, due to a sudden surge in interest since Roy Keane was appointed Town boss. So far around 13,000 fans have renewed their season tickets for next season, slightly down on last seasons figure but the clubs hopes with this latest incentive that number will be swelled before the new deadline of the 3rd of May. Any fans who do renew their tickets will still be able to get all the benefits that they would have had if they had renewed before the original deadline.
Town's chief executive Simon Clegg: "Roy Keane's appointment has created a huge buzz not only locally but also in Ireland, we have therefore decided to open up the Early Bird Season Ticket offer to ensure that more Town fans can join us on this journey to future success. Home support is absolutely critical to success on the pitch and I hope that new and old supporters will want to be part of this fantastic journey. Supporters can be the 12th player on the pitch and we need to recreate the atmosphere from last Sunday's win over Norwich on a week in, week out basis."
A one-off £10 supplementary fee will be charged to all adult, concession and under-20 purchasers who take up this short-term offer. There will be no additional charges for U16 and U11 season ticket purchasers. This offer will mean that adult season ticket holders renewing their seat will save an average of around £100 on standard season ticket prices.
