I'll stand by my post quoting 7,500 season tickets (and that's all GS told me when I asked, there was no break down into specifics) but this was after the forum just in chat with maybe one or two in earshot. His aspiration for 10,000 is somewhere in the T&A ether.

If anyone wants to ask the question at the forum on Friday, now we have an update on sales and see if their estimate (or minimum projection) has changed it might make things clearer, I would ask but I can't go this time.

Which would be worse:

1) Announcing that we will spend the full cap without any caveats regarding the number of season ticket sales;

or

2) Budgeting on the basis that we will sell 7,500 season tickets?

I still feel there would be an element of 'startup costs' budgeted in for the early signings, there wouldn't have been any, otherwise. I'm sure OK knows what the running costs of the business are too, so knew full well how much it was going to cost to set up. I'm pretty certain it will be run on a normal business footing too so ultimately it has to break even as a minimum, but that won't be decided at the time the early sales of season tickets are done.

There are other factors apart from season tickets anyway; sponsors, for a start must be a major mission before the start of the season.

Good signing - but its time that he really cemented a place in the side. Hopefully sticking to one position, rather than being a 'play-anywhere' guy, will help

Good. Addy has bucket loads of potential, but a good way to go to fulfil it. Hopefully he'll kick on this year and earn a longer deal.

I really like the idea of a back row of Whitehead (23), Bateman (19) and Addy (21). Something to build the future of the squad around.

This is true, but Whitehead needs to secure the ball more and stop dropping off tackles.

Good news.
