'Bradford Bulls are on course to sell 10,000 tickets'
7:00am Tuesday 4th December 2012 in Bulls
By Hannah Postles, T&A Reporter
Bradford Bulls’ new owners last night revealed 4,200 fans snapped up their season tickets before a deadline for the cheapest deal ended on Saturday – but remain confident the club will hit its target of selling 10,000.
Bulls’ commercial director Simon Kenny confirmed the Super League side had sold more season tickets than the previous outfit had at this point last year, despite OK Bulls’ tickets costing more than double the price of those sold by the now-defunct Bradford Bulls Holdings Limited.
In September the club’s new owners Omar Khan and former Sports Minister Gerry Sutcliffe revealed the price structure for season tickets at the newly-rejuvenated club – announcing an ‘early bird’ offer which would mean supporters could buy a season ticket for 13 games for the price of nine, as well as an initiative that would see under-12s able to cheer on the team free of charge at home matches.
The cheapest adult early bird price for the Terrace was £180 – more than double last year’s lowest price of £85 – but the club chiefs said the new prices would bring financial stability to the club after its financial crisis and bring its prices in line with rival Super League sides.
Mr Kenny said some fans had told the club’s management that they were waiting until the ‘early bird’ offer had expired so they could pay full price in support of the club.
“It’s fantastic that fans feel so strongly about the Bulls,” he said.
“We would really like people to carry on coming forward and buying them for Christmas presents. We need people to continue to support the club by buying tickets so we know where we are for the start of next season.
“We have sold 4,200 and we are still confident that 10,000 sales before February is achievable.”
Adult ticket are now priced at £220 at the Terrace, £275 at the Tetley’s Stand and £330 at the Premier Club.
To buy tickets, call the club on 08448 711490 or visit the ticket office.
A fans’ forum will be held in The Coral Stand at the newly-named Provident Stadium at 7pm on Friday.

Only 200 tickets were sold in the early bird extention and since the figure was released a few weeks ago.
Why do the club think an extra 5,800 will be sold now the prices have gone up, the saving is not much anyhow. You may aswell pay on the day as if you miss 2 games your losing out.
Call a spade a spade, season tickets sales are down and won't touch 10,000 but at least they are correctly priced and the future of the club isn't being gambled away like it was with the super cheap tickets.

I'm speaking on the reality of the situation, I have acknowledged that at least the club isn't gambling it's future but no way are 10,000 going to be sold. Infact doubling your current sales would be a fantastic achievement but 10,000 is as realistic as QPR going on an unbeaten run till May.

we dont want the club to be giving out false figures (like in the past) as it will then be egg on our faces if the total of 10,000 isnt reached.remember peter hood stating we would be top 4 material..need a say more. lets be realistic and apprehensive of selling less tickets than anticipated (we are re building) and cut out the childish comments on here.

Congrats on getting that many ST sales so far, although I fear like most clubs once the "early bird" deadline finishes sales dry up.
Just a quick question if I may though. FAO Steam Pigs - Where have you heard our ST sales figure from?

Well done to the OK Bulls team both on and off the field. More has been done in the past couple of months to generate pride, passion, belief, a community spirit and season ticket sales. Than has been done in the last 4 years.We should be supporting these people not moaning and bit***g about what's going on.
By the end of this week, a bar that's open 7 days a week, 2 fans forums, a comedy night, a quiz night, christmas entertainment, a ladies night, a christmas fair, a new sponsor, a sponsors evening will have all happened. Oh I forget they're doing this so our great club fails. Stand up and be counted or shut up.

Many on here probably thought the sun shone out of Hoods backside when he was giving cheap season tickets away and wouldn't hear a bad word against him, but then were the first to turn when the shyte hit the fan.
The club nearly didn't exist a few weeks ago, being a little more cautious won't go amiss rather than announce unrealistic season ticket sales. I just hope that budgets are not being based on 10k people turning up otherwise admin will be on the cards again.

It seems with the press release the other day regarding Entertainment the new regime are at least trying to do that which is more than the previous owners ever day.
I'm not a big fan of Gerry Sutcliffe and I did have my doubts regarding OK...BUT...Both of them are going in the right direction it seems.
I highly doubt you'll get anywhere near 10,000 Season Tickets if the figures above are correct.

ANYONE with the slightest sense at all could see that season ticket sales were going to be down this season.
First of all you loose the free loaders only were interested in getting something on the cheap,(but many come on here and pretend to be real fans). then there are the many who have been thrown out of work and can't afford to pay up for a season ticket. i would think these are the people who will pay at the gate if and when they can afford to go.
then we have the ones who were genuine fans but have just got fed up with the carry on at odsal over the past few years, some of who may return if results on the field start to go our way.
I think they will have done really well if they manage to sell 7000 season tickets by the start of the season.some people may be holding back to see how recruitng goes. We'll just have to wait and see.

like most clubs saints have their share of fickle fans. Just count your blessings, whoever you support. you never know when its your turn.

Last couple of years of high season ticket sales and low pay on the gate were the exception rather than the rule. 4600 adult tickets sold plus another 1400 or so junior and corporate places sold is a decent start and brings in at least as much revenue as the 10k cheap tickets sold last year. When you add in the walkup support, even allowing for a thousand or so not bothering every week, and the new sponsorship deal and we're already in a stronger position financially than we were last year
We never sold 10000 when we were a top side. We'll sell over 5000 which is plenty. The rest can pay on the day bringing in even more revenue.
Considering we expect to finish in the bottom half i think we've showed what great support we have and the the RFL wont be able to cut short our licence.

Well done to the OK Bulls team both on and off the field. More has been done in the past couple of months to generate pride, passion, belief, a community spirit and season ticket sales. Than has been done in the last 4 years.We should be supporting these people not moaning and bit***g about what's going on.
By the end of this week, a bar that's open 7 days a week, 2 fans forums, a comedy night, a quiz night, christmas entertainment, a ladies night, a christmas fair, a new sponsor, a sponsors evening will have all happened. Oh I forget they're doing this so our great club fails. Stand up and be counted or shut up.
What word is it that you have put the asterisks in?

Something needs to be done to entice Family's back to Odsal in my opinion.
It seems with the press release the other day regarding Entertainment the new regime are at least trying to do that which is more than the previous owners ever day.
I'm not a big fan of Gerry Sutcliffe and I did have my doubts regarding OK...BUT...Both of them are going in the right direction it seems.
I highly doubt you'll get anywhere near 10,000 Season Tickets if the figures above are correct.
You last comment here about the 10,000 not being reached will not go down well I'm afraid, they don't do truth.
Marching on together.
Like you Ronnie, not sure where the actual tablets of stone figures come from re other clubs that haven't yet published them..
But I would expect that Leeds figure of 6,500 is a much earlier figure.If correct.
The overall ST tickets will be way above that I suspect, and rightly so!
Our 10,000 has got to be a target figure to aim for, irrespective what anyone says.

I know you're not brightest light on the Christmas tree, but surely even you can see that chin will not fit ***.
I guess that's why you're a sharkratbull and not Rhino.

The season tickets before proved too cheap to be sustainable without large numbers coming through the gates to pay. Glad there are now business people in charge who will keep the club going and get it stronger - dare I say it, where we used to be.
Might be a tough year but with the stability, I hope we'll be challenging for honours in a couple of seasons.
