| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 14:43 - May 15 with 12983 views | isitme | I was expecting a larger price increase. The two free under 14 season tickets per adult one is a really good offer and helps with affordability for families. Adding in a safe standing section in the U block is also another positive step. |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 14:57 - May 15 with 12928 views | 100notout | https://rochdaleafc.co.uk/2026 Excellent value. Striking while the irons hot. Lets hope there's a good response from fans |  |

| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 15:14 - May 15 with 12863 views | Trev | Can't argue with those prices. I wonder what is meant by safe standing, any fundamental changes to the stand or just a relaxed view on stewarding as most of the block stands all game anyway. Nice to see some improvements around the ground too, hopefully the Pearl St bar will get some attention at some point too. |  | |  |

I would imagine safe standing would require the higher railing backed seats. This is from the licencing. "SG01: Safe standing in seated areas The Supplementary Guidance 01: Safe Standing in Seated Areas (SG01) highlights the positive benefits of installing either independent barriers or seats incorporating barriers in order to mitigate the risks of progressive crowd collapse. It also summarises the main design and safety management issues associated with such installations." Can't get away with just turning a blindeye to standing and calling it safe standing. |  | |  |

A lot to like here.. U block have proved that they want to be on board with the club.. allowing safe standing is just reward for both the superb support and decent respectful behaviour. £100 under 22 is huge.. well done for that. 2 x free under 14 tickets (with a full paying adult). Brilliant. Klarna Option -Tick. Now lets get stuck into the Data base and contact all the list with these offers and ask the fan base to really get behind the season ticket sales drive. |  | |  |

I'm sure fanbase can do something in that regard for all those who bought tickets for the YORK and Scunny games? |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 15:50 - May 15 with 12593 views | Clivert | Can't complain at those price increases at all! I was thinking £300 for mine in The Pearl Street anyway, as said above £100 for U22s is fantastic value and the 2 x free U14s tickets with a buying adult ST hopefully will appeal to some of the possible new found fans from our last three games. Good work from the club! [Post edited 15 May 15:51]

I typed Mandatory EFL Levy into the Google search box and was give this: The mandatory English Football League (EFL) levy is a required payment enforced by the league under its articles, dictating that home clubs must pay 3% of their net gate receipts from league matches and 3% of net proceeds from season ticket sales directly to the EFL Pool Account. |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 11:09 - May 17 with 11555 views | snuffler | I will definitely be renewing my season tickets this year, but if I get 2 free under 14 tickets for my grandkids, where are they going to be able to sit as all the seats around us are season ticket holders. Can someone explain how this will work |  | |  |

Unless you wait until June when the window for renewal ends and hope the seats next to you come free you will have to move to somewhere where there are free seats together. [Post edited 17 May 12:30]

Thank you.....that Pool Account must have a healthy balance in it. Possily used for Parachute Payments and stuff? |  | |  |

Just take it directly from the TV payments instead... why faff about getting 72 clubs to work out what they owe..? I get a bit sceptical when I hear about different pots of money for this and that.. seems like a way to prevent clarity... |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 10:10 - May 18 with 10582 views | dingdangblue | The free U14's is a great inniative but what's to stop adult fans abusing it. Nobody checks phones on the way in - unless there is a dedicated turnstile for U14's free tickets it is going to be misused. |  |

I would call the club and they can move you manually to a seat where there are two available seats alongside. They will want to accommodate your renewal. |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 13:16 - May 18 with 10231 views | heywooddale | Does anyone know at what point the Klarna option shows up? Can't see it when buying a new season ticket. Worried about going past the card details bit as I don't want to pay the full amount at this point. [Post edited 18 May 13:25]

| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 14:27 - May 18 with 10042 views | jollyb | So easy on Fanbase, renewed. Only concern is we have another family member who lives further away. They're a member but can't attend enough games to justify the cost of a season ticket. We'd want to be seated together when he attends. I know you can move seats for £10 but that's £40 to move all of our season tickets if we need to and there's no spare seat near us. Still, great pricing and really easy to renew and purchase too. Can't wait for the new season! |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 17:55 - May 18 with 9745 views | snuffler | I renewed today, but was told I couldn’t get free under 14 tickets until 8th June as they were only renewing season tickets until then. I would have to ring up then and they would allocate the under 14 tickets to my account. |  | |  |
| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 13:28 - May 31 with 8223 views | Dalenet | Over 2,000 sold now and with it being the end of the month I suspect many people being paid will take the plunge this week. |  | |  |

If that’s correct…. And no reason to doubt at all….. Magnificent and it does show that there is an appetite for Dale moving forward. Project 5000 SHOULD be firmly on |  | |  |

Yes, plenty of selling time left before the start of the season, Suspect annual holiday outlay will be given priority by many.....but ST sales will trickle on. The Club need to keep the fans engaged with quality Dale content over summer. |  | |  |

| Season tickets on sale on Monday on 08:20 - Jun 9 with 6231 views | dingdangblue | Renewed mine on Sunday. Was hoping to use the Klarna 3 month payment option on my card but nothing came up in the checkout. The club do advertise Klarna as a payment option but for some reason it never appeared on my phone. |  |
