Default Season Ticket sales bug?

Hey, sorry if this has been mentioned before (and I think it probably has been)

but I have come across what appears to be a bug with season ticket sales at the start of at least season 1. when the board update you to say they have sold x number of season tickets, they inform you they expect to sell x number more..except, we never sell anymore. I get the same update 3 times, saying they expect to sell x more, but they always finish up just selling the number I got first.

I've only seen this twice so far, both in the blue square north/south divisions, so maybe it's just the fact no one wants to watch that level of football!?

The key word there is EXPECT. It doesn't mean you will sell more.

I wish people would stop labelling everything they don't understand as a bug.

I started at Everton played some attractive attacking football scoring plenty of goals and finished fourth and got to the fnal of Euro cup as well as quarters of both domestic cups. In the close season the board increased capacity by around 5,000. I also had success in the transfer market which included bringing in Reyes. Despite all this I went onto sell around 2,500 fewer season tickets for season two. I think there may be a bug there

Anyone else had this? I have no problems whatsoever. With Blackburn in CCC we didn't sell out but once we got to Prem and starting doing ok we were selling out. So i'm not sure there is a problem?

Maybe the board hiked up prices and the fans voted with their feet. Did you check the finance screen to check if prices had gone up?

Yes, I've had this happen to me every season (five in all). It may not be serious, just a minor irritation once you come to expect it, but it DOES appear to be a bug.

The first message says, say, 150 season tickets sold, and the board expect to sell another 100 (I play in Lower leagues too). The next message says the same. No more season tickets are ever sold, the final total is always the same as the first figure mentioned.

It looks as if either the messages are wrongly timed, after all the season ticket buying has been completed, or the season ticket sales are happening all in one go, rather than over a period of time, as the board "expect".

Either way, it is obviously not working as intended.

You may well be right there nobby as season ticket income was up by £4.5m on season one
