SUPPORTERS are advised that the ticket office will begin contacting fans who have added their names to the season ticket waiting list towards the end of this week.

With as many as 1,300 names on the waiting list, this process is expected to take between two and four weeks.

Therefore, supporters are urged to remain patient.

2007/08 season ticket holders had until 1pm last Friday to renew their seat. The deadline passed with around 1,600 seats unclaimed.

Supporters can continue adding their names to the waiting list by contacting the ticket office either in person, by phone (call 0871 271 9780) or post.

This is the only way fans can currently apply for a season ticket.

Season tickets will only go on general sale once the requests of all supporters on the waiting list have been satisfied - IF STOCKS LAST.

The ticket office is currently processing seat move requests from 2008/09 season ticket holders.

However, any fans planning to relocate their seat should note that, due to the fact the club have sold almost 20,000 season tickets, there is little availability.

Seat moves are not possible in the Smethwick End as the home section of this stand is completely sold out.

Availability is also very limited in the Birmingham Road End and East Stand.

The most scope for seat moves is in the West Stand but these are restricted to the wings and the corner section.
