Yes it is back.Win a bottle of wine by having the nearest Guess.The question is "How many Season Tickets will have been sold at 259pm on Saturday 3rd August,the opening day of the League Season"? I will check with David Laming in the Club shop.
NEW RULES.You can submit a guess up to midnight on Saturday,20th July as the club will periodically update us.YOU CAN HAVE 3 GUESSES.However,one must be in May,one in June and one in July.Crafty eh!
BACKGROUND FACTS. In 2018 it was won by Ballingrypar.He guessed 3022.At the end of August The Seasons stood at 3408 and increased to 3423 at Christmas.In 2017 It was won by Sliema Par (one doesn't like to boast) with a figure of 2833.By end August it had increased to 3028 then surged to3587 at Christmas.
Seasons go on sale this Friday.
Good Luck!

If you are considering your first guess for the month of May; it may help that at this date in 2017 the Club had sold 1148.
In 2018 the figure had increased to 1302.
The club will soon start updating us.

Given Season Ticket sales are currently ahead of last year; few fans are guessing anywhere near last year's total.That was 3022 on the opening day of the League Season.

While I regret not being able to give you exact figures; my "sources" suggest that the current total is ,at least ,as good as the 2160 on this day last year.
If you have not had your guess for the month of June,please have a go.
It's only a bit of fun and you could win the bottle of wine!

On this date in 2018 we had reached 2279 So Matthew's figure tomorrow will be very interesting.
David Laming says sales are holding up well and he is encouraged by so many brand new sales.
Will those who have not yet made their June guess take the figure into consideration?
The Open Day will see a big increase too.

It is July.
That means that ,between today and 20th July, you can have your third and last guess.
We are likely to get a couple of Club updates on Season Tickets sold in that period.
The question was "How many Season Tickets will have been sold by 259pm on Saturday ,3rd August,the opening day of the new League Season"?
Good Luck!Try not to duplicate another fan's guess,thanks.

We have a winner!!
Matt has just announced the figure was 2360.
The winner is SAP PAR, who guessed within just 7 with 2367 ,on Wednesday, 29th May at 2318 hours.
Facing opprobrium ,as he had two guesses in May,he agreed on Wednesday, 26th June at 1412 that that was now his guess for June.Congratulations.
Runner Up was Westies squint kicks with 2345 ,out by only 15.
A mention in despatches for both Yankee Dollar ,who reckoned 2333 within 27 ,and AdamAntsParsStripe ,who estimated 2387 ,also just 27 out.
The winning bottle will be deposited in the Club Shop on Wednesday morning ,14th August if the flight from Luqa Malta arrives on time.
Thank you to all who took part in the last 13 weeks.

So how does 2360 compare with the same time last year?
Last season there was nearly 1000 free tickets included I think.
This season all paid so would guess less tickets, but more income.

On 04/08/2018 the Club reported 3022 Seasons sold.
After the Festive Half Price sale ,the final figure for the season was 3423.
At the last Supporters' Council meeting,Ross said 500 had been freebies to attract kids to East End.
In the last week 106 were sold.
Also note that income will be similar to 2018 due to the price increase.
