How many subscribed supporters ur club has for this season?

Well, although I don't the numbers of my club Lyon I'll give you an example of what I'm asking:

Club:
Marseille.

Out of 60 000 seats 42000 have been sold for their supporters for this year, while 19 000 will be sold for other supporters. Which make 70% of the capacity.
What are you club politics so far?

Completely sold out for ages, we really need a bigger stadium, and we will get one, albeit not exactly what the fans had hope for, at least after the first step of the renewing process.

I take it you mean season ticket holders? Norwich have around 20,000 again this season which is about 600 under the maximum available last time I heard, thats in a 26,000 capacity stadium.

Cadiz have sold around 12,000 so far, a few more can be sold, but it is still a three sided stadium so the capacity is only around 18,000.

I think the best statistics to look at to determine a team's support are membership numbers. From what I have seen, these figures are reletively easy to get in Spain as numero de socios but are difficult to find here in England. I think Cadiz have around 20,000 members and I would predict Norwich at around 30,000.

We have around 10.000 seats and it is expected that we will have 6500 a 7000 season tickets holder. When you take in account that we are in the regio as Feyenoord, Excelsior and FC Dordrecht that's quite a decent number.

It is expected that we will have a 8% rise this season of season ticket holders, there are some vague plans to expand the stadium.

And this is for a club which was a in a lower division a short while ago.

Feyenoord's policy used to be not to sell all seats to seasonticketholders. Since the club has more members than seats in the stadium, this made sure everybody has a chance to visit matches.

This season for the first time the club decided to sell 40,000 seasontickets (they're about sold). This means for 'risk matches' (like v Ajax or PSV) when the stadium has less capacity (due to security measures) there will not be any tickets available. For other matches there will be 9,000 tickets available for members.

Feyenoord is aiming to build a bigger stadium (60,000-70,000) in the near future.

Tomorrow 60,000- 80,000 people are expected to visit Feyenoord's free 'Open Day' with all kinds of activities around & in the stadium.

I think we have surprisingly few season tickets for a stadium the size of the Emirates. The club limit how many season tickets we sell and so there are roughly 30,000 season ticket holders at the Emirates, with a capped waiting list of 40,000.

There are 180,000+ registered, paying members of the club in total, and the rest of the tickets are sold to these fans. I'm not sure if any league games went to general sale last year or not.

We've had about 40,000 season ticket holders this season, and hopefully the number can reach close to 50,000.

Yes, I meant season ticket holders

Don't they leave some extra seats available?

10 000 last year. This year the number will be much small as a lot of suporters are against the owner of the club. As a punishment, Steaua sold no season tickets in the North and South stands. So I guess most of us (I ussualy go to games in the North stand) will have to buy tickets for every game.

What happened exactly? How big is your stadium btw?

Of course. But it will not be a real football arena after the first step of the renewing / rebuilding process. For that to happen, a second step will be necessary. The fans were fuming, and the board has promised them that the second step will definitely happen.

The new stadium will have another 8.000-10.000 seats, ~52.000-53.000 seats altogether. At the current location (which is great, in the middle of the city, right next to the river Weser), that will be the limit. A bigger stadium would have to be a completely new one elsewhere, very expensive. Traditionalists don't want us to give up the Weserstadion anyway, me included.

When is this stadium expected?

The plans are finished, they still have to decide about it (like I said, the fans are not really happy). If everything goes according to plan, the rebuilding will start next summer, and be finished after a few months (first step). Don't know when the second step will be done, it's a matter of cost also.

Season Tickets: 86,000+ (dunno exact number)

Members (season ticket holders also have membership card): 155,000+

26,000 season tickets have been sold...36,000 seats in our stadium but 3,000 are for away fans (2,000 for smaller clubs).

28 000 seats. The problem is in Romania people will rather buy tickets then season tickets. This is because you never know how many games will actually see. The idiots at the FA decided to fight against hooligans by banning the stadium and not the few persons responsible for the incidents. For instance we only played 2 game at Ghencea in second part of last season, and not 7 as we should.

Our owner is crazy. Literally. He has the “I’m the boss, I’ll do what I want” mentality. Some of the supporters (myself included) didn’t take this to kindly as we think a football club is not like other business. When we first started to protest against his bizarre decisions or comments (on time he went to a Dinamo game and put on one of their scarf, this is something close to blasphemy for us) he said that he will deal with us he’s one way. And he started already. He doubled the prices for the games, didn’t put out any season tickets for parts of the stadium, said that he will sent he bodyguards to deal with “the trouble makers”. Stuff like that.

Season Tickets holders: Around 35.000/40.000
Dragão Stadium have about 52.000 seats. It is rare to have more than 1000 away supporters at our stadium except against the other 2 big, or an uefa contender side like Braga or Guimarãres.
If it is an european game only the english and big spanish clubs will draw more than that.

Members
Well if you meant "sócios" we have around 100.000 as we only accept till that number, new sócios will only be accepted if others leave

No matches went to General sale last year. The Emirates Cup were the first matches at the emirates which went to general sale.

Don't Barca claim to have the most members of any sporting foundation in the world cule? Surely there must be more than 155,000 members if SG's figures of 180,000 are correct for Arsenal?

Two weeks or so ago they announced on the Barça website that they had reached teh 155,000 mark.

NCFC, I've copied these statements from the Arsenal website. Interestingly it says that we've overtaken Benfica's record for having the most paid club members:

Arsenal Season Ticket waiting list

There are currently in excess of 40,000 people on Arsenal’s Season Ticket waiting list.

Arsenal Membership

There are currently approximately 185,000 members of Arsenal’s official membership scheme — ‘The Arsenal’, which includes all current Season Ticket Holders.

Red level Facts

With over 180,000 Club members, Arsenal have surpassed Benfica’s 2006 Guinness Book of World Records entry of 161,000 paid club members!

don't know the exact number but Ajax has more than 40,000 season ticket holders.

How much do you pay for an Arsenal membership?

Red membership is the general membership and that is £30 a year I think. I'm not sure how much silver level membership is, but presumably it is slightly more expensive because they have a better chance of getting tickets for games. Gold level membership is just for season ticket holders. You don't pay anything to become a gold level member other than the cost of the season ticket, the membership is included in that.

Then there is platinum level for club seat holders and box holders. The club do nicely out of the red members though, a lot of them pay money and don't even go to see a game.

That explains why. A Barça membership costs around 145€ (about £100) a year.

Sporting is aiming for 40, 000 this season out of a 50, 000 seat stadium.

Last year was just under 35, 000 with 34 and some change sold.

Tickets are still pretty expensive for the amount of money people make...

Doninha has his season pass already.

Shhhh!

Don't tell them; they've been convinced they're the biggest club in the world for decades.

I think we have about 23k STs. About 500 new ones were released for this season (to members with most loyalty points from last season).

Ah okay thats interesting. I have always had that stat in my mind about Barca though. So Arsenal are now the biggest club in the world according to that statistic. Quite amazing I say.
