After Vilnius "Žalgiris" has already sold 2 thousand season tickets, discussions have arisen on the club's "Facebook" page about whether the team will see all the fans at the games.

The president of the A league team, Andrius Tapinas, began to explain the situation:

"Let's model one of the worst-case scenarios: our match day advertising doesn't work, personal reminders, match day entertainment, and at this moment of the 2000 we have, only 50% come, and another 50% bring at least one child - that is 1500. PietuIV/ŽBV comes in any weather - I already know there will be 300, then there are Academy kids and parents who received season tickets as gifts, again in the worst-case scenario, only one out of three will come and only with one of the parents, that's another 300 people.

There are also VIPs, where it seems there will be many who want to come, and only those deserved will get in to "Žalgiris". And yet, for some reason, we are unable to sell a single ticket for match day. So even in this worst-case scenario, we have over 2000 people for this day. But we all understand that there will not be the worst-case scenario, because today is December 12, and most likely we will need to stop selling season tickets at some point."
