Empty seats

[Animis]

Is your type-face size the equivalent of whispering?

 

i'm worried any inference to 1989 might see me banned

They brought about 175 fans, a bit different to 2000.

And 1000 is a bit different to 2000, cause that's what Cardiff have actually sold for today, end of thread.

Still significantly more than Wycombe brought.

They brought around 400, for a relegated team to travel all that way is applaudable, Cardiff however, 1K, last away game of the season, play offs up for grabs, pathetic, £30+ or not, we'd take anything up to 10k if the roles were reversed.

I think what DC will probably do, if he is allowed to see this information, is to read the reports by the SAG on other similar 4 stand stadiums to see if the SAG are coming down harder on us, for some reason.

 

For instance, how come Nottingham Forest can have both home and away supporters in one stand, segregated by about 20 feet, some netting and stewards, yet we have to section off part of the South Stand with netting, when the opposing fans are normally in the upper tier of the West Stand, with steps, stewards and fenced wall between them and the South, which is probably 80 feet or more away? Seems completely OTT to me.

Hopefully only for one half of the match though!!

I'm not saying we haven't tried because I and nobody knows but realistically and with a bit of common sense most clubs would have given Cardiff one part of our away end so we can out noise them and let us have the rest or even put the Cardiff fans in the cheese wedge.

Bang on. It's disgraceful.

It seems the away following today is going to be poor and were gonna be robbed of 5/6k seats that we could have easily have filled. Everybody knew it was going to be a full house today so why did we have to give them the full away end!? Couldn't we have just given them a few hundred tickets somewhere and filled leppings lane with our own fans? Making the atmosphere even more intimidating

 

no certainty that it would be a sell out today going by the crowds this season

At least the Pope is making an appearance on their end.

I thought we'd sold out the north? The white seats are netted our near lep?

So there's a full block of seats, triangle, netting then loads of empty seats between the fans? Oh and it's a different stand?

Truly pathetic

[PeteG_1984]

A lot of shots on tv will look like we are playin behind closed doors

It is true this. I understand the reasons for not selling all tickets (especially considered by events this week involving a particular topic not to be discussed on here) but it's embarrassing us saying its a sell out them seeing a big pukka pies banner surrounded by empty seats.

I also think it's s travesty that there are Wednesday fans wanting to go and willing to pay their fair but denied this yet there are 1000's of empty seats.
