This is what I really don’t get about Chansiri. He tells us that gate income makes no difference. On this basis you’d think that he’d want to showcase his prize asset in front of the nation’s TV audience and, you never know, a potential purchaser if he really is looking to sell. Empty seats do him no favours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But £46 a ticket is vomit inducing and DC wants dragging over hot coals! I wish higher powers in the game would have some back bone and step in There's a number of reasons why we won't sell out but the main one is the price of tickets. Anyone near minimum wage just won't be able to afford it, especially those with family to support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree but the only thing I’d say is that the same people you mention paid 3 times as much to go to Wembley - we’ve known this is our big game this season, sickening prices yes but ........ Anyway it is what it is, just a shame before a game like this the biggest talking point is ticket prices - DC sometimes is nothing short of a disgrace 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a contradiction in tone there really. I thought, by the tone of your first post you meant that, you weren’t bothered in the slightest about Monday’s attendance. And I thought, you were genuinely asking why the attendance figure was of anyone’s concern. I now realise that what you meant was, it would be great if we sold out but even if we don’t, it’ll still be an ok attendance and a good atmosphere. Right? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who wouldn’t? But I won’t be losing and sleep over it, and I certainly won’t be calling our fans embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SbkOwl Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 16 hours ago, The only way is S6 said: Hopefully block T in the north will be sold. I can't understand how cheese corner alone isn't good enough segregation between home & away fans. Barmy. T block is always used as segregation no matter who we play, but there using T1 now aswell, so that leaves the NW corner/ T & T1 blocks as segregation! You couldn’t make it up, It’s like “Carry on Policing”! Absolute joke, Im a member and normally sit in T1 with my two sons but won’t be going with it not being open and moved to a Monday night! shameful!

latemodelchild Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Isn't the very end block left free because there's normally a few fans standing down that end who don't have tickets for that area? Always seems very crowded. Think it's there as a bit of a pressure release type thing. If everyone sat or stood in their own seat it would be able to be sold I reckon.

sternlad Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 So, I just went on SWFC website and couldn’t get to see the ground seating plan for Monday night as the buttons weren’t active to select seats, does this mean all our end of the ground have been sold or what? Couldn’t see any info saying tickets no longer available- seems a bit strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sternlad Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Reyt now I get it - it’s down to my account, which I last used in 1896 to enable me to get tickets for the Cup Final. Oh Well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
