And my tenner bet that we get over 30,000 is looking quite safe now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiffowl06 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Does 20,000 include season ticket holders? If not then thats about 30,000 there + 2,000 free tickets + 1,000 away fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris E Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Can we please get some clarification here people. I can see where this thread's going. When will Brownlad get his allocation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest swfc60 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Anyone know for sure whether this includes ST holders and if so how many ST's did we sell. Would have thought around 4-5000 at least will be sold on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 It will include ST holders, didnt Kaven say we sold 12k ish? So 8k extra tickets have been sold so far. Not great to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiffowl06 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 If the figure includes season ticket holders then sales are wee wee poor for a game this cheap. I actually agree. If it does then its poor. If it doesn't then we are doing very well. Looking at the online ticketing (yeah its not accurate), it looks as though it is including them as the kop has plenty of green blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Parky1867 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Disappointing if it does include ST holders. Hopefully allowing people to pay on the day for cheap is distorting it slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowedges-owl Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 We have sold around 20,500 which includes season ticket sales. Wednesday have given away just over 3,000 freebies. This does not include Charltons coach that they are bringing up. So in total we are looking at around 24,000 for the match so far. Pay on the day so we should get around 26,000 Not bad to say we are playing the bottom of the league WTID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiffowl06 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 26,000 is LOW 30,000 is the minimum we should have got. The phrasing that '20,000 tickets have been sold for the game' makes it sound like it doesn't include season ticket holders though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The phrasing that '20,000 tickets have been sold for the game' makes it sound like it doesn't include season ticket holders though. How does it sound like it doesnt include ST holders A season ticket is a sale for every game, therefore counted a ticket sold for this and every game.

latemodelchild Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 looks like most of them will be in the south stand. Seems busy on there. I'll be disappointed if we dont break the 30k mark. Then again, i wont be surprised. Lets just give away enough tickets to take us to the highest attendance and crow about it. Works for the blunts.

Belfast Owl 2 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I blame Brownlad He is hogging all the NW corner seats anyway the attendnace will disapoint a lot of people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31Dec1966 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Not sure whether it includes ST's or not but the OS is telling people to hurry up as tickets are going fast and even mentions the possibility of a sell-out. If this is true, great, if it isn't true, still great as it means the club are learning about marketing! 1300 tickets given to current AND FORMER corporate clients, another good move. 2000 tickets for local kids, at last. We, the fans, now have to keep the ball rolling by encouraging others to come. The target has got to be the divisions biggest crowd and anything over 32,000 will mean that, just like last season we will have had the biggest crowd in Sheffield. The Blunts can't even say that it's only because it was cheap because that's the only reason they are getting good crowds! The tide is turning folks, come on down!

Guest Parky1867 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I was hoping for 28k+ Reckon its more likely to be around 26k now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan27 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I reckon we'll be around the 28,000 to 30,000 mark, alot of people will buy tickets later this week, plus with the prices staying the same on the day, that will entice alot more people in.

cardiffowl06 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 33,010 is the highest championship attendance. We will reach it, but not V Charlton. v Cardiff on the last day could be a different story, if it was £10 and £5 then. Thats not even thinking about the chances to sell out with the new ticketing policy coming into force soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
