If we played Liverpool @ the Amex with a higher capacity!

[wigman]

I have lost count with the amount of people asking if i can get them a ticket for this game.
If the Amex had a massive capacity, what size crowd do people think we would get for this game bearing in mind how many plastics there are around the county.
I would say easily 40k, anyone else agree with me or anyone think im mad ?

 

[clippedgull]

You are mad!

 

[Martinf]

I would think 25K. 40,000 for a Carling Cup tie? I don't think so.

 

[wigman]

You are mad!

Cheers, but i stand by my quote !

30k

however we wouldn't get that for someone like Burnley sadly..

It definitely would with the amount of plastics there are around.

Well they haven't taken their 15% allocation for this tie so that probably gives a good measure of their travelling support in a game of this importance.

If The Amex had a 40k capacity this game would be declared a sellout and the official attendance on the night announced as 36,489

you saying that with a cheeky wink...

In all honesty if the entire sth base brought 2 people each (very possible) plus away sold out 2500 its more like 55k+

Not sure - 3,500?

They could fill the South Stand with Sussex Plastics alone .

I remember a cup tie at the Goldstone against Liverpool and someone in the away end unfurled a banner which read: 'Brighton Reds'.

Was that not Man Utd ?

Indeed, but most plastics, by their very nature, probably would to go to a game even if it was happening in their back garden.

Thought it was Liverpool Wiggy, but I could be wrong. The old memory is a bit fuddled.

55,000 for an Albion Carling Cup match? Think you may be rather over doing it if you don't mind me saying but no doubt huge interest. I 've been asked for tickets by several people already so think 30,000 plus could have been achieved. The club cannot get those extra 8000 seats in fast enough.
