Suppose Falmer were to open this season...

[The Large One]

... how many away League One fans do you think each club would attract to the new ground? Bearing in mind the away end is 2,200-2,300 (I'm sure the actual figure is around somewhere), I'd suspect...

Southampton
Charlton
Sheffield Wednesday
Huddersfield Town
would almost certainly fill it.

Swindon Town
Plymouth Argyle
Leyton Orient
would at least 80% fill it.

What about the others?

 

[Joe Pineapples]

Mightn't Bristol give it a good go? Bought 70-80% maybe?

 

[algie]

2575 Al

 

[Smithy]

Carlisle - 20%?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Swindon didn't even fill Withdean last season and nor did Orient so I doubt they'd get near the 80% figure, were it not for the novelty new ground factor. Plymouth always have lots of London based support so they might.

 

[Husty]

doesn't it have to be 15% of total capcity so more around the region of 3300?

 

[The Ringleader Returns!]

Orient - 80%
60% MAYBE.

 

[STERNS AND SURVIVED!!]

Well we will find out next season.

 

[Notters]

Orient 2,575

Brentford maybe but not fecking Orient.

10% league games - they will be given 2,575
15% cup games - they will be given 2,575 (south stand) + 600 (East stand)

 

[patchamalbion]

Soton and Sheff Wed would sell out
Charlton,Brentford,Swindon,Bristol Rovers,Hudds might bring 1500?
Orient,bournemouth,pboro,plymouth maybe 1000

this is assuming every game is a saturday

 

[The Large One]

2575 Al

Cheers.

Carlisle - 20%?

Of course, it depends when during the season it would be. Tuesday night in February - maybe. But a Saturday in August - 1,500 I reckon.

No-one fills Withdean anymore.

PLEASE - what on IO happened to you on Sunday?

 

[Dover]

Too much month and not enough money. It was my birthday, and I spent too much on the barbie etc. I hope someone else went on the ticket.

Anyway. How many can fit in the other two stands?

I think Southampton and Charlton would come close to selling out regardless of the day or time the game was played...not sure about any of the rest though, can't see many being able to muster more than 5-600 for a wet Tuesday evening in February, regardless of the novelty factor of going to a new ground.

From memory:
north - 2500
south - 2500
west - 12,000
east - 5,500

Just about! I think it's hilarious that even the east stand is bigger than the home capacity of the withdean was when we moved there.
