Attendance for the hull game.

[Simster]

I bet if we draw man city/Chelsea at home and that game is on a Monday night, all those people who couldn't be bothered to go hull game, will be running over glass to get to get a ticket !!

This! I was going to say that the quarter final draw will have a bearing on the gate. Home to Charlton and our fans will be sniffing Wembley. Chelsea or City and there will also be interest stoked.

Either scenario could add 2-3000 onto my predicted gate of 20,000 ish

 

[Bruntburger]

21242 - trust me.

Does that figure include me, as I haven't decided if I'm going yet and it would be great if I could know now whether I'm there or not? Help me plan the diary. Thanks

 

[Tesco in Disguise]

chance to get to 6th round for the first time since 86, must be 22 - 23 thou Imho

Or the third time in four years.

10,000 off the gate because it is a Monday will offset the 247k broadcast fee so no gain there. (Ticket sales, pies, beer, merchandise etc)

 

[The Birdman]

I think we may get 28,000+ good priced tickets a premiership side , a chance to beat them and I think its half term. Also it might appeal to the guys and girls who play or work on a Saturdays. It will also help if we win our next couple of league games and make a couple of good signings. Not to much to ask for. Let's be positive about this one encourage a good crowd.

 

[Return of the Rev]

Between 22k-24k result 0-0 rain and late home,atmosphere starts good poor the last 35 minutes,hundreds nipping off early

 

[El Presidente]

If we get less than 22,000 at those prices it shows a lack of ambition from the fanbase surely?

 

[shangambling1]

There was 20k+ at Reading, don't see why there would be less against a Premier League club for a chance to get in the Quaters of the FA Cup
Yes it's on BT Sport but it's at home.. I know where i'd rather be

 

[The Birdman]

If I was Hull football club I would offer a good deal for the game by coach something like £30 for match ticket and coach included which it less than they pay just for a premiership game and we may get a couple of thousand+ away fans. Brighton good pricing is making this possible. So rev give me 26,000+ for a fiver bet!and double or quits you will stay to the end if we are winning!

I know where I would rather be to, but the club are not helping the situation. The Reading game was an afternoon transport schedule and two Park and Ride sites open. This game there is only one Park and Ride open and in my area the amount of buses greatly reduces in the evening. If you take the number 25 bus which is probably the most regular from the Amex this service halves in the evenings.

I really hope they have second thoughts about the other two Park and Ride sites.

 

[Notters]

Surely plenty of tickets will sell after we sign Messi this afternoon?

Are you going?

 

[El Presidente]

Are you going?

Of course.

 

[SeagullSongs]

22,121 with 300 from Hull.

Crazy decision to put it on a Monday night. Are Hull the team who have to travel farthest in the 5th round?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

I predict just over 20,000. Potentially lost 2,000 away fans and 5,000 Brighton fans attending by the switch in dates to satisfy TV schedules.

Since when did that matter to the TV people?

I have just had this e-mail from the club which is good news



"Supporters wishing to use the matchday park-and-ride services should pre-book before midday on Wednesday 12 February, bookings may be made online, over the phone or in person at the Ticket Office. After midday on Wednesday 12 February park and ride will be available to book in person, supporters can also pay on the day. Mill Road Park and Ride will initially be available. Mithras House and Brighton Racecourse will be opened subject to demand."

 

[northernseagull]

How many people have BT sport?!! It will be upwards of 25k given that its half term and cheap as chips!!

 

[Puppet Master]

Around 20k, 700 from Hull.

 

[Seasidesage]

In excess of 20k exactly how much will depend on results between now and then...
