Attendance Tonight?

[Wozza]

Pssst! We're playing Hull!

 

[westsussexmackem]

I wonder how many they would bring? Can't see them requesting the 15% as they already have Wembley to look forward to. However, I do seem to remember them bringing 2000 odd for a 2nd round Carling Cup Tie a couple of years back

Was 1,200 odd IIRC. If it's a weekend game then we'll sell out easily, we have a big southern support. Don't think we'll take the extra 15% though as the club never do. But first you've got to get through Hull....

If Sunderland just got 16K, something like 14K would be likely? Perhaps less?

Time of the year for bills.

And in East Upper.

Like most people I always assumed that the figure they give is the tickets-sold one.

However, I'm now a bit confused.

For the Doncaster game the total figure given was almost exactly 27,000, including around 400 away supporters.

Three days later against Leeds the stated total was about 700 higher. As there were around 1500 more away supporters this suggested that the home, um, attendance against Leeds was about 800 less than against Doncaster.

As all corners of the ground were much fuller last Tuesday than three days earlier the implication is that far fewer Brighton supporters bought tickets for Leeds than for Doncaster but far more actually turned up.

This seems rather peculiar but is there any other explanation?

Sounds like a right old laugh up there

 

[kingcole]

See sticky, some people have to travel quite a way to watch the Albion

Yikes - how did I miss that - thanks.....

Hope it's not too bad - at least there are options....

No they didn't, they bought 2,500 down for the carling cup game and will expect them to bring that amount if and i mean IF we meet in the next round

[HawkTheSeagull]

23,653

We got over 20,000 vs Reading remember. Also, tonight it should be actual attendance too.

 

[Munkfish]

Spoke to the ticket office and its over the 20k mark.

 

[severnside gull]

Thinking 20K is a fantastic effort.
Hull have sold 700.

Monday night on tv with rail lines blocked, shit weather etc etc.

 

[horshamite]

Illness will keep me at home this evening though have ticket so I expect I'll be counted as attending! With it on tv softens the blow of not being there. But no balti pie...........

 

[hybrid_x]

after missing our last games' attendance by only 300, i'm going for a 23,333.
