Blimey it was a sell out today?

For pity's sake, just stop digging, at this rate you'll never be able to climb out.
Not digging, just putting all the j'accuse assumers back in their boxes because they're unable to tell the difference between an observation between normal empty STH seats and the rest in a 'sell out.' A lot of fans seem extremely precious about any thread concerning attendances even if it is about matchday sales.

I struggle to care about who has turned up and who hasn't. As someone else mentioned, at any given point in a match there are plenty of people not in their seats. Yesterday a lot of people missed the second goal judging by the numbers who rushed in carrying coffees just after. Bit unfortunate for them but it really doesn't matter. On the other hand I don't go to Tuesday night games so it's nice to know there are people wondering where I am and if I am OK :)

Have you bought a matchday ticket only for Ipswich game? Is it likely to sell out? And if you struggle to care...why are you posting on this thread?

Nope, my wife and I won't be using our season tickets on Tuesday. We will be in the warm with nice cups of coffee and listening to the radio commentary . I'm posting on the thread old chap to express the opposite point of view.

But it's not about ST no shows so your opposite point of view isn't relevant?

Just reading BBC report which mentions and didn't realise it was. Guess we sold out in the way Arsenal
do. I know people can't make every game like me but we must have a lot on the day no shows who have actually bought tickets rather than ST's as noticed still lots gaps in areas not open normally.

Wonder how many home seats weren't actually taken today? 2-3k?
probably:hilton:

Was simply wondering how you know whether an empty seat is STH or not.
What do you want? Grid references? You know because some areas aren't for sale normally and still had empties yday. Plus there are lots of pockets in many stands where people are very rarely seated. Must be entire groups of people who coordinate their stay aways for every game if STH; or you can just take a punt on them being non STH seats because that would be highly unusual.

I have a tendency to take threads off topic when some other aspect gets my interest. I do the same thing in the pub in real life. Must be an age thing. Apologies.
And nothing wrong with that, enjoy your pint.

So a 'punt' then.
