    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    It looks about right to me. First 3 rows netted off, and loads of seats in 25, 26 and 27 have been reserved for POTG and haven't actually been sold. Slightly less than last week seems about right.

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    That 87/88 season we had 11th highest average, but I often remember laughing at the attendance figures. Some serious tax fiddling went on that season. Man U had 29K for a PL game in 92/93 (their first title winning season in an age). Chelsea 8K. Comparisons with gates through to 80s into the...

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    The lowest season average we were third from bottom (92/93). Same the season after (but capacity was only 17K as we only had 3 sides of the ground open). After that there were always 3-5 clubs below us - including the likes of Leicester and Derby.

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    That never actually happened iirc (edit: it happened twice). In Division 1 yes, not in the PL. Those gates were of the time anyway - Chelsea has 8,000 at home against us in the PL in 94/95 (could have been 93/94). Our last 4 seasons in the PL it was 20K+. All that said, the gate tomorrow...

    All this talk of crowds

    The OP is correct, play-off attendances are often not much above the league average. Expectations were way too high. It should also be noted, that our average attendance this season is up on last term. Not many predicted that. We shouldn't be too hard on ourselves. Our gate will be the...

    That might happen, then again if you were doing that many away games chances are you'd be attending with the same people anyway. Like I say, this is common elsewhere and works fine. We had this system in the 90s, although in those pre-internet days they'd add a stamp to the spare pages on your...

    Away leg ticket details

    No, that's not how they work. Priority is given to ST holders with say 10+ stamps/points, then 5+, then just season ticket holders and so on (just as an example). It would only apply for very high demand games. Englandfans works like this and many clubs employ this kind of priority system. If...

    Away leg ticket details

    Points systems are used at many clubs, and we had one many seasons ago (tickets were allocated based on 'stamps'). There have been many games this season where tickets sold in a few hours - Lincoln, Luton, Exeter, Cheltenham, Forest Green, Brighton and next week. It makes sense to have a...

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    I guess people think of occasions like Crewe and Gillingham and perhaps expected a similar response. I didn't personally. Everyone who wanted a Wembley ticket last year got one. It's on TV, it's full price and it's one week on from our biggest gate of the season, which may have put a few of...

    Really? The 12 I got were on 6 season tickets, but if I'd known that I'd could have filled my boots.

    Will our fans behave at County?

    Think we're being a bit dramatic. There were 12 in our group for the league game, we were in Nottingham at 10am. This time round we're all going by cars at different times after work. Train times are tight, especially if there is extra time so not many will do that. I don't expect any major...

    Why are you wondering that?

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    Yeah, Notts got a couple of big gates based on a £2 offer. I think our gates were fine. We averaged more than anyone else, so gate receipts would have been far in excess of other leading clubs. Lincoln and Luton particularly filled their grounds with ST holders paying £13 a game. Around half...

    Notts County away - 2,000 tickets

    I think the difference is down to the closure of the bottom 3 rows.

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    We actually finished top of the average attendance figures, skewed a little by that Accrington game granted: League Two 2017/2018 - Attendance

    Will our fans behave at County?

    It'll be fine. It'll be a different following there than the league game, less about a day on the lash, more about the game. Stewards/police will be all over it. It's part of why they close the bottom 3 rows for play off games. Not worth worrying about. You might equally ask if Notts fans...

    Guess The Crowd v Notts County

    Yeah, probably. To be fair, quite a few have shifted already this morning.
