About 500.

Eh? An average of 3000 would make us the best supported club away from home in the football league (and probably the PL). Leeds topped the away fans table last season with an average of 2700. In our division Bristol City could only get 1300 in a promotion season, and Sheff Utd got 1600...

I think there is, but you can always go into the ticket office to request seats there if not. They're are going from 1 ticket window to 5 people serving inside the ticket office tonight, so wouldn't have thought they'll be queues.

Don't deny that. We never had less than 12K for a league game in the Championship at the Ricoh, now 12K is at the top end of what we expect. Not saying that isn't a good turn out all things considered - because it is. Just highlighting how far things have fallen. Carry on winning at home...

Hopefully. It's a measure of how far we have fallen that we consider 12k to be a good crowd. Just a few years ago when we were treading water in the Championship that would have been terrible. Got to get these people back regularly. I worry that a bad run of results and we're back down to...

Will be more than that. Ticket sales pretty healthy apparently. Think the rain this morning could help the walk-up. People less likely to spend the day doing anything else. Confident about tonight. Think we'll win comfortably.

Agree, but Insomnia doesn't actually finish until tomorrow morning. Got to clear out all the nerds and empty the car parks etc.

Managed to shift the extra two tickets as it happens. No real harm done, not the first time I,ve been made to look a tit. Will be having a quiet word tonight though! Stitched right up. I even tweeted the club asking what the fuck was going on. Fair play though - she knows my weakness...

I haven't a clue. At work so just had info by text from wife. I reckon she is behind it. Payback for something I did. Can't believe I fell for it.

It now appears I have 2 spare tickets for Burton :facepalm:

Turns out the letter is fake. Somebody winding me up. Feel a right tit.

Just had a letter from the club stating that due to a computer error, too many tickets have been sold for Burton and they enclosed a cheque for the refunded money. Can't get through on the phone (obviously), but weirdly, tickets are still on sale. Just purchased another 2. All very weird...

I think people are missing the point. He was simply saying that CCFC are the biggest club in his world - and that when people talk about the biggest this and biggest that it is utterly irrelevant really. People drone on about attendances at a given point in time and use it as a gauge of club...

More. They pretty much opened the doors in the end by all accounts. Ran out of tickets on the gate. It wasn't massively more, but definitely more city fans that were at the Wigan game. They had to open two extra blocks for a start.

Bit of a buzz around the ricoh tonight. Queues at ticket office already. Big walk up for this.

The whole ticket system does need looking at. Today for example, no tickets are available at all from Arena Park - which doesn't make a lot of sense, no reason why they couldn't sell them until 4pm say. You can bet people will be turning up there to buy tickets only to be told they have to...

The extra tickets were meant to go on sale Saturday morning but never did. There was even a tweet saying extra tickets now on sale, cue a load of responses saying no they're not! Somebody made an error and didn't actually make them available apparently, which couldn't be fixed until Monday...

No away tickets at Arena Park I believe. Online only, or from Citibase on Lockhurst Lane.

Some desperate games last year atmosphere wise, which was understandable. Some decent ones in amongst that though - Oldham, Bristol City, Peterborough come to mind. Bristol City fan I know said we were the noisiest fans they encountered all season (which ain't saying much, most grounds in this...

Healthy queue at the club shop this morning. Which is curious really. Why would anyone drive to Tesco to buy a ticket they can get 2 quid cheaper online? Odd, but hey, nice to see.
