Good shout. Crowd of 23400. I can't comment on Colchester numbers but if what you say is true there were still less than 23k city fans.
Reckon that would be the third highest city fans showing at the Ricoh.
Any others?
Nah, they all brought about 6k fans out of 27-28k attendances.
Only v chelsea when it sold out and v mboro when they only brought about 2k fans have we had much more than 22k city fans.
I can only think of two occassions where there have been many more than 22k City fans at a game at the ricoh - mboro and chelsea in the fac.
This game will definitely see that figure beaten.
I have had to take the afternoon off work during our busiest time of the month, rearrange a course and an important meeting plus found somebody to pick the kids up from nursery.
Can't wait.
Dion was the only player out of that lot to score his goals in the top flight. That he is disliked by so many fans is the bigger mystery.
So he moved to Villa - get over it.
There will only be literally a handful of people who care enough to go to London for the day but not bother going to the semi. No point even worrying about it.
If all teams continue their form of the last 15 games we finish 6th on gd;
Doncaster 94
Brentford 88
Tranmere 85
Swindon 84
Bmth 84
Coventry 79
Yeovil 79
Sheff u 76
Mkd 75
Crewe...
Think its because unclaimed ST seats are yet to be made available. I'd be surprised if we've sold another 7K since 11am.
I did my bit by buying 5 this morning.
