Attendances (26 Viewers)

[pusbccfc]

I've just read this on the Charlton forum. It sounds like something our fans would say back in those few seasons we generated incredible atmosphere.

Yeah that's it! Not because we are giving our own fans more seats...

People talking like the ground will be empty Saturday.
It’s literally a couple of rows left in the corner

View attachment 47207

That looks more than the two rows you see.

 

[David O'Day]

Yeah because I find it baffling. I've never once decided not to go to a game because I'm scared of the opposition!

Are West Brom fans not turning up to Coventry because they are scared of us and not Ipswich away?

hurts more if we do them

but if that seat map above is correct it isn't as bad as believed, not full but not empty

The WBA fans Forum has a link for the game on Saturday:

"Franks Child Fleecers v Masons Last Stand"

I went on their forum this morning, it took me longer than I will admit to realise that it was the match thread...

Can't wait for the anger from clubs when they hear we only allocate them 2100 seats.

 

[marrrkjay_ccfc]

Gone are the days where playing Coventry away was a day out with a whole stand given to the away fans. Now they are getting put in the corner, literally.

 

[chiefdave]

What stupidity. We will barely sell couple of hundred seats in block 9.

We've had people wanting King questioned on putting an extra tier on the ground to cope with demand so not really sure we can complain when he's making more tickets available for home fans.

 

[shmmeee]

all those people whining about being too far from the away fan have an incredible opportunity though.

Anyone who seriously suggests expanding the ground needs a fucking lobotomy.

 

[edgy]

The aditional boxing day ones in block 9 are selling already

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Great news. Need to try and maximise all the seats we can. Now just need to look at the balcony and see if there’s anything we can do in both short and long term to get more people there

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Its definitely the sort of utter tripe you'd read on here.
Allocation based on decibels, fucking idiots.

Or the utter tripe you read in Birmingham City's stadium plans...

I'd missed when they went on general sale previously, so just managed to bag 3 together for family members. Back in the good books!

 

[Hullinho87]

Soon find out, now.

 

[Hullinho87]

Mate about another whole block 9 gone on sale as WBA havnt even sold their their first allocation.

Reckon WBA will bring 1k.

Attendance will be 28k

Woukd have been 31k if pricing wasn't ridiculous.


Charlton will be a bigger attendance.

If it is above 30k.

Out of interest, what will your opinion be?

That is was still stupidity?
Or that commercially it was a great decision with litt or no impact on atmosphere or attendance?
Or that ethically it just wasn’t right and that’s all?
Or that it doesn’t matter any way?

I'm sure you're aware that in casual speech "couple" can be used interchangeably as a word for few.

If I'd been aware that I was being scored on the formality of my literacy I would've used a different word

I'm a bit annoyed, I brought an extra ticket in a different block for a family member for boxing day, as there wasnt any seats near our STs at the time. But now Block 9 is open - but they wont move us all into there. Cant do it after the time of purchase apparently.

Great isn't it, Leicester gonna get the same

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

When are they going to release the Ipswich and Leicester home tickets, thought these would be on sale by now

Will be interesting to see the Ipswich category. Leicester will be an obvious Cat A+ but surely Ipswich will be Cat B?

Interesting to see what category Ipswich is classed as. Horrible kick off time & only being 3 days later than Swansea, you would like to think it would be as low as possible

Am I the only one who thinks it's a great kick off time, I know it's not officially a bank holiday but loads of people will be off anyway, not to late for the kids and for adults drinks before and after. Win win

I worry Doug will look at it as a promotion clash against a recently relegated PL side...

28k @ £45 = £1.26m
31k @ £35 = £1.08m

Another win for Douggy Big Bollocks

I agree, if we get a home drawn in the cup it could be a very expensive couple of weeks for those without season tickets.

 

[bawtryneal]

31k @ £35 = £1.08m

Of which 23,000 are season tickets !!
Doh !!

 

[Travs]

Personally i've always preferred the larger away allocations.

Even back to the Highfield Road days..... didn't matter who the opposition was, if they were bringing a full 4000 it just made it better.

 

[SonofErnie]

Based on a 3k reduction in ticket sales it would actually represent a 55k loss (assuming full adult ticket price). Doug only profits if the drop off is less than circa 1800 ticket sales.

Should be

4000 @ £45
7000 @ £37

Me too. That's what the FA Cup retains it's magic. Entire stands full of away fans makes the atmosphere better.

I want wins not atmosphere

 

[Hullinho87]

Wins over atmosphere.
More goals scored than conceded every game.
£3.60p pints.

The BIG 3.

CCFC only profits if the drop off is less than circa 1800 ticket sales.

We really need to get away from this idea that the clubs finances are operated from a shoebox under Doug Kings bed
