Birmingham attendance (2 Viewers)

[Evo1883]

2 week International break, then Sheffield United away on the Saturday

I'm going to stick my neck out here and say it will be 25,000 on a Tuesday night what we reckon

[covcity4life]

22000

 

[procdoc]

Depends on how we get on at Sheffield Utd

 

[Londonccfcfan]

22000

Will go bang inbetween Evo and you. 23500

 

[pusbccfc]

Yep, depends on the Sheff game.

Get a win, with many watching at home on sky, and the bandwagon will be massive. We could be looking well over 25k.

 

[CDK]

We will get a piont or 3 from sheff utd then Brum on the Tuesday 23,500.

Only 19,500 home fans if we beat Sheffield United?

Here he comes, the beautiful one……

 

[Adge]

Never a great night for football attendance in midweek. With a positive result though hopefully against Sheff Utd I’ll go for 21000 odd.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Gonna go for 24500

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Sheffield united result wont make much difference.

Either way minimum 22k.

 

[I was eleven in 87]

I am trying to book parking for this game but it’s saying that car parks A, B & C are fully booked. Is that right? I though A & B would be full not C as well?

Also, there doesn’t seem to be an option to park in the Tescos bit either? I’ve booked it previously this season for a Cov game.

Anyone got any info on the above?

It will, since the Derby game we've been a bit naff and the crowds have dropped.

Beat Sheffield in front of thousands at home watching on Sky and people will turn up.

Are you in the smirking section moyt?

 

[shmmeee]

I dread to think what the queues will be if we get 25k…

Would be good to break our attendance record for the season, shame it’s a Tuesday and their numbers have been cut.

 

[Grendel]

Sky and midweek may have an impact

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Just need to get there in good time then.

I asked the guy on the gate of car park C ,when it's fully booked online can you still pay on the gate,

He said YES you can, but for ONLY one hundred cars so you MUST get there early and pay the full asking price.

Ok cheers mate, I will hopefully get something sorted out so I don’t have to chance it.

Gotta be 20k though surely

 

[shmmeee]

Gotta be 20k though surely

You’d think so, local Derby, no home game for a while, off the back of a great game. I’m going out on a limb at 22k. Would be nice to see 24/25k but I think it being midweek and them being 1k down will hamper it.

Was truly magnificent last 15 yesterday. What a finish by godden

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Gotta be 20k though surely

I would think so yes they've sold 4000 so I can see it pushing 25000 with a decent result at Sheff Utd

 

[fernandopartridge]

When we played them on a Monday night in 2006 the gate was 27k but I think with 5.5k from Brum

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Will go bang in between Evo and you

We’re unlikely to get 25k for a Tuesday night game on Sky when we only got 17k home supporters yesterday. If Blues bring 4k, a total of 22-23k sounds realistic (assuming a reasonable performance in Sheffield).

Walked away yesterday thinking how anyone without an understandable reason, would rather sit at home and watch that on Sky than being there.

It's as good as any time in the last 20 years at this club. The best atmosphere there has been. The best football for 20 years. Even the day out at the Ricoh is better than ever going to Dhillions and the casino before. It really is that good.

We are 4th in the Championship, playing local rivals Birmingham who are bringing 4000. If the attendance is 21k, it's disappointing.

100% agree. I do a 160 mile round trip for every home game, irrespective of whether the game is on Sky or not and I know lots of people regularly travel much further than that. It's what we do, as nothing can beat live football, whether we were in league 2 or now in the Championship. It's obviously even better when the football and atmosphere are as good as they are at the moment.
However as Pete implies, there are also plenty of more casual fans who will go to the CBSA sometimes, but also will watch on Sky when available as its easier/less hassle. Nothing wrong with that, there will always be people with different priorities and levels of commitment.
I really hope we do get 25k, but as I said earlier I think its unlikely and more likely to be in the 22-23k range. It might change if we turn over Sheffield United though!

I read something the other day about 4K blues fans attending but no trains back to brum after the match so i imagine its away fans that have snapped the parking up.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Trains back from Coventry Central to New St every half an hour until 00.10
