Right, I've realised I might be able to get that Saturday off parenting as Mrs WM is potentially taking the kids out.

If that's the case...if anyone has a spare ticket, I'd be keen

Are you Argentinian and have to fly across the world to get to the game? If not then I'm not interested in helping you...

Did not do anything-just tell him to scan the ticket and go in. It’s not like the minimum wagers on the turnstiles will be checking everyone’s ticket that goes in.

Last game probably correct
Other times it could end up with not getting in ans losing the season ticket
Club don’t mind adults using adult tickets or kids using kids

Depends on prices.

£30 and we'd get 45k against Boro. We are a major city with a big wider catchment area.

The way football has gone over the past few years I’m confident we’d pull in 40k if the price was right. But expect 40k one week and 28k the following for some games. It was common for that to happen with some city matches.

Remember the disparity in attendances for our first game back at the Ricoh against Gillingham in 2014 and then the next game?

Yep Yeovil. Plenty deserted the team a week after one of our best nights in 15 years.

Just looking at Leeds who sell out 27k STs a year in a 39k ground with around 3k away fans. So that’s about 27/36 or 75% cap on STs.

Translate that to us and we have I think 29k home fans so a similar ST cap would be just under 22k. I think we sell that next year if we didn’t already this year.

Leeds have a 25k ST waiting list, IIRC.

We sold more than 22k this year. So here’s hoping for the same next season.

Didn’t cap by qty, but by date if I remember correctly. Wouldn’t be surprised if we did get promoted that they would cap at current or near current level.
clubs in the premier league love the tourist fan as they get more revenue per person per game. The likes of Liverpool Man U etc get £70 + per match ticket add on the merchandise etc, they have something like 45% ST and massive waiting lists- Liverpool only have 27000 STs in a 60000 stadium.

if you have one, renew, if we do go up they could be hard to get.

Leicester capped at about 25k. I’d imagine we’d do something similar.

Matchday sales are crucial to allow new fans to come along

Any news on this being on Sky main event and therefore any more being available?

Similarly I'm shocked they've not run the exchange again...

I reckon if Bristol lose tonight they’ll use their game as its both play offs and relegation.

They'll have a couple on main channels and the rest will be on the red button surely

I think the problem is, there are a lot of pivotal games which cover winning the title, the battle for 5th and 6th and the multiple relegation battles. Too many to choose from so could be a toss of a coin

Bang for your buck is probably Bristol v Preston and Millwall v Burnley if I were Sky programmer.

Isn't there a light on the concourse side of the turnstyle that lights up to indicate a concession/junior admission?
Or is this a myth on a par with the TV detector van?

Yes Green for normal tickets Red for concessions.

Still don't understand why we gave Boro 2800 if we're not going to open up more seats towards the segregation?

Why have police and stewards in our end taking up seats but not in the Boro bit?

Club expecting a crowd of 31.4k, which is more than the WBA game.

Chelsea attendance was 31,407 so there’s a chance it’ll be the biggest crowd in all competitions

I think it's because of the TV cameras as its the main game on Sky

Think you will find the Cov fans will be all the way to the railings and the gap will be in the Middlesbrough end this time.

Would do but it's not the case is it? The cameras are in 5 and the South Stand seats remain empty.

Thanks for the recommendation for St Finbarrs for the parking, it was decent little place. Good luck against the Mackems please beat them and it will make up a little for our recent encounters over the past couple of years.
