Easily. North Stand was on half full. Plenty empty seats in the posh side and 3000 empty seats in the away end.

Lots of empty seats near me in block 19 , very unusual as they are all season tickets .

They will be counted as attendance if they are ST

Squash the lot together including away fans I’d say one of the stands behind the goal would be virtually empty.

No way was that the same attendance as Derby at home last year. Hospitality was sold out. As was upper tier.

That's the fullest I seen it since Accrington at home when there was 25k plus and accrington didnt bring too many. Maybe it's just me.

That seemed like more than 21k home fans.

In which case Walsgraves going to be busy this week.
Had a pint at half time that was undrinkable.
I'm used to getting served pig swill at the Ricoh but this was next level.

Derby felt much busier and was louder. Away end more populated too.

Bournemouth last season felt like more too.

Boyle sports have a lot of sponsorship banners in the stadium which take up seats

3.3K seats empty in the away stand. They said hospitality was sold out but the upper tier was half empty. So that’s 5K already. Block 24 had lots of empty seats and behind the goal was spread out. I’d say the crowd looked correct.

I'm not convinced.

Having said that 20000 as home support is decent improvement after the years of sisu having to play in Northampton and Birmingham it take time to build up regular support I’d say ours is 17000ish, yesterdays result doesn’t help to attract others to become hardcore but indicates potential is there, I’m sure if we were in Sheffield Uniteds’ position our hardcore would increase.

Every time I buy tickets I struggle to get seats together in blocks 14-18……
Every time we show up in those blocks, usually split up by a row or whatever , there are empty seats close by us.
