Saturdays gate… (1 Viewer)

Spot on. They'd spend money reconfiguring the away end both inside and possibly outside the stadium.

No need to, it was designed to be split, there are separate turnstiles and concourse segregation already in place.

Thinking about capacity could the club not configure the nets and stewards so City fans were in effect in the away end but without access to the stairs into the concourse that would be totally borded up? I am sure the SAG might have reservations!

Only just seen the Blackburn attendance. That's shit considering the position they are in. What a poor fanbase.

Not what the club said the other week

They definitely have means of segregation, I've seen the concourse blocked off at 17 or something for low attendance cup games.

They’ve managed it before against Crewe. And if my memory serves me right against Gillingham in 2014

Gillingham homecoming game. Home fans behind the goal with away fans over in the corner.
Regardless of what the club say, it can, and already has been done.

They have shutters in the away, under block 9/10.

Imagine telling someone we'd be having this conversation just 6 years on from Carlisle at home in front of 6k in 2017

That's the dream. Imagine Block 16 all the way round to block 10 being a vocal section.

Dont mention Northampton!

I was one of the fans behind the goal that night, it is split, there is built in segregation in the concourse.

Got to be looking to open 31 now and extend the family zone abit more.

 

[Gint11]

What’s the latest numbers?

 

[Bugsy]

Not sure about numbers, but it's the most I've seen sold so far this season.... PUSB

This is what's left

Thank you. after the game today I’ll go back and ask why we were told what we were told

 

[Gint11]

Great effort SBA

 

[Gint11]

If we win today we reckon brum game going to be a sell out?

Wasps took the segregation gates out and sold them to Milver metals.

Looks not far off already

 

[CovInEssex]

What about corporate? Isn't there capacity for more fans there? Especially along the top tier as it's always half full?

I'm not saying they should open seats up there for general sale but how can we have a full house if there's empty seats over there

That top tier is about 1k seat’s according to that graphic that was posted earlier

Yep and it will be frustrating that we sold 4500 to Birmingham so early. That could have been the opportunity to give them 1500 and fill both stands behind the goal. Block 13 and social distancing block will need to be scrapped.

Ultimately, if we lose today, selling Birmingham the tickets isn't an issue.

There's a lot of issues with the hotel rooms. Something would need to be sorted quickly should we ever have the demand to fill the ground. Even with Legends day, there were loads of empty boxes and seats in the top tier.

You can’t have the proles in with the prawn sandwich brigade - ffs what next

Is there a reserved block for pay on the day?

agree completely. From a commercial perspective though at the time it makes sense to sell tickets they can rather than hope they do with us. Now there might be something riding on it, we will sell them.

Social distancing block would be scrapped today if they needed to, it's was always pretty pointless. A bigger than expected walk-up and they'd have to. No way they would shut people out and leave a block mostly empty (you'd think).

Yeah the corner 25/26 I think

 

[shmmeee]

Another ten rows open in the family zone. Just the back four rows of elsewhere with more than singles now.

Are you as excited as you sound?

Taking my mind off the match by counting dots. Worryingly I did that at Stoke too. Just want a decent performance in front of a big crowd for once. What will be will be on the promotion front.

 

[theferret]

NS will be effectively sold out in next 2 hours, so will only be POTG blocks left (excluding the SD block). I think pretty much every available seat will be sold today. That said I'm sure there will be empty seats in the main stand as usual, not sure why this happens, ST holders not turning up will explain a few but the club must be holding seats back in there.
