thegaffer Posted 22 November, 2010 Share Posted 22 November, 2010 Got 2 tickets at 2:30 this afternoon and was told only single seats in Kingsland available and 23,000 sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Window Cleaner Posted 22 November, 2010 Share Posted 22 November, 2010 Posts 51 and 52 seem to be contradictory then. Now from my experience the "I asked the girl how many had been sold and she told me....." posts always tend to be at least 1000 over the odds for even the final crowd numbers. So I'd say that we'll probably get a maximum of 25K tomorrow and for a Tuesday game at the end of November that's a good score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suewhistle Posted 22 November, 2010 Share Posted 22 November, 2010 So I'd say that we'll probably get a maximum of 25K tomorrow and for a Tuesday game at the end of November that's a good score. Probably about right unless loads go down there tonight after work or there is a big walk up and you all big the game up to your mates. For a Tuesday game in November in the Third Division it a ***** good score. I reckon it'll be a bit over 25k though, or maybe I'm just an optimist..

scotty Posted 22 November, 2010 Share Posted 22 November, 2010 I can actually go tomorrow night, got the evening off, , can I get a ticket in the westquay shop like Ron Manager mentioned recently or is it best to go to the stadium for it?

CFSFC Posted 22 November, 2010 Share Posted 22 November, 2010 25000 would be fantastic for this division but i often wonder where the missing 7k are that attended boring mid table clashes in the premiership. The buzz for this game is much more exciting than i had for bolton/boro at home and we sold them out and extra for their unsold allocation. How many sold for Hartlepool that will be a trip...

The season we got relegated from the premiership we didn't sell out even games this time of season. This 7000 you mention have long gone but in reality now we have a hardcore of 18000 or so. this figure is not based on average attendance but a general one based on where we are now win or lose.

Rubbish! The games "this time of the season" from 2004/05... Saints vs Portsmouth 13th November 2004 = 30,921 Saints vs Crystal Palace 27th November 2004 = 31,833 Every season at St Mary's in the Premier League Saints averaged over 30k, including the relegation season.

Berkshire Saint Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 Just looked it up. Crowds were around the 27,000 mark for games against Blackburn, Birmingham and Fulham. 28,000 v Man City and 29,000 v Middlesbrough. Think all of those bar the Boro game were on TV to be fair and bar Man City those sides usually brought pretty low away numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceandfriendly Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 i often wonder where the missing 7k are that attended boring mid table clashes in the premiership When in the Prem at SMS we had a lot of "football fans" who went to games just for the fun of watching Premiership football.

I know of two guys who've never went since we left the prem, they're actually Cardiff and Spurs fans but wanted to see the prem games. Period. The fact that it was Saints was irrelevant to them.

The buzz for this game is much more exciting than i had for bolton/boro at home and we sold them out and extra for their unsold allocation... I agree with you, although I reckon it'll be nearer 27k come kick-off, but I think we beat ourselves up a bit too easily over the "missing 7k" or so. There's very few clubs that wouldn't see a dramatic dip in attendances dropping a couple of divisions out of the Prem. Leeds and Sheff Wed were capable of over 40k in the Prem but have had league crowds under 15k in this division. To put it in perspective, Wednesday recently played Huddersfield in a 'local derby' at Hillsborough and got a crowd of 20k, including between 4 and 5,000 Hudders fans who made the 30 mile trip. The same night we played Dagenham & Redbridge, got an almost identical crowd including just a couple of hundred Daggers. Tonight we'll play a 'local-ish derby' and get 26,000-plus - not bad for the third division! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rolosfc Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 I bought 2 tickets in the West Quay store on Sat morning for tonights game, not sure on the match day policy though. On another note I was not asked to prove my customer number and did not pay by card, therefore the club will have no proof that I am on the database (which I am) even though the assistant in the West Quay store had a huge sign in front of her saying "Brighton tickets only on sale to database!"
