Attendance tomorrow night..

[GXCity]

Even with 2nd and 3rd tiers of the east stand and CB stand not on sale, only 7 of the open areas have sold out so we're looking at a really bad attendance. 17,000 to 21,000 is my guess.

7?? I think you will find 6 of those blocks greyed out are for away fans

 

[ForeverCity]

i'll be there :)
can't wait.

New half time draw tickets could be to predict the attendance and if it's correct you get that amount in pounds!

fulham at home last early round home carling cup game and that was a round later with no champions league games to contend with - 24,506

I'll be amazed if we get more than that

23,866 my guess

we will not be alone as usual in this comp at this stage. Villa/Bolton tonight 22,261, Stoke/Spurs 15,023, Wolves 7,749, Blackburn only 7,104 !!!

looking forward to it regardless

I quite enjoy the early rounds of the carling/fa cup.
It doesn't matter how low our attendances, we will always get the 10-15k who will go and see us against anyone, anywhere.
Should be great to see some of the younger talent too.

That's precisely my attitude. It just goades me that it gives the rags ammunition to have a go at us as Manchester's "local team" when we can't fill out our stadium whereas they'll claim they could fill OT out five times over no doubt...

If they come up with that shite just remind them that they have been handing freebies to primary schools for early round CC matches for years.... so have we ... but let's not fall for the 'huge waiting list' crap

the omnly 2 times i have been to the swamp have been as a parent accompanying my sprogs (city fans) on a freebee

The swamp was not anywhere near full on either occasion

(v crystal palace and v the Arse)

Tevez and Balo to start according to Dan Taylor in The Guardian. Woof, looking forward to this. Hope Harry Bunn makes the bench if Dzeko and Kun are rested.

 

[Blue Punter]

25,000 in the ground, 5,000 cards not activated.

Anyone else nervous about their Seasoncards not activating?

Originally told I wasn't on the CC scheme, even though I signed up for it. Asked at the T.O. and on the phone, who assure me I am.

Money's been taken from bank account, but no email confirmation, which I got last week for Napoli.

Like a game of Russian Roulette waiting for that card to activate at the turnstiles.

If we can't muster 28k just from MANCHESTER add to that a few 1000 that WILL put the effort in and travel 100s of miles it is piss poor support, no excuss, if we can't get 28k locals to walk or get a bus it will be a piss take to be honest.

£15 what do folk want free admission or what.
