Who really gives a fuck about social media mate?
As for our support in Div 2 we averaged 28500 and last night there was 43,500.
I honestly don't give a toss what the rags etc and media say about empty seats...I'm in all the cup schemes but then again I don't have family commitments and I live locally so it's easier for me to get to the cup games.
Not all our fans are able to get to night games due possibly to work or family commitments or even lack of finance.
Yeah it would be great if we sold out every game but whether ground is full or not it doesn't impact on our results.
If the rags etc mention empty seats just laugh at them and ask for they go to the swamp...most seat counters don't go to games.
That got me when we played Arsenal in the semis last year at Wembley arrogant bastard's coming on, I won't bother getting a ticket for the semis I'll wait till we get to the final.I don't get it. We get many on this site saying "build it and they will come" when talking about expanding the ground, yet the club have done just that and only 35000 blues bother turning up for the semi final last night. Yes, we're in every competition and the next home game is in 2 weeks time, but the club couldn't have priced it any better last night. These same "hard up" fans will find the cash for a day out to Wembley if we get there, guaranteed. The club should give ticket priority for any final for those in the cup scheme and those fans, whether season ticket holders or not, that have attended league cup fixtures this season.
I agree wholeheartedly with this.The club should give ticket priority for any final for those in the cup scheme and those fans, whether season ticket holders or not, that have attended league cup fixtures this season.

If you don't do the rounds, get to the back of the queue for the final
Should do the same for the FA Cup and the Champs League
Crowds are growing but unlike Liverpool and the Rags we don't have millions of plastic fanboys from across the world (and Essex) to take up the slack when we have had three home games in a week.
As I said though, I'd do it for all Cup compsTo be fair - I think anyone wanting to go to Wembley would get a ticket easy enough for a league cup final.
On the flip side to those saying 43,000 isn't a good crowd for a League Cup semi,
Interestingly our 10th best League Cup crowd ever! Nevertheless we can and should be selling more for games like this
