I thought all clubs always do it on ticket sales that's why it can be a sell out with empty seats if s/c holders don't attend.Cheers mate. I bet that's very close.
I suppose that the club could actually publish the official attendance now with it being based on tickets sold and not bums on seats?
I don't think it would go down too well with the PL though!
We will still be selling some corporate seats

They do mate, it's a PL requirement. In theory we could announce tomorrow's attendance today now it's sold out.
Then why isn't the attendance figure for every sold out game the same?
If they don't behave they will !Will the gaps around the giant posters be filled in?
Really random was just watching the Southampton game and they have got some fancy pattern on the pitch and just got talking about pitches ,didn't city have a phase of fancy designs ? They just seem to keep it simple these days wonder if there is a reason ?
3,058 ticketsDoes anyone know how many tickets Chelsea have taken for tomorrows game?
The crowd will be 53,711
Close but................53,593..............
I wonder what would have been announced if Swalesy was still with us.?
Will the gaps around the giant posters be filled in?
If the ground staff keep the basic mowing pattern of horizontal and vertical stripes 6 yards wide you can use them to work out the pitch size accurately. For example, two 'dark' stripes with one 'light' one in the middle = 18 yards from the goal-line to the edge of the penalty area. Same width, with the line between 'dark' and 'light' striping passing through the penalty spots (and obviously the centre spot) confirms the goal areas are 20 yards wide and the penalty areas 40 yards wide. You don't get that with crappy 'tartan' patterns like Southampton used yesterday.It all depends on the angle you are to the pitch as to what pattern/lines you see.
3,058 tickets
It's going to a special day. Always nice when the away fans take up a full allocation. Hopefully they bring their voices. It's going to be fairly unique for away fans to be spaced out on three levels. Let's hope starting from today, we see an improved atmosphere. Everyone attending has their part to play. If the players get it right on the pitch, I'm sure we are in for an action packed game. Come on City, don't let us down! #CTID
You're forgetting to factor in all those empty seats!Between the original singing "area" in 116-119, the new 1894 blocks, the new third tier and a full away allocation, it's going to be one hell of a noisy end
