People say they cant make it for various reasons but I bet if this was a midweek league game we would still get 45k+.
I think some sesoncard holders just can't be arsed getting cup tickets.
Hopefully things will pickup over the weekend or it could be embarassing

Marketing ploy or not? The seat planner is showing shit loads of tickets still available in both tiers of the North Stand, but virtually all other areas of the first and second tiers are showing as sold out or very limited availability. I don't know what's going on with the third tier because earlier in the week there were loads of available seats in there too, particularly going towards the back of the stand where there were whole rows of seats showing as available, but now the thrid tier isn't available on the seat planner. I can't see how that many could've been shifted in the last couple of days but you never know.

It's plain to see the club are bluffing, if your selling a product with a short space of time left to sell it in the obvious thing to do is claim it's close to a sell out thus urging people to buy ASAP.

I cant see the club deterring fans from trying to get tickets by lying about it being close to a sell out.Having said that there are thousands of tickets available for the family stand.
