United Home League Cup Tickets

[BringBackSwales]

I doubt if there were more than 33-35k in the stadium on Sunday. Lots of season card holders who are on the cup schemes will not have bothered turning up. Quite a few missing near me. I don’t think there’ll be anything like as many no shows tomorrow. The stadium should look close to capacity. Might be more no shows in the United end if they put tickets on sale before the first leg, although that will not be as visible when they’re standing

They all blend in together, in black, bless em

5 blocks on NSL2 with mixed amounts of seats have appeared on the seat planner.

Instead of playing cat and mouse greying blocks in and out all the time, why don't the club just put all the seats that are on sale on the planner and leave them on the planner until the sell out or don't?

Anyone know what attendance we expect to have tomorrow? I’ll get a positive spin ready if Pep or anybody wants it but need to know figure ASAP

Unfortunately the seat planner is not a good indicator. But that's our only real source of seats/blocks sold out.

Guessing, Just over 50,000-52,000. Or a worse case scenario, between 47,500 and 50,000.

I think people are totally understanding how many people literally have no money at the end of jan. I have had endless lads asking if they can be paid early as they don’t have any money. Not just one or two but loads. They have not been paid since 23rd of December and that’s a long old run.

2385 online. A limited number have sold in Level 3 this evening.

If there's only 2385 seats left then it's a decent enough crowd. I suspect that if there were seats available in Level 1 and 2 they'd be online now as City would want to sell them first given that they are more visible, and they are more likely to sell. I am going to believe that we're on for about 50k which will be OK if we get that, but Didsbury Dave has a good point that during the time when a lot of seats sold in L1 and L2 'sold' nothing shifted. How confident can we be then that the online sales plan reflects what's left?

I could just reflect what City want to sell but if there were large gaps in L1 and L2 available for sale, surely City would grey out the blocks in L3 and sell the L1 and L2 blocks first? I am going for 49-50k. I think there are likely to be unsold single seats in L1 and L2 that we don't see but nothing significant.

If Pep or anyone else wants a positive spin for when idiots talk about empty seats.... if the crowd is 51k or more it will be the 2nd highest (of 10) LC SF home crowd City have had (inc games v LFC & MUFC). Only the 55k v mufc in 1969-70 is higher and that was when the LC was seen more glamorous by managers than it is now!

It’s the buying criteria which have hampered last minute sales. If the club had opened up sales to any season ticket holder or any purchase history they’d fly out.
