[SlowerThanPlatt]

Biggest crowd of season now expected great stuff, what was it vs fotest 21500 4k forest?

Clever wording, biggest home crowd which was just over 17,000 against Forest

I’m going to hold out till 5 before I have a beer. Best not to peak early

Yes he is as he won't have a bad word said about the place even though MR himself said the pitch was shit and we weren't made to feel welcome before.

It's much better now so peoples opinions have changed. Funny that.

Who mentioned the pitch? Yes the pitch was shit. Concourses badly laid out.
However you’re correct in assuming that I like the ground overall.

That's fine.

Just like it's fine for someone to say it was soulless before (because it often was) but has a good atmosphere at the moment.

 

[Liquid Gold]

45, 15 and 16 sold out now with only 3 in 17

Work should just let me go before a game, I don't get anything done

 

[shmmeee]

Problem is the hypothesis has always been put as its soulless because it’s the Ricoh, and nothing to do with what’s happening on the pitch. Which this season seems to have well and truly falsified.

Yeah it has been falsified this season.

I'm taking umbrage at the suggestion that it was clear all along when I don't think it was.

At least we now know if the atmosphere goes back to the soulless nothing that was so often the case in years past we only have ourselves to blame.

That's true.
And beyond sheer nostalgia, HR was not always the cauldron of noise that some think.

 

[Perryccfc]

Now picking my son up from school, told them he has an appointment to get him out early, then the long drive over, absolutely buzzing already. Comonn you sky blue bastards

 

[Liquid Gold]

It wasn't

Still, give me HR, Fratton park, Goodison Park over The CBS, The King Power, The SoL any day.

Where is the long drive over from?

 

[Deleted member 2477]

Why anyone would want to go to this soulless ground is beyond me

Why anyone would want to comment on a ccfc forum when they clearly arnt a fan or supporter is beyond me

 

[Perryccfc]

Where is the long drive over from?

Lowestoft, Eastern point of East Anglia

Broken Hearted Sky Blue - mate - if we win tonight and go top -could be time for a name change something like.... 'Formerly Broken Hearted Sky Blue.'

We're on the way back up!

I think the article says what it means biggest home crowd of the season

As in largest amount of home supporters and not crowd?

 

[win9nut]

2 seats left in block 16, block 14 and 15 completely sold out.

I remember when I used to have about 4 rows to myself in 15

Where were they when we were shit?

 

[Liquid Gold]

"boycotting"

Home supporters , I'm going hopefully about 19500 there tonight including away

I'd be really happy with that.

Now the challenge is to not do what we normally do in front of a big crowd and fall apart. Play the same as we have been and put them to the sword so we can try and convince this lot it's worth coming back.

Il be honest though , looking at the seating and with potential walk up , I reckon there's every chance we could hit 21000 all in .. they are still selling well now

 

[Evo1883]

Pay on the gate will literally all be in the Telegraph

 

[Evo1883]

Even the posh side is nearly sold out

 

[Evo1883]

Somebody just said there's already a decent queue at the ticket office

Good walk up could see well over 20k

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Just getting season tickets

 

[jordan210]

Good walk up could see well over 20k

How many do we normally get as a walk up few hundred ?

 

[Evo1883]

Well historically we've always had a couple thousand .. which makes sense with historically lower season tickets

 

[COV]

Been absolutely rocking this year to be fair

Fans make atmospheres, not stadiums, and right now our fans are up there with the best

 

[jordan210]

Hopefully a healthy walk up tonight. Get us in the 20's
