Birmingham attendance (5 Viewers)

[Nick]

I think its safe to say King is ripping Boddy a new arsehole and telling him to do his job and get everything sorted to get the extra capacity

Based on what? You're obsessed

Avoid it by going to the club sire on your own browser rather than clicking the link

I don't need tickets, I was trying to check high blocks the seat were in.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Ohh where are the extra thousand?

 

[Evo1883]

If they release block 13 that will take it above 30k

 

[rob9872]

Just went on the site to see how many points I currently have and it said estimated wait time to access eticketing was 1 min and there 82 people in front of me in the queue! I assume those extra 1000 will snapped up in no time at all.

 

[Grendel]

Well based on the what Pete is implying about King shaking things around and not accepting no for an answer. There is no way extra seats would be available with the prior regime. You do I assume accept I am not the only one on this thread that has blamed Boddy and laughed at his incompetence?

 

[shmmeee]

*banging the table*
THIR-TEEN
THIR-TEEN

THIR-TEEN

 

[MAFF]

They've all gone.

 

[Evo1883]

They've all gone.

Wow

 

[bigfatronssba]

Sold 1k tickets in 15 mins

 

[100 miles from Cov.]

All gone. Surely they must open 13. With the segregation it’s a long way to the brum fans.

 

[SuperFred]

Have to assume they were testing the waters to see how quickly they would sell before committing to block 13. Absolutely no reason why they can't open it if they've sold the blocks on the other side of the away end

It wouldn't make sense to sell block 5 but not 13. Block 5 is closer to the away fans than 13.

I think they are doing it gradually to try and add to the excitement

While Block 13 had been included in discussions, however instead releasing Blocks 4 and 5 release more tickets.

Block 12 cannot be used – this is required for segregation and is part of the South Stand area. While in the past the South Stand concourse has been split, this was against Clubs with considerably smaller attendances and without the same factors involved in the fixture and without the necessity for comparable segregation and safety operations. (E.g. Gillingham bringing 495 in 2014 when part of the South Stand was used for home fans, or Crewe Alexandra bringing 1472 for the JPT Area Final)

Due to the limited availability, charity vouchers and Sky Blues in the Community vouchers are not redeemable.

The Club has thoroughly explored all possible avenues to open up any other areas with the Arena, and it is not possible to do so for safety and access reasons.

Therefore, once these tickets are sold the game will be sold-out - there will be no availability on the day.

Just bought one on the front row in block E. Will give my season ticket up for the mrs so she can sit with my dad and daughter and I'll be right behind Robbo to let him know what he's doing wrong and who he should bring on and when. If there are any messages from the forum, please post them up and I'll be sure to pass them on

Makes it sound like it was a choice between 13 and 4/5

Can we have your mobile number as there is no WiFi in the stadium?

 

[rob9872]

I'll put it on the scoreboard so we can vote for subs

 

[SuperFred]

Don't forget some people were saying we wouldn't sell out a play off semi final ffs

 

[Evo1883]

So 29500 it is then

So block 13 can't be used AS WELL AS the 2 entire blocks of segregation. Pathetic.

If you're a safety advisory group and your solution is to close down blocks rather than police it competently, then you're admitting you've failed at your job.

No other club in the land has this.

I think it is safe to say this will be resolved next season.

 

[Tommo1993]

God help the team if we go a goal down…

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

So it will still be the biggest attendance for a league game, beating Leeds in 2010.

Biggest amount of home supporters by some way as you'd imagine most of those were 6k away fans

For some reason the Gillingham return game isn't on there. I think the gate that night was stated as 27k with 500 ish away.

 

[mmttww]

I don’t think we would

Wonder what the chances are of kick off being delayed due to crowd congestion like that night

 

[stgeorge1966]

That's all folks, the safety group but the block on opening Block 13

 

[Boosh]

I’ll save you the trouble of persisting with these. I wasn’t born in the 90s so I have no idea what they are

Hospitality tickets still available so might just make 30k

 

[pusbccfc]

Were any tickets released in Block 14?
