If we played Birmingham in the cup at the Ricoh we wouldn’t get anywhere near another 10,000 and total attendance would be around 14,000
No abuse from me - I hope you enjoy it enough to return for some league games.I’m going for my 1st game at St Andrews, been to quite a few away, bring on the abuse ....
The average ticket prices were around £12 and and we had a lot of deal games to inflate the crowd. Basically we did the Wasps strategy
We were averaging 14,000 at highfield road in the championship and at the Ricoh after the new stadium effect it as heading that way again even with subsided tickets
Completely wrong- you’re saying that a division above, better opposition, better football, pushing to get promoted there are only 2,000 floating fans to go after, weird thinking.12000 home fans plus away fans yep that’s what I think.
I find that very hard to believe I think double is sensible
Last season we averaged 12k and prices were ‘normal’. The last season in the Championship, the average gate was over 15k. That was in a season, where by comment consent, performances were very poor. In a successful season, inevitably, average attendances rise. Why wouldn’t ours for this season?The average ticket prices were around £12 and and we had a lot of deal games to inflate the crowd.

T09 open now.T10 now sold out (odd single seats only) -
Next block should be on soon behind the goal - expect these next blocks to sell even faster!!
Must be Birmingham fans as It’s been made clear to me that we don’t have enough supporters to sell this many ticketsT09 open now.

It's in the wording I'd guess. most aren't actually boycotting as such, but that actually makes it worse, as SISU / Wasps etc. have created the conditions to mean they aren't going to games!Is it really so hard to agree with this? We get 5,500 or so at St Andrews and it’s not unreasonable to assume we’d get 15k or so in Cov playing how we are and where we are in the league?

Interested to know what makes you feel like attending the 4th round cup over any league games ?Three of us also jumping on the bandwagon for our first match at St Andrews.
However, I have done MK Dons away in the Leasing.com trophy this season so I refuse to be classed as a glory supporter!

Don’t get how people refuse to go in the league but the FA CUP is totally fine ? WeirdIt’s the epitome of the stupid embarrassing groundshare situation. Not sure why people are using this as their first game either.
Why do you have to be refusing?Don’t get how people refuse to go in the league but the FA CUP is totally fine ? Weird
I'm a weak man.He was at the Leasing game against MK as well, he's a cup slut!!

It’s not so much the competition, it’s the opponents.

I’m hoping that we don’t do what we normally do in these situations when we get a large crowd at home - blow it & get beaten!
My hope is we continue to play the slick & flowing passing game that’s got us so far this season and the fans that make it over for this game press the repeat button and come again for some league games.
12362 with the community game.11709 if you don’t count it. I would have thought that greater away followings was one of the perks of being in the Championship. It will be the same for all clubs.
Spot on. We’ve not had any kind of sustained success on the pitch for decades- get that right and the crowds will balloon, you can’t plan for bigger crowds, you win matches and that takes care of itself.to be honest all this arguing about what attendances we will/will not get is irrelevant.
What we need to do going forward is grow the club. On field, in my opinion, SISU have a strategy for doing that, off the field they don't.
Throw in other entities working against the club and it's a worry.
We are the kind of club when you can get 11,000 one week and 27,000 the next- the crowds will just match the consistency on the pitch. Doesn’t help that every time we had very big crowds we blew it either.12362 with the community game.11709 if you don’t count it.
