You counted 12000 dots?! How much time do you have spare?!
I'm not counting dots, sod that! But this is block 17 with just ST holders, this block is now almost full and this is repeated in many other blocks. Could be wrong though, it wouldn't be the first time.

WaghornLeghorn off the mark 1st game, Fadz barking orders from his zimmer frame, and Sheaf/O'Hare like Jack Russells on heat.

Indeed!
Not sure about this one at all but our luck has surely got to change against this mob. Still haven't gotten over that donkey Campbell hatrick against us on the opening day in the mid 90s - was grumpy for years over that one.
To make matters worse I've got a Forest supporting mate who's still pissing himself after stealing 6 points off us last season - so a 93rd minute penalty after their defence pushes one of our lads over in the box will do nicely.

I dunno, I just had a look and as I'm off work I had a closer look- I can't see any way there are more than 12k sold plus away fans
behind the goal- can't be any more than 1,000 sold from 6,000

28,000 is a tad optimistic I think

He has O’Hare down to score, I don’t think realism is his bag
Might sound weird but I kind of don't want him to score too many, if he added that to his game he's gone in January... leave the scoring to the attackers. O'Hare for me is our most important player by some way

I tried to do this but my head started hurting.. I don't think there's even 12k yet, but then I gave up at block 34

I've gone 21k, that is optimistic having had a look. Its Wednesday now, unless there is one hell of a walkup, the likes of which the CBS has rarely if ever seen before, its going to be under 20k

We won’t get 20k
Covid,it’s on sky a lot have access to watching games being steamed and the cost of £30 per adult etc a long with nearly £6 a pint
I won't be paying £6 for a pint, that is for sure. No idea what role the club have in setting these prices, but while I don't care about paper tickets, signage and away kits, I'm not gonna pay that much, no chance.

Although I'm hoping for another body (or even two) in the door before the match. as things stand even though we've not had a great pre-season, disrupted with Covid etc, we're not alone in that.
Always a bit wary of us getting a decent size crowd as we tend to not do too well but I'm going to go for a nervy win, 2-1.
Wilson, Dacosta, Drysdale, Allen/Shipley, Enobakhare, Jones, Walker
Jack Burroughs possibly in place of Allen/Shipley
Oh, and game to be delayed due to ticketing issues/fans being unable to get into the ground for kick off. I'm sure the club will issue a 'get here early' message but there'll be a huge surge 10-15mins before KO.

You're looking at it the wrong way round. The difference between the ground plan showing just ST holders and sales for Sunday shows way more than 2K have gone, by a mile.
Think of it the other way around, if only 12K are sold, then from the 26K available on 3 sides of the ground to home fans, you've got to identify 14000 empty seats. Good luck with that!

Just compare Northampton with Forest and you get a decent feel. Anyway, don't forget there are 1500 or so corporate seats whose dots you can't count
.The crowd will be decent, but will be bettered many times this season. As soon as it was selected for TV it killed it.
It'll be a great occasion regardless, and the attendance will be what it is.

There’s no way it will be delayed. Two reasons. One, it’s live on sky and they don’t do late kick offs. Two. Sunderland aren’t playing and won’t be relegated.

The Gillingham game on our last homecoming was live on Sky too!Just compare Northampton with Forest and you get a decent feel. Anyway, don't forget there are 1500 or so corporate seats whose dots you can't count

Indeed it was, but it was a Friday night and was only a tenner. Plus the homecoming element just seemed more significant and it all occurred after the season had started and it was all very sudden and it just had that momentum.
Look at it another way though, we may have sold out for that game, but only ended up with 4.5K season ticket holders that season which led to some desperately poor gates for the rest of that campaign, so completely different this time on that front at least.
