Dolman Block B Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 If we beat Burton on Friday 13th surely the Leeds game on the 21st will see the biggest crowd at Ashton Gate since the finished refurbishment. Both clubs will be top 4/5 and this game will be buzzing. Understand that Leeds have already sold their allocation of 3900, and no doubt those local South West Leeds fans will be chasing tickets in home areas. Would absolutley love it if we could get 27,000, lets be honest we should the way the lads are playing. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Would love it too but can see it being more like 23-24000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Love to see the ground full, or as full as possible, but a full away end adds to the atmosphere very much as well. With three or four thousand seats expected to be empty, I think it might be worth a little promotion to get these filled. What would it take to fill the ground?

Meh Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 On this current showing it is a real chance of 3 points too. Exciting attacking play but their defending is as bad as ours was last season!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Leeds will sell out , but as usual overexcited people , I think they will get 3700 as was given to villa , this seems to be the figure for sell outs with a bit of segration this year , but not sold yet as you say , we get this shit every time , told Villa sold out but 600 short in reality, then bringing Derby 2000 , but really 1500 , but instantly rubbish our attendances, calm down people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topper 123 Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Think Leeds will sell all their allocation and I don't see why it shouldn't be 27 k sell out no need for segregation as away fans have all of end ,easy to police keep them in after game with external gates locked , clear home fans and take away fans from ground easy ! This should make for a good night COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topper 123 Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 I don't see why on small anticipated gates i.e. Burton poss 18k the club don't poach fans for future give tickets to all schools in a catchment area i.e. Every school gets 100 free tickets ( just a figure) and fill the upper section of new stand this helps players with generated atmosphere and possibly brings in repeat support for future fixtures - once you get the bug . Even if kids don't attend nothing lost , they might attend with parents so a win win sinareo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see why they aren't doing this. From a monetary perspective it makes perfect sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolman Block B Posted October 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Well i admit that their allocation is 3900 and not on sell yet BUT they will sell out in hours There is no reason for the club not to push this to the best ever. 26,000 City 2 Leeds 0 Just imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 The one thing the club should do for this game is just get the top tier of the Lansdown on sale from the get go. If it doesn't sell, then it will back their case when it's called for in future, but let's give everyone every option for getting to this game. No excuses!

1960maaan Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Not going to be 27k whatever happens. Segregation sees to that. As for promotions can't see them doing it for a game that will sell well anyway. If we beat Burton and continue the good form, and Leeds fill their allocation (which I'm sure they will) then I think it will be 25+ , but we won't get 27k unless we get a good cuptie where they feel comfortable giving the whole Atyeo away, a game like a Liverpool then we might.

Did anyone else notice there was zero segregation at Huddersfield v Spurs....no empty seats between the two sets of fans whatsoever, just a couple of stewards on the stairs....how can done clubs achieve this whereas we have always seemed to be so determined to keep huge spaces between fans in the past?! .....obviously it's not as big an issue now with the Atyeo Stand being entirely for away fans but am I right in thinking it will never sell out as the front few rows have to be kept empty?!
