If I catch Elton John sneakily sitting in a home seat, he'll have Blue Eyes by the end of the game.AFKABartram said:
I’m not even sure we’ll get many walk ups this season. When away teams sell out, it normally goes to existing database only, which will happen a lot this season.Kap10 said:Let's say it settles at 12k ST and 3k away that's already 15k. Quite a few tickets already sold, so I think we should be able to break 20,000.
Walk ups on the day will be interesting as we continue to penalise late purchasers.Though it doesn’t seem Charlton have done this since Watford sold out last week…9 -

1) you're also quoting attendances. I'm as much talking about the actual numbers in the ground which anecdotally, if I recall the match seemed very well attended / much more full than matches with similar full attendances so the point about below gates for first game is not reflectedletthegoodtimesroll said:
Orient at home last season was lower than the average for the season so definitely not a higher attendancepaulsturgess said:

Traditionally first game of the season gates are usually a bit ‘below’ what one might expect.LargeAddick said:I’d hope that the crowd will be around 24k for our first home game back in the Championship. I’d personally be disappointed if it were any less after the clamour for tickets for the Wycombe game then Wembley.
A lot of no shows at this time of the year, always has been the case and always will be.
As per usual, there will be a significant difference between tickets sold and actual bums on seats, it depends on which figure the club puts out I guess.
2) it was anyway the highest crowd for the first half of the season ignoring the tourist games V Bham and Wrexham.
3) Orient at home on the first game of 23/24 was the highest crowd of the entire season by a considerable distance and 50% higher than the 2 home matches that followed in August.

So kick off times announced months in advance and people will only decide on the day if they wanna come?Chris_from_Sidcup said:
I think the opposite. I think we'll get quite a few walk ups because it feels like a lot of people will wait and see what time the kick off is (12.30, 3, 5.30 etc) before deciding if they can make it.AFKABartram said:

Plus if we're doing reasonably well, people will naturally want to come.3 -
Maybe we should do a “guess the attendance” competition??0

The two games you mentioned were full of wives, girlfriends, partners, grandparents and grandchildren. There won’t be the same enthusiasm for a bog standard league game however I am expecting at least 20kLargeAddick said:I’d hope that the crowd will be around 24k for our first home game back in the Championship.

Largest crowd for a home opener in at least 16 years. Excellent.5

So I presume that’s 20K plus ?Callumcafc said:Largest crowd for a home opener in at least 16 years. Excellent.0 - Sponsored links:

Why not just say the number+3

So more than this

they must mean matchday tickets are treble, not including season tickets - can't think we've sold 3 times as many including season tickets at this stage - despite all my promotional work0
-
Suggests they don’t think we’ll hit the 2008 figure rather than being bigger than 20090
-
i think we could do with a bit of QA on some of these announcements - i always like to land a few facts on the few palace fans i know when they attempt a bit of gloating - i told them we'd won more play off finals then any other team in the league and they reeled off 4 that they'd won - did i get my facts wrong? i'm sure the club stated this a day or so after we won in May?1
-
I reckon we’ll beat that0

So somewhere between 19,000 and 21,000 sold so far then. Not bad.
Golfie will not be happy having to get up and down from his seat for people leaving early for half time.0 -
22040 is my guess if making predictions1

“Largest crowd in at least 16 years” suggests that it surpasses every count since 2009, including 2015 vs. QPR which saw 19,469 in attendance.DOUCHER said:

What would be the point in them announcing we are set to have a crowd larger than the 16,000 that turned out to see a game in the third division in a random season where the team achieved nothing?7 -

They are comparing to the 2008/09 season it seems, our first relegation season to L1 since the EPL years. The attendance of the first game of that season vs Swansea (a 2 nil win) was 21,675.0

Hope we don't get all the flame, and rockets going off as the players walk out.
Can't stand all that BS.3
