Why are actual figures not available? Surely the safety officer has them.Airman Brown said:
I'm guessing they are, because that's the language routinely used. The official attendance for the Sheffield Wednesday game in August 2021 - the first home game fans could attend for 18 months and the first they could attend since TS took over - had an official crowd of 17,639 (and an actual that will have been more like 15,000). There were 10,000 STs and a great deal more interest in that game than this one, as I recall.AFKABartram said:
I’m struggling to believe this tbh, though I accept they wouldn’t lie about it. Just surprised it’s outsold the games v Ipswich, Sheff W and Derby last year (and Brighton), given what the stadium plan shows when you strip out closed blocks and those allocated as freebies. They’re making a point of saying SOLD so I’m guessing they aren’t including the compsNabySarr said:More home tickets sold than any home game last season.

You'll never fit 309,023 in, it only holds 27,000 odd!1

14 blocks showing red, quite a few more probably not far off doing the same, the covered end looking like it could be completely full by kick off,and enough seats still available for anyone that still fancies going to the game to be able to do so. A pretty impressive start to ‘the new era’ and a packed away end. It’s going to be noisy1

i disagree - i've just had a look at the season ticket sales and even accepting the less popular areas will have a few areas chunked out for feebies, i think we have sold a lot lot more since the takeover - if there was 6.5k sold before it then i'd say we've sold 10k+ now - home areas are looking well over half full and other than the areas at the away ends of the east and west, it will feel pretty full today i reckon - COYR!!!Covered End said:Well I looked at all the home areas yesterday evening and estimated that we hadn't sold half the home seats.
Yes a couple of the most popular blocks had limited availability, but many of the least popular blocks were only about 20% sold.
The announced attendance may well depend on complementaries.0 -
Does feel like there’s been some pretty good sales in the last couple of days, really encouraging1

the first home game against sheff wed, despite the sandgaard fanfare and the post covid thing, people weren't impressed by our transfer dealings - despite some on here trying to put a downer on the new ownership, most people i speak to look at the players let go, the signings made and the signings still to be made - there is genuine optimism and that is reflected in the sales i'd sayAirman Brown said:

Gutted can’t attend today. Buying a season ticket I knew I wouldnt be able attend all 23 but feels like a new era starts today. Don’t care how we get the 3 points. Got a feeling it’s going to be a 1-0 win with the fans getting us across the line.

Even more gutted to be missing this one if it is going to be a packed out Covered End, my three will be watching online from abroad but back for the Port Vale match when we hopefully have 9pts on the board.0
