Re: 23.500 tickets sold for Friday against Wolves
Under 800 tickets now available in main bowl. Upper Ninian now made available with most seats in lower section already sold. Could be heading for 30000+. Allowing for buffer around Wolves fans probably around 27000 now sold.

Big if, but if we sell out upper tier then surely we don't need a buffer zone. Didn't have one against Swansea in Premier league.

Looking at the online plan, I think that they have left a half block gap on either side, which is about 1000 seats. I believe that is what they left for Man City when the attendance was 32339 out of a capacity of 33280.

There's another 5 blocks in the upper Ninian gone on sale today. Blocks nearest away fans not on sale though. Last to go on sale, if needed.

Trying to get 4 more, but the phone lines are full.
Put me into queue place 11 !!
Mobile bill of about £20 if I wait.
Will try again later

This was my point the other week. The club complain about lower attendances yet they really do limit how you can buy them.
For example, the casual fan in Cardiff for the day would have no chance unless they fancy braving the ticket office on a match day.
There are zero ticket outlets in the entire City Centre ffs!!
Put one at Central Station / St David's Hall / Queen Street / Cardiff Bay and this would be sorted.

Could sell them in places like JD sports/sports direct. Cardiff central train station is also a good shout.
People inn llantrisant area could easily get tickets in sports direct, same as other towns around South Wales.

Looks like there's only 3 blocks in the upper Ninian (may be 4 unless it's sold out) yet to go on sale. Should hit 30k attendance easily.

Re: 23.500 tickets sold for Friday against Wolves
I'm down the ticket office right now to renew a load of STs and the queue is about an hour long (or 50 metres for any pedants reading). Most people seem to be coming out with paper tickets which, I'd imagine, will be for the Wolves game.

Yeah I've thought this for ages too, a small concessions stand in the middle of st David's shopping centre would be a great start.
I've seen in other cities, upcoming fixtures advertised on buses etc
Or there are big screens in town these days like the one on the Hayes, let's get upcoming games on there and a place you can buy tickets nearby.
I reckon plenty of people who have moved here to work or study might start to come along if we were a bit more prominent.
