    Funny that because nowadays the club regularly gets accused of the exact opposite i.e. exaggerating the attendance upwards. For the Hereford game you mention, I remember the ground was pretty empty until about 10 miniutes before kick off and the match was in the old division three, so getting over 35000 was a major thing at that level. Citys average that season was only 11700.

    Might we have a breakdown of the percentage of your posts which are not the result of swallowing a CCF records book/website?

    it all comes down to disposable income for me. If prices were lower more people would go, supply and demand.

    Also in the days of terracing people could pick their games and stand by their mates, now that is no longer an option.

    Id say in 10 years it will be free to go to a game, the short fall made up by PPV tv subscriptions for your own club games. The need to protect 3pm kick offs by not having them on live TV has been reduced by the massive percentage TV revenue is now to a clubs total income.

    The capacity of NP with the old wooden Grange End was 56,000. After the new Grange End was built and before the enclosures and Bob bank had seats (so for all of the 1980s) it was 41,000. Eventually going down to 21,000 by the time the ground was demolished.

    It was just a bye-the-bye observation. I'm not old enough to remember City playing Hereford.

    Actually, I find your posts to be among the most humourous on here....

    The price of tickets is the issue when it comes to attendances. Its pointless comparing to other clubs. We need lower prices. You can see the difference when St holders can bring friends cheaply.

    The Bob bank seats were put in my mad rick wright in 1992

    Pity that I cant say the same about yours.

    Re: 25-26k

    Only one thing to say, I have just been checking the online ticketing, going all around the ground checking each section, and there are not that many seats left, it will not be far short of a sellout allowing for the segregated area

    They should put them on general sale ASAP. And make people aware on social media

    For what it's worth, I've just bought the last side by side pair available in the Ninian (5 mins on eticketing). There were maybe 100 singles left across the Ninian. The corner with the Canton is 50% empty

    Thats interesting as e-ticketing shows me two rows at the front with lots of tickets side by side in Ninian block 112/111 and only 6 seats left in total for the Ninian/Canton corner.

    I've long suspected it was a load of bollocks and this supports that I think.

    Dont understand what the club could possibly gain from showing seats as sold that arent or vice versa ?.

    Nor me. Just reporting the difference between what Des has noted and what I'm being shown.

    This game is heading for a sell out. There are under 400 seats left in the upper ninian (including lower section) and looking around the bowl, I would estimate less than 1500 elsewhere, mostly singles.

    Re: 25-26k

    It was quoted elsewhere there were 6,000 left.

    Haven't we gone through this before? A massive build up to certain games, then finding attendances were far out. I still believe there will be 5-6k short of a sell-out. 11k tickets sold since friday lunch time? I doubt it.
