Thread: Huge day of sport in the capital city with the rugby and football. Be interesting to see the crowds

  1. #1

    Huge day of sport in the capital city with the rugby and football. Be interesting to see the crowds

    With Cardiff blues Home in a European semi final, and the city Home later in a huge huge game.

    The games don’t clash and ample time to do both if anyone so wished.

    However the blues have been unable to sell out their 12k ground even for this- and while I don’t know about us I wouldn’t have thought it would be much bigger than 20k if at all.

    We shall see though......

    I wasn’t looking for any negative comparisons. Rather pointing out relatively similar disappointments in the expected crowds for both of our teams.

    However let’s hope the good weather today sees the blues sell out and win, and the city get over 20k. 👍

    Just passed a coach load of blues fans, all wearing team shirts, coming from Ammanford.

    Looking at eticketing I’d say there seems to be less than 1000 tickets left. Not sure how may forest have sold but I’d be surprised if we don’t get 23-25,000.

    Some in the corners have been taken off for sale on the day, but another 1/2 a block in the Family Stand has been put on sale.

    Couple of thousand more than the 21k we had for Burton I reckon.

    Should still be a fantastic atmosphere if everyone gets behind the side from the off

    Hopefully the late kick off + decent weather leads to a suitably pi$$ed up crowd

    25k would be great

    Part one of "Super Saturday" is successful, now we need Scarlets and City to do the business

    Cmon City let’s have a 25,000 crowd and make it double win

    F*cking nightmare in the Boro trying to get served when all the rugby crowd came in after their game.
