Attendance for Saturday?

Re: Attendance for Saturday?

Me and my boy missing this as in Canada but getting up at 5 am to watch on Cardiff city TV - however watched 6 or so games on the club TV never seen us win once so apologies in advance.

5am this morning? How’d we get on?

Had a quick look and sales seem pretty decent. Canton Stand sold out and middle 3 blocks of the Ninian nearly sold out.

I think estimates are Peterborough will bring 1,000 so could be looking at ~19k. Maybe shift a few more if the weather is decent.

Officially 19,615

I think that’s a good turn out.

Similar to what we had v Wycombe opening day last time we landed in this league, 2002/3 was it? I thought we were massive but then reality sunk in….be down to 10,000 come winter, which is still remarkable considering what the fans have to put up with

It'll depend on results. City winning will see people in the ground especially after Christmas if there's a sniff of success.

If City struggle crowds could be similar to midweek games from the last few seasons.

I'll add City have managed to maintain a larger amount of regular supporters than in the last 10 years than in previous decades.

I do wonder if a few seasons in League One would reduce that mind.

City's support for me has always been fickle.

That will be this thread’s creator, Canton Kev.

I have already done a bit of digging on this and the Canton, in Canton Kev actually refers to the Guangdong Province in Southern China.

The financial backing behind the fourth consortium is with the Alibaba group, in particular the CEO Joseph Tsai, a Taiwanese-Canadian billionaire that apparently owns the Brooklyn Nets basketball team. Worth about eleven billion US dollars, so I’d say he was absolutely caked.

The Alibaba group also owns Guangzhou Football Club in Guangdong Province (Canton) and there’s likely to be a partnership type arrangement with them, I.e. loaning of players/increasing exposure in China etc. I know for a FACT that Cardiff have already been invited to play in next year’s Guangdon-Hong Kong cup - as part of our pre-season programme - where Guangzhou FC will also play.

All they’re waiting for is the sign-off from Tan, then they will immediately sack Darren Purse!

Season ticket sales are apparently higher than the first game last season according to Corky which are over 13,000.

Looks like ticket sales for Port Vale are over 2,500 looking at the ticket sales on the website

Re: Attendance for Saturday?

We had the highest attendance in the division yesterday. 11 more than Bradford.

That massive club out west somehow only sold 10,000? Even with 200 billion followers on Twitter…..
