Ticket sales going very well by the looks of things.
Not a great amount of pairs available (apart from front rows in various blocks)
Be nice to see another of the South Stand blocks released.

Am I the only person that finds this all a bit disturbing.
I'm all for the club trying to attract new fans but this offer of 2 for a tenner seems a bit desperate.This will be our 5 home game of the season having won the previous 4.As it stands we are unbeaten so far this season & are top of the league.
If we cannot attract 25000+ when we are top of the league what sort of crowds will we get if we start struggling.

I don't think it's at all disturbing. Good attempt to sell otherwise unsold seats, help fill the ground and maybe hook a few more into long term support. Our attendances are bloody good anyway, this just improves things further.

Silly old bat
When you look at the other Championship games, the average seems to be around 17K, so having over 21K is good. It's early in the season yet, the weather has still been decent.
It isn't two for a tenner, but two tickets at a tenner each.

Last season we stayed up by the skin of our teeth & we still averaged over 25000.
So far this season we haven't had a crowd of 25k even though we are top of the league.
I understand that football is not cheap & tickets at the Amex are amongst the.most costly in the championship.
Had we beaten Walsall in the cup & played Chelsea tonight I suspect that we would have had more than 25000 &
the cost would not have been an issue. Nor would the fact that it is a school night & we would be late home.
We want Tony Bloom to put his hand in his pocket to buy the best players possible knowing full well that the club if running at a substantial loss to give us the best chance of success yet we can't even match the attendances that we had
Last season in a truly forgetful season.

From what I have seen so far I wonder if the official attendances now are 'actual' - anyone know? For example the attendance at the Hull game looked significantly more than similar announced numbers last year. If this is the case any comparisons are a bit meaningless.
STH numbers dropped so more of the crowd made up of Non-STH/POTD punters (who will turn up)

It's fair to say that the official crowd figures announced will be a fairer reflection of the actual crowd because
of the reduction in non attending ST holders.
I have been a ST holder for every season at the Amex & several seasons at withdean.I pay for it by DD & I am willing to bet that my DD per month for a ST is less than most peoples mobile phone bill.Per month.Based on a 52 week season I pay less than £9 per week.

It's ironic that you have floundering on your profile because the North stand is floundering.
It's the smallest stand at the Amex with the reputation as the most vocal yet it is becoming more & more sparse.
Maybe it is just the fact that because it's the smallest stand that empty spaces are more visible
Not sure a 52 week comparison works but get what you mean. I have Sky almost entirely for the sport. Broadband/phone excluded it's more than double the cost of my ST. The ST is great value, but still think casual prices need to drop a bit. Will be interested to see how this tenner offer works out.

If you still renewed your ST after last season, then the chances are that you're the type of fan that will not miss more than 1 or 2 home games all season. Hence, I think that the tickets sold announced 'attendance' is much closer to the actual bums on seats.
