Not bad going given a bit of a bore draw to say the least.

I am actually excited about this match. We win and we are in the bag for the next round and the possibility of an attractive draw.

Good stuff. Well done to the club.

I hope/expect we'll flog another couple thousand before the game as well, especially with a win tomorrow.

27,218 to be precise...

Transport for that day will be interesting, with everyone having to pay and only two park and rides sites operating (no Racehill P&R) that day and £4 per adult for the other two which HAVE to be purchased in advance. I am hoping for good weather so that I can walk over Falmer Road.

Good to hear as it vindicates the clubs decision to make the tickets so affordable. Also, most all Championship ties would attract sub 10,000 crowds so confirms how well supported we still are at the Amex.

The day before we return home to Spain......looking forward so much to a rare visit & what a bargain for us 'seniors'.

I can see it getting very heated on Saturday when only 1 in 10 punters turn up with a £4 ticket to get on the P&R buses.

Their allocation apparently has sold out, not sure what the allocation was though.

Cannot find anything on their official website , not surprising though because they use the same crappy template as us.

So probably same bums on seats as Bournemouth game...

Just a touch overly cynical no?
My guess is that an average 10% to 15% of season ticket holders are no-shows at any given match (that's the figure I was quoted on an Amex tour) and with Bournemouth being touted as 30K sold the actual bums on seats is likely to be around 26000 minimum.
