I'd assumed that it was a police request as Brighton is likely to extremely busy on NYE and adding 30,000 football fans to the mix (admittedly much earlier in the day) would be a problem. Would also explain why Newcastle are playing today.

Good point, well made.

Also, the club may well have wanted to play a day earlier to give the players extra recovery time ahead of another game on Monday.

26 and 69 available in S and E respectively.

What never ceases to amaze is that even though S1E only went on sale in the last day or two and shows as having only 26 seats left you can guarantee there will be more than 26 empty seats which I just literally dont understand.

It's a conspiracy don't ya know!

That's superfan commitment.

Those who couldn't be bothered and watched on TV hang your heads.

Cardiff is Cat C game so cheaper seats for this one.

I, sort of, hung my head in shame as I missed the QPR game. I really, really wanted to go but was stuck in the Cotswolds for family Christmas jollies. Had I attempted to make the journey my goolies would have been chopped off and pickled to be used as stuffing for next year's turkey.

I am now making amends. Driving from Southampton, in what could be freezing fog conditions, I will be there, in the groove, up for it, and feeling the love. Bring it on! :albion2:

Only half of S1E was out on sale a couple of days ago. The other half as been on sale for a while.

To dispute another point. The south stand rarely has any empties when fully sold. As. Let are buying shortly before the even unlike season ticket holders.

It would only take a couple of decent group bookings to suck up the availability.

I made the same point elsewhere, but I guess the logic is pretty simple.

If you buy a ticket for a one-off game, you almost certainly go to the game. Attendance of these folk must be 99%+.

Season ticket holders make around 90% of games on average, I think.

I don't get to many games now I live in Devon, I very much enjoyed being at the QPR game but this one I will have to watch on the box after the game. (I don't think it is live anywhere?)

Oooh S1A now on sale and S1E sold out

kingcole · Dec 30, 2016

S1E sold out and half of S1A now on sale. This is another 200.

Probably means another 600 to shift if S1D is not used by Cardiff. Add second half of S1A
My guess is 29,297

Sales seem to have slowed up. I think the current offerings will be more than enough to satist demand.

I think there will be about 1800 empties in the South and the corner, allowing for segregation, unsold seats in the Cardiff areas and some left unsold from our current offering.

I'm guessing the Shelf will be empty or sparsely occupied for this one. Add in another few hundred empties around the stadium and I predict an official attendance of 28,150.

Not bad and would have easily hit 30k had the visitors done their bit

Yes, naughty naughty Cardiff!

Shifted 30 odd in the last hour

171 of the current litter still up for grabs.

kingcole · Dec 30, 2016

Another hour, another 25 gone. Only 14 in E1H with the rest in S1A.

With walk ups, we may need another section. Would it be the rest of S1A or a bit of S1D?

Depends on what bits Cardiff were allocated.....

This. As someone who suffers from Reynaulds Syndrome, any game from November through February is an ordeal - three pairs of thernal socks and thick boots worn for QPR and I still had no blood or feeling in my feet by full time. Not pleasant.

I suffer from severe Reynaud's too, I agree with all of this.

Regardless, I'm still doing my bit by going along tonight, if only to make up the numbers
