Crowd v Wednesday

[nwgull]

Bums on seats = 19,400

I am starting to sense a little waning of support. Mates who support other teams and came along every week have lost the inquisitive factor of the Amex and have stopped going ( this May improve if we end up challenging for promotion).

I will be more interested to see Saturdays attendance with it being at a stupid time!

Saturday looks like being close to a sell out (for home fans anyway) if the 100 or so tickets that show as remaining on the official site is anything to go by.

Mmmmm...I am a bit old school really, and do get irrationally annoyed when the crowd announcement is made and you know it's just on tickets sold!

Not that it matters in the great scheme of things.

Actual 22k, what will be announced closer to 26k.

i would like to see the seats by the away end west stand side sold out or near to sold out because it looks crap when they look empty

Don't think the crowd will be any good on Wednesdy however Tuesday crowd should be ok!

Sheffield Wednesday fans think they are a MASSIVE club

 

[northstandsteve]

Would we do more than 400 to Wednesday on a Tuesday night when we are mid table? Still they are a massive club !!!

So it was 25,500 ish...but there were many many empty seats. Wouldn't surprise me if that was a sub 20k bums on seats gate

That would mean 1 in 3 seats unoccupied. I don't think it was that low.

Subtracting the away support there wasn't many matchday tickets sold even with students getting in for £15. Many on a budget who had to choose between this match and the one on Saturday will have opted for the Forest game.

Probably neither clubs fans saw this as a glamour tie. Shame it couldn't have been a Saturday as They would hat brought more as they could have made a weekend of it.

On a Saturday there would have been an extra thousand or so Sheffield Wednesday fans travelling and no need to do the student offer.

That extra thousand or so would have been useful for an emergency loan strikers wages.

4000 more than Leeds, biggest gate in the division (as usual), more than Crystal Palace get on a Saturday afternoon in the Premier League... and we think its a bad crowd. Its great to support a well supported club.
