Been allocated the extra seats on the side at chesterfield. And allocated 3100 at Charlton if we keep up our form I'd expect Charlton will probably sell out as well.

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Vale have sold around 4/500 for Saturday. Hopefully that will be around the 1,000 mark come Saturday. Not played them for about 18 years, hopefully we can keep our good form up!

No one is sure if all ticket or not. Took 1500 to Wigan last year but a lot not going because of the extortionate pricing for this so prob be around 800-1000

This pricing issue for all clubs basically just suits when we're all doing shit. It's an easy excuse for us all. For example say you were top you'd take 2.5k and the price of the tickets would never get a mention same goes for us all if we're struggling then it's easy to say I'm not going there it's £30 yet if we're doing well we take thousands regardless of ticket price.

Not particularly as we are higher than we've been most years yet are taking less away to Bolton possibly than we did to Bury/Wigan last season when mid table all season.

We might still take 1500 or so who knows but I know a few have decided against it due to the cost.

No one is sure on the All Ticket issue? Is it or not? Assume it will be Sheffield Uniteds version of all ticket where it gets made pay on the day on Friday!

 

[Muzzle]

Nowt up here about it being all ticket

Yes but you're away form is nothing short of dreadful ain't it. An example of it was us at bolton in the 1st match it was £30 yet we sold out 4300 if we were at bolton this weekend in our position wed sell out if we were mid table or worse wed take about 2k and everyone would use the ticket price as the reason they didn't go.

Well I would have thought that's obvious.

£30 is a ridiculous price for League One, and if you're doing shit then you're more than likely gonna decide you aren't willing to part with £30. On the flipside, if you're top, you're willing to spend the ridiculous £30 simply because you still feel your getting some value for money.

It's expensive whichever way you look at it.

 

[Hurrikeen]

As for our trip to Dale this weekend, I can see it being our lowest following there for some time.

 

[joethegill]

I'd expect about 200 Gills at Fleetwood on saturday. Maybe a couple more who may consider Blackpool a 'weekender' opportunity.

You say that every year! Only 3 stops on the metrolink.

No surprise there. With the shit on and off the pitch I can't see us needing many more seats than any other game.

 

[West Terrace]

We're taking poor numbers to Walsall on Saturday, only sold 1150 so far

 

[blademan89]

Yep not looking good for you lot at the moment. Bearing in mind it's on tv too you may get less than normal amount of home fans.

Hopefully we get it called off on the off-chance we're better later in the season.

There'll be more than average but not that many more.

You won't turn the TV money down that will of been agreed before sky picked it. We've sold out now the full 2680. With our loyalty points system they couldn't of sold any quicker, may be a few more of us than normal in your end this time. I'm in benidorm so I'll be watching on the box.

Everyone got the same amount of Tv money at the start of the season, whether you are on tv or not everyone gets the same amount in one lump sum.

Didn't know that are you sure you don't get extra because teams would lose out otherwise

At the Agm in the summer chairmen were getting fed up with certain teams always being on Tv and others never getting on so they were asked to vote on 1 lump sum for everyone or to carry on the same.. think it works out at 600k per league 1 club.

 

[Hurrikeen]

Really?

And it's not the distance, it's the (lack of) entertainment.

2200 max I reckon, which would be bobbins.

No chairman will ever want to be on then will they as it costs quite a lot in ticket sales lost normally. There must be an agreement in place that if sky pick you then you can't refuse.

Heard the same, a decision from the FL's meeting in Portugal pre-season???

All clubs in the Football League to get an agreed sum / payment for the season; so those clubs who aren't shown at least get something from the TV deals.
Not sure of the sums involved though and whether there is a further nominal payment to clubs who do appear to cover expenses etc.

Agree with Blademan, don't think it can be called off, there may be some sort of agreement before they decided that the game was to be shown on tv IMO.

I think there is ya know because a couple of weeks ago the club put an announcement on the official site saying the Sheffield united match would definitely be on despite it being an international weekend. Seemed weird to guarantee a game being on considering one of our games has already been called off due to us having international call ups(lol)

Yeah it's tough shit basically.

We're going to be without two key players when we play Swindon on the box because it can't be called off.

 

[Westbars_Spireite]

We'll get fucking bummed anyway so might as well get it over and done with.

I imagine you are right because there is no way we would have stood for playing away to the Trotters on a Monday night ffs

Don't you have to have 4 people off on Int duty before you can apply to have the game called off regardless of telly.

 

[Bobbin']

Three usually, we have Jordan Botaka, Ademola Lookman and Josh Magennis but as it's on the tele we just have to get on with it.

I say we'll be missing two key players as Botaka hasn't played.

 

[CFC91]

This.

Will be pretty depressing to see us get tonked by a local rival on the box infront a half empty ground and various half hearted protests which seem to be planned.

I'm giving it a swerve me, going to Edinburgh for weekend.
