Surely they sold out when you only gave them the upper

Nope.

 

[Another Walkley Owl]

Nope.

I know your usually right, but are you sure? I know there were spaces, but thought they had sold all the tickets they got. Prepared to bow to your knowledge though. Out of interest who do you get your info from at ticket office, is it Alistair?

 

[Walkley_Owl]

We had our allocations cut after the Kirkland incident though I do think we were a couple of hundred short last season, but Josie would know that better than me.

2015/16 3,554 (allocated 4k i believe)
2014/15 3,998 (allocated some of the lower)
2013/14 3,169 (on Sky, not sold out)

Pretty certain that 13/14 reduced allocation was a sell out sure I can remember reading it on that old forum

Yeah I thought they had not sold out at your gaff in recent years,same at boro too. Leeds don't sell out everywhere these days for obvious reasons but always found it strange with sheff weds and boro because it's not too far away.

It wasn't they could have had 3,500, it was the 6-0 on Sky game.

They always sell Boro out, plus the amount of hoops they jump through just to get tickets, no general sale at Leeds.

I think they may of sold out last season at boro but the previous 2 or 3 seasons they never. I'm not digging at Leeds, that would be stupid as they have better away support than we do.

 

[villa loyal]

Bristol city has sold out, allocation 2500

2015/16 2,652 Leeds*
2014/15 2,960 Leeds*
2013/14 3,211 Leeds*
2012/13 2,099 Leeds (Tuesday)

Tickets on sale for the top tier, passed safety regulations. Should be a sellout crowd against Newcastle, though I'm not sure if it'll be the full 27k, probably more like 24k, as we weren't allowed to sell the full capacity in the south stand for the first few games last season. Hopefully full 27k vs Villa the next week.

there is only a couple of thousand tickets left for the villa game apparently.

not all sell outs then? Yeah that game was always on tv.

Depends on the allocations offered, they varied, both us and Leeds had tickets withdrawn due to persistent standing.

 

[JJH]

Yeah, should sell out what's on offer in the home end which will hopefully be close to 27k.

 

[JJH]

Some fella on Twitter reckons we've sold 400 tickets for tomorrow night at Norwich. Great effort if true for a near 10 hour round trip.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

If anyone gets the chance can we look in the matchday programmes for away attendances, ta.

Are you doing our league again this year mate

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Are you doing our league again this year mate

Yes fella, a few estimates as per at the start.

 

[parmyhtfc]

Just 27 tickets left for villa tomorrow should go in the morning

Good support that.

Next away game after Villa is Leeds

Is it too early to do a averages table in September?

 

[villa loyal]

Enjoy villa park boys, best ground in the league.

After St James.......

After St James.......

all a matter of opinion of course, though st James is great. Prefer hillsborough over st James though as I'm more of a traditionalist. In fact I didn't think there is a more beautiful ground in England than villa park.

St James
Villa Park
Hillsborough

In that order

 

[villa loyal]

The holte end steps over all of the grounds mentioned.

Most people will say their own but this is the same Holte End that's been empty for the best part of 18 months. Old/traditional ground, yes but come on...

1,638 Wednesday at Norwich apparently.
