Grimsby sold out in the home ends and i’d imagine donny will be too (only about 7,000 in fairness but heyho) so be nice if one or both get close to selling out, but with one being a 12-30 KO and the other being an evening one it’s fair enough if don’t sell out - i didn’t make donny away this season as was an evening match.
I would guess that even if we don’t sell out it will be pretty close so should still be decent.

Also plenty of rain forecast so if the impossible happens and you lose this weekend and us and Donny win you have good reason to call them off!

It probably will be called off either way. Boring.

Something not right with our pitch this season, get a flake of snow in norway and we’re off.

2,700+ sold for Doncaster Friday night. We might shift another 100-200 more, but I don’t think it’s a bad effort so near to Xmas.

We haven't sold out for Mansfield on Boxing Day, still got a few left after the initial surge of selling 1,300 ish. Decent display on Saturday and they might all go.

Haven't seen but Swindon tickets are now at general sale. I'd say anywhere between 2k-2.5k as we were given just shy of 3k.

I've heard there'd be about 13.5k on Boxing day - all because of Hollywood. I don't get it!

Probably around 1500 I'd imagine. With no disrespect to Swindon, it's a crap tie to play on Boxing Day, particularly with a more local away game three days later. At another time it would have been one more people would have wanted to go to as well.

Have we sold that many? I got the impression sales were relatively slow. Fair dos

Honestly, I don't know but the Wrexham affect would kick in for the extra tickets. That'd be my guess. Regardless of it being 3 hours away, you can still be back home on boxing day for 8ish.

Probably nothing to do with Wrexham - think our lot are turning up to chuck some vitriol at Clem and his merry band of gangsters. Should be toxic. Boxing Day always sees a good crowd irrespective. Dogs in the morning, few beers, football in the afternoon.

See your plod have allocated a couple of pubs - you’ll need some Colombian marching powder to walk to the ground from those 2.

It's just sell out after sell out after sell out this season including this evening.

The latest being the journey back in time to Blundell Park on the 13th Jan.

No surprise.

Shame you couldn't ever sell it out when we used to give you the full stand.

That's likely to be when we played either hoofball or pretty direct under an inspirational manager.

Times sure have changed on that front at NCFC

How big was the full stand? And why the change?

Holds about 1800, but we take either the corner or the main part of the stand back now depending on which team is in town as we've had several home sell outs in the past few seasons.

missing Notts at Stockport assume the 906 sell out?
also missing Gills at FGR and total attendance, perhaps FGR are too embarrassed to announce the low crowd.
