Wistaston Ram Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 10 minutes ago, Steve Buckley’s Dog said: Just had a quick count up of how many tickets are left, to save anyone else doing it. I make it about 1,100. I think, for some reason probably related to Birmingham City, our capacity is well done from what it used to be under police advice. With a full away end it should be easier to work out. 🐏 Also depends on how many season ticket holders don't show up. Being a big game, I would expect there to be less 'no shows' for this one, so hopefully we will hit 30k. Looking forward to it albeit with low expectations, but you never know.

MadAmster Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Ipswich have won 6 on the bounce without conceding a goal. Derby are well known for stopping other teams' runs, whatever that run may be..... 1-3 it is then 😞 SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, who knows? We might get our groove back on against a footballing side and surprise them - and ourselves! Hope springs eternal. I'm still reassuring myself that at least we have a team to go and support and a manager, who despite some limitations, I've really warmed to as a human being - if not a master tactician. If we fall short this season, so what? With a little leeway from the EFL (😂), we can start to rebuild with players that fit the model Warne wants to play in order to get out of this tinpot division. Tension beginning to build now. 🤞 LittleEatonRam, Mrso, DiggerB and 4 others 2 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s more midweek matches that some season ticket holders find it hard to get to. I doubt here will be many unused season tickets today. I just wonder about the amount of segregation there is now compared to what there was. Wistaston Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Attendance is always based on tickets sold not clicks of turnstiles. Season ticket holders there or not are counted. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addingham Ram Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Regardless of the exact attendance, it's likely to be something like the 6th highest attendance in the country today, even with nearly a full Premier League and Championship fixture list.

Gerry Daly Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Yes. I’m sure they used to count season tickets as being there(certainly in the days of GSE and Tom Glick) but stopped doing that some time ago now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archied Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Just about to set off , not feeling optimistic but it’s a game of football and form can change in the blink of an eye , a win to keep us top 6 would be massive , COME ON DERBY💪 Miggins, jimtastic56, SKRam and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Can't be there today as am on my way to see my gf in Edinburgh. But today is such a massive game- it could be the day we turn around this bad run of form. But if we slip out of the top 6 I am not sure I see us getting back in there tbh. Hopefully Warne has worked on how to actually attack teams and stop making basic defensive errors. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreveram Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Only 866 tickets left. West stand 7. East stand 106. North stand 206. NE Corner 547. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Lots of negativity and apprehension on here. Hope that isn’t reflected in the crowd today. Really need a big effort to get behind the team, roaring at the big tackles and clapping every attack. COYR!

Get her to come down here, buy her a ticket and put some more cash into coffers. If she doesn’t want to go to the match bung her few quid to go shopping and treat her to a burger and a pint in the Standing Order later. You travel up next Thursday evening when it’s a BH weekend, early start on Easter Monday morning and back for MK Dons. Not enough lateral thinking 😂!!

Why would they have different seats for walk ups. Tickets go off sale online two hours before kickoff. Telephone sales go off sale one hour before kickoff.

There have been a few games this season where we had very few left on line and then a 28k crowd gets announced. I used to count like you do but I stopped as it got too frustrating ! jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they’ll only keep those seats back until the others are sold. Yesterday morning tickets were being added in as fast as they were being sold. As I pointed out yesterday, Block H in the West stand isn’t normally on general sale, but tickets were added and have subsequently sold. Saying all this they will probably announce a crowd of 28,500..😂 jimtastic56 and WystonRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wistaston Ram Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I have been to every home this season and the seat next to me is always vacant except for the first game v Oxford, yet it rarely seems to be available to buy - a bit annoying when asking a friend to come along. I keep wondering whether it was bought as a season ticket by someone unable to attend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
