Millwall had a ticket allocation of 49k and sold 45k so looks like they may have the record, the full attendance was 59k so it must have been pretty empty in the Scunthorpe end


Title: Re: Wembley ticket sale predictions

Difficult to know....there were tickets on sale prior to the match, but it's quite possible that you could pay on the day. The official attendance was 98,189. That season Arsenal's average attendance was roughly twice ours, so if you give them 64 000 and us 32 000, that would probably seem about right.


Title: Re: Wembley ticket sale predictions
Post by: Family at War on Sunday, March 4, 2012, 17:50:26
Must have been at least 35k as the attendance was 98k me being one of them.

Can only imagine what it must have been like to watch the Town in a packed crowd of almost 100k. Incredible.

I still think we'll top 30,000 - although at the outset I'd have said anything over 25,000 would have been impressive.  Most of the people going this time will also have been in 2010 - when both the football on the pitch and the atmosphere in the stands were rubbish.

Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, March 13, 2012, 14:39:21
A lot of these estimates have been well overtaken, mine included, a newer estimate I feel will be 28,244.

To put this into context for the League Cup final both Cardiff and Liverpool took 31,000 with both those clubs having much larger support than us.

Yes I know they had a smaller allocation than they could have sold but its still a great turn out for what a lot of fans call a Mickey Mouse/tinpot cup final.

It is nice to know that if we ever did get to a 'proper' cup final we'd sell out our allocation no problem. High 20's for the Jpt is pretty good going.

Sounds like a good idea but it will upset some fans who paid the booking fees etc.

I have no problem with them doing it though, the more the merrier even if they are day trippers, I want to see a sea of red and white at one end of the stadium that will really spur the players on.
