With the home games left, what are the chances of an aggregate gate of 50,000?
We always seem to play Charlton in midweek at home, so we should get a good away crowd on Sat, Luton and Barnsley (1st visit to the Mem?) are well supported and going well, Bradford could be vital and Rochdale is a bank holiday.

I've already bought 2 tickets for the Charlton game. Hopefully we will see a 10,000+ attendance, with Charlton close to selling their full allocation.

Like i been saying on this forum for years . If we extended away fans to 1500-2000 plus we would be averaging a lot more. Charlton Luton Barnsley would of brought close to 2000 along with Pompey Muff Sunderland . We are losing a six figure sum by reducing away fans to 1100 and knocking off home attendance averages .

Can`t argue with that. To be fair, for the whole season so far, very few people didn`t know where the main problem lay, and now we`ve actually got a big, strong CF who can bully defences and find the net, both results and entertainment are much improved.

But to increase their allocation given to them we would have to give them more of the south stand and for the big games we sell at least 75% of that anyway. We’d be moving season ticket holders out of their seats, a lot of them either families or elderly and need a seat anyway and losing home seats that we are in dire need of in the mem where there is just 3000 available, just to make the south stand slightly more full. It just isn’t worth it, if it was I’m sure the club would have been doing it by now.

A lot of clubs vary the away capacity dependent upon likely home and away support. If there's a will, there's a way.

Most of those clubs have a big all seated stand devoted to housing an away section where home fans can be relocated to another part of the stadium should demand for away tickets be great enough to merit doing so. The mem just isn’t set up in a way that this is possible, there is no way to extend terrace space beyond what away fans are usually allocated already as there simply isn’t the access and there is no way to extend the seated allocation unless the south stand isn’t being used by home fans. Just one of the many reasons why we need a new stadium or a proper south stand at the mem.

I appreciate our set up is very poor compared to most, but as I say there could be a way if we tried I'm sure

If we can sell an additional 1000 away tickets at £25 2019/20 season. This works out at 25k per game x 6 or more. Pompey Muff Sund would of brought 2000 plus. And Charlton www.cafc.co.uk/news/view/5c8b783e9192d/away-fans-guide-memorial-stadiumSold out Luton www.lutontown.co.uk/news/2019/march/bristol-rovers-sold-out/We can't lose over 150k plus a season when the ground is 2-4 000 short each week. Who else would turn away 1000 extra fans a game ??

A lot of local games called off today, so good chance to try and persuade mates who usually play to come along and support the club.

Even if it is a rubbish game it has got to be better than shopping in town with the Mrs!
