1,245 left in East terrace
1,359 left in blackthorn
159 in the family stand
Just 2 in west terrace
That's just 2,765 left but the club have just said advance sales have just ticked past 7,000..
Isn't it sh** how we can't even fit 10,000 home fans in anymore??

Reckon it'll be our biggest attendance of the season. Lots of part timers I know are crawling out the cracks!

Is it pay on the day? If so, we must be looking at a full house.

This has the potential to be absolute chaos on friday, most people won't know the situation and will just turn up.

Why is it we could get 12,011 against WBA but only 11k for a 'sold out' match against Alfreton? I know we had the Guiness Stand, but the club said that it didn't increase the capacity and the numbers from that were taken from other stands (and it only held 250ish).

Presumably because WBA sold out their away allocation and Alfreton didn't?

Isn't it sh** how we can't even fit 10,000 home fans in anymore?? There are 2 more days for people to buy in advance, and I believe it's a pay on the day game. If it's a decent day weather wise I can imagine a situation where people will be denied access to the ground, with possible trouble as a result. That in turn will give the risk-averse Police the excuse they need to clamp down on the club with all future matches this season being made all ticket "just in case"' with the associated revenue loss that would ensue from the loss of pay on the day customers. If it gets to where there are only a few hundred tickets left at the end of business on Thursday I think it would be wise for the club to declare it a sell-out and avoid the risk of public disorder as a result of people being turned away. I expect the Police are already getting a bit concerned about this, and will be looking to keep their staffing as low as possible, what with it being a bank holiday, they won't want to pay out any more double time than they have to.

What is the "situation" I should be aware of? The situation of there being very limited spaces available by friday and potentially lots of people wanting to pay on the gate.

I think every game will be all ticket when we're challenging at the top of league 1 next season. If I wasn't a season ticket holder I'd either get to the ground very early or buy a ticket for Friday.

Just tried online to get a ticket for the west enclosure, and couldn't get one, now bought one in the east terrace. I would advise anyone without a ticket to get one in advance as soon as possible to avoid disappointment, can't see many being left on the day....
