Would be disappointed if we don't get 10k after a great win against Coventry . It's no longer all ticket so I'm guessing tickets sales weren't that great. Wimbledon should bring at least 500 .

might struggle.
A lot extra (family visitors etc) come for Boxing day matches and we haven't had one for a while I think.
BTW - Nice they changed it to pay on the day but I wonder if the club will refund the extra £2 they charge when it's All Ticket?

As even the admin of doing it would be a nightmare let alone the cost to the club. I think we'll be lucky to hit 10K as we've already lost 500+ away fans from Monday's gate of 11,200. |

Surely Wimbledon will bring as many if not more. |

I remember they've bought 800 a couple of times in the past when they weren't doing too well in league 2. Always enjoy chatting to Dons fans, good bunch of supporters |

I thought the game against the Dons last season,at home, was one of the best.
Good football by both teams,we won 3-1 but they impressed me,pacy attack and good passing.
Looking foward to this match,if it's as good as last time it will be money well spent.

About 2k tickets left on the ticket site. Pay day for a lot tomorrow. Hopefully most of those 2k will shift and we'll get close to a sell-out again. |

With there being minimal local amateur football on Saturday and it being pay on the day, 10k isn't out of the question...

I think it's great that we're getting big crowds im pretty sure last time we were mid table in league 1 our crowds were around 7000 when Trollope was manager and we had a decent side then with lambert banging in the goals and a good cup run etc.
I think a fair few might be new fans that have sat up and taken notice of this incredible run we've been on these last two and a half years.

There will also be a few hundred who decide to go on the day, especially if the weathers OK. Therefore I think we may just tip over 10k, which I think is pretty decent. with a modern ground with proper facilities and a wow factor I think our attendances would improve significantly. That's the only way the owners will be able to grow the club sustainably. |

Still just shy of 2k tickets left. If wombles bring 600 ish then were looking at about 9.1k before on the day sales. Cant imagine these figures will budge too much but POTD is an unknown.

But the figures are quite interesting and proves that you're right. 6 of our top 9 League One crowds are this season, with the other three all against Leeds. Our number of loyal supporters is obviously growing. UTG! |

That's the only way the owners will be able to grow the club sustainably. I agree. Look at clubs like Swansea,Hull, Reading,Wigan,and Cardiff etc.. to see what a new stadium will do to your crowds. All of those clubs were getting the same crowds as us, if not less than we get both now, and our pre relegation avgs before they got new stadiums and all of those clubs are from small places than Bristol. For me the crowds that we are getting this season is what a club with our fanbase and potential should be getting in the state the Mem is in and being league one level. I think tomorrow's game in the UWE would attract 15k plus and our season avg would be 12/13k. |
