Also when we can sell 2000 tickets to go there then we can now ask for more.
On the same subject, just 2000 tickets left on sale for the main bowl for Sat , not including the family stand , so maybe a chance that upstairs could be opened if sales continue well.

Spot on Tim
I think my last three visits to Leeds United, We have taken 250, 240, 184 fans, awful and last season City took just over 400 on a Sat 3pm and all those four Away games NO restrictions.

With you 100% Can't stand them, but they deserve respect for their away support
Even if were £24 for us, We would not take quarter of that support on a Tuesday night / live on sky.
Brum away half that distance and it's £20 a ticket, let's hope we take 2,500 fans

As for the attendance, I wouldn't get overly excited, 22-23,000 I reckon, cheap tickets is great by the Club and they cannot be knocked for it but its Tuesday night at the end of the day, Saturday's results will play a part no doubt.
There were only 17,000 home fans on Saturday, to get 25,000 inc Leeds your looking at an extra 5,300 home fans coming for a mid-week game and I can't see it to be honest but I'v been wrong many times before and I may well be again

Steve, I don't understand are you saying a Tuesday night is the reason fans won't come? at home against Leeds United with ticks £5/£10, well I have to stick up for our club they can't do anymore and we are joint Top of the Championship.
Rem Leeds fans are coming on a Tuesday night travelling hundreds of miles, they are not making excuses.
By the way you will be happy to know Leeds wanted more ticks and City turned them down.

Yes mate, its bound to have an effect thats not having a go at anyone the club has done a good thing but theres bound to be less take up cos midweek as opposed to a Saturday, if a Sat I reckon we could have looked at 28-30k mid-week 23-24k i think

looking at availability online it seems we are over the 23k mark with a week to go....whether these 5quid tickets turn into bums on seats is another matter.......but i think there is a 50/50 chance of the top tier being open..

As for Leeds away, I went there once in 2011 and said after that never again.
I've heard they've since mellowed so maybe I'll make the trip this season.
