Wonder if they will open blocks 417 and 517 or try and keep a segregation as it overhangs the away end a bit.



Common sense would say they keep 517 for cash sales tonight. Sell from Red Booth outside Canton End.
You cannot pick your seat (saving time) just take what you are given. That would allow 500? walk up crowd on the night to get in quick and easy.

I agree but hope to be wrong as it would send a strong message to the football fans in the area (and the media, egg chasers)that Cardiff can become a top club.

To be fair to Paul I said the same yesterday just based on segregation.

Looking at the stadium plan now though we may just sneak over 30k.

Waiting on Block 514 to be sold out........ yes sadly watching the plan.

Probably sold around 3000 of the Ninian Middle and Upper Tier now. Leaving 2000 to sell in there. If they are going to put them on sale?
Crowd now depending on segregation and the amount sold in grandstand.
But with the lower bowl holding 28,500, less 1500 segregation/Grandstand losses, means about 27,000 sold incl. Wolves.
Then the 30,000 crowd is achievable. (27,000 plus 3,000).
More relaxing watching ticket graph than the game tonight lol

Still queuing outside at 4.30
Must be close to a sell out now

Re: Updated: " I was told today "

Ticket sales now taken down online. Only a few hundred left of those put on sale.

Altogether I would say there were 3,000 seats left taking into account segregation.

I reckon we have just about creeped over the 30k mark and they could still put the rest of Block 416 and 516 on sale (400 seats) perhaps even Block 517 and 417 (800 seats).

I would say we are looking at 30,500 to 31,000 a bit more if the walk up is 1,000 as opposed to 500.
