CROWD FOR PLYMOUTH 25,000 ?

Has to be a big crowd, it's what our team and manager deserve after this start.

Can't use the kick off time or it being on Sky as an excuse. Isn't stopping Plymouth bringing a lot and didn't stop Peterborough bringing decent numbers.

Also didn't stop our fans travelling well today or at Vale.

those of us that go week in week out won't be bothered by sky early kick offs etc

But sadly we do have a lot of floating fans who find any excuse not to turn up unless it's the Jack's or Premier league football

If the product is good then 'floaters' as you call them will turn up and very possibly become regulars but as we all know the product on offer has been mediocre to shite for years now and certainly only the diehards could happily keep going with things as they were.
It's like being a regular at a restaurant that specialises in shite food, you'd stop using that restaurant unless you were a mug.
I reckon there will be a good attendance for the Plymouth game as 'floaters' can see a new dawn with entertaining football and impressive results so they want to see what all the fuss is about, if the team keep up the effort then there will be less floaters and more regulars as at the end of the day we all want to be entertained and be proud of our team.
24,000 crowd I reckon

It would be funny if we started pulling 10,000 more than that massive club out west, a league below with woeful owners too, think it would be put to bed once and for all, not that it’s ever been in doubt in any rational mind.

To be fair to Swansea they don’t get bad crowds , and as a city as large as Cardiff (425,000 with another 500,000 within 25 miles ) we should attract 20,000 minimum per home game if successful in L1. Cardiff City crowds are moderate.

I’ve been banging on for years how as a % of our city population are crowds are not good, the city doesn’t really support the club, only 2/3% go when you take into account half our support comes from outside. I’d love to see a day where we got to the top flight and stayed there with proper owners…..

Well if we cannot fill the canton and ninian FULLY for this game?
will we ever, until we one day may get back to the Premier league
We should be getting 25,000 without the plymouth fans
Our fans really need to turn up not just for an annual against swansea which we won' t be doing this season or Bristol so no excuse that I can see.

First game I ever saw at Ninian park was against Plymouth and we beat them 5 -1 I was hooked was anyone else there that day and remembers the team and the scorers ?

Depends how old you are! I remember us beating them in about 1967- for some reason New Years day is in my mind. I was a young boy then and have no idea who scored or played but if it was that game I will go for a team of

Bob Wilson, Graham Coldrick, Bobby Ferguson, Gareth Williams, Don Murray, Brian Harris, Peter King, Bobby Brown, John Toshack, Ronnie Bird, Barrie Jones. (though he may even be in opposition that day). Plymouth might have played in white with a green and black hoop

We also had a very young keeper around that time called Lyn Davies and he may have been in goal. And Dave Carver might have been in instead of Coldrick. Other candidates would be George Andrews, Norman Dean

The game was 1 Jan 1966

City 5 Plymouth 1

Attendance 8,890

Well i was spot on with New Years Day but a year too late. How do i remember that nearly 60 years later when I cant even remember what I did yesterday!

Just before my time, but that would have been New Years Day 1965/66?

If so, there were three scorers for the Bluebirds were George Andrew’s (2), Terry Hardin (2), and Barrie Hole

Jimmy Schoular was the manager and the attendance was a mere 8,890 in the old Second Division (now Championship)

Every little helps, nice to go with your dad, wish mine was still around to do that with,
hats off to you for taking the "old man".

They simply don't have the pulling power of us? Home crowd of 14k yesterday in championship is not great regardless of of the size of Swansea and surrounding areas....
Theres more than enough urban conurbation to support a football club like Theres.

Swansea has the city itself , most of neath , most of port talbot i would say 50 percent of bridgend is now jack .......and west wales ....easy enough to support a top flight side of 20000 crowds

Given the great following from plymouth as always I think a crowd of 22 k

Not going to get many gates better that that this season , even if we are winning

We can only hope that the atmosphere replicates the last two home games critically it's about the noise , rather than numbers .

Let's here the ninian joining in with the canton, and shout down the argyle.

Why sit at home watching the game on tv when it's in your city, i travel from mid wales for home games about 6 hours round trip,i cannot do every one but if i lived in the city I would.

Surely we have to be pushing 25,000 19,500 first game plymouth bringing 3,000 surely we can bring 22,000.

Best we have played since warnock days let's drowned them plymouth fans out,the
"feel good factor is back"

what's your excuse for not going this time?
it does' nt get any better than this,
come on bluebirds let's do it.

Lots of people will get paid (monthly) this Friday could well boost the attendance, the management and players are certainly doing their bit, fans need to do their bit. Tough game

Players respond to a big crowd thats why it's imperative that we drowned out there fans, otherwise plymouth will be responding to there fans backing.

I agree Monty last season our home support was awful and in fact it helped the away team.

This season we have more fans at home on attendance and less away fans

Our players do respond to good home crowds etc

Cannot understand any city fan that would want to stay away from this game, biggest of the season at home so far the team that got relegated with us along with luton who we disposed of need to keep this winning streak going and we have to play our part the players have stepped up.

Your right Monty we shud be getting very good crowds in now , very nice football and exciting to watch , hasn’t been like this for years , I’d say 22000 -23000 but who knows , a 25000 wud be fantastic with the noise deafening for the opposition.
Come on bluebirds get down the stadium to watch this young exciting team

Yes nice one richy we will be a part of it saturday, just don' t draw Grimsby.

What’s everyone’s thoughts?! Hopefully between 22/23k? We should get 25k with the 3k Plymouth are bringing after the positive start to the season.

I’ll be up early in Florida for the game, another one on Paramount+

I doubt this will break the internet Monty.

Sorry if I’ve stepped on the toes of someone with a bigger stature on this message board.

And hopefully, I haven’t broken the internet as well lol

Apparently 20k sold so far, with ticket office hoping for another 1000 all being well

I’d say 22,400 tops

I was inviting to join or for mods to put the 2 together no need for sarky comments budd.
