what is this fascination with selling out home games, all it means is I have to queue to get a pint - feck orf, 20k is just right, leave some spaces for the blue brigade to sit together - if they can spot each other! :D :old:

red, blue, pink, orange stripes, who cares, it's the name and bluebird that matter to me, the rest - I can live with, just - as long as promises are kept and the premiership awaits!

Oh and they get rid of Compass and bring in KFC - oh and lower the water (I mean beer) prices!!

I'm afraid the reason why we haven't sold out is because we're not as big a club as some on here like to think we are :o

Lots of people do work today Chief i could of been one of them. But you are right we should sell out (parden the pun) but we aint in the prem yet. Lots dont go due to well documented reasons and the football isnt exactly wow is it.

We have never sold out as the stadium is to big.Sections of the main stand at the back have never had people sitting in them.

The buzz just isn't there for me, top of the league, and wether you accept the red, tolerate it or fully embrace it, you can't argue the change has affected the match day experience. I would still be there but can't today anyway. If tan thinks the rebrand is the way forward then today's game should've sold out ages ago, the fact it isn't should show the rebrand hasn't had the affect he'd hope for. Not in South Wales where it really matters anyway, there might be a few in asia watching but who cares?

I think we would have had a better crowd if we were chasing the leaders the fact that we are top a lot of fans are taking it for granted that we are up and waiting for next season.as they see this season is over top of the table mediocrity has set in for some :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I agree the move has changed the match day atmosphere, we knew it would. But, we are top the league, last few home games, why isn't it a sell out?

Its not a sell out as Blackburn are only bringing a few hundred and so the segregation area has been opened up. Otherwise the main bowl at least would be sold out. The premier club rarely is as its far too expensive and needs a member to introduce you anyway.

Oh and today you wouldn't have been able to get through on the phone because they have been dealing with season ticket queries all morning :?

Lots of other reasons as to why it wasn't a sell out earlier all well documented... rebrand, money, excitement etc..
