Sales for this game have been good city are expecting biggest gate of the season and with a big following from villa in excess of 3,000 it will be a game not to be missed, for the guys who pick their games, please pick this one. Your club needs you.

How many have we sold so far ?
Mon Dec 26, 2016 9:39 pm
18 at best I would sAy
Mon Dec 26, 2016 10:22 pm
Will be a few thousand more than normal- maybe 22k at best, but won't be 30k, that would be a record crowd for us at CCS.
Mon Dec 26, 2016 10:42 pm
The biggest attendance for a domestic game anywhere in wales or the west this season was us v wurzels (22700) .be good to top this. Not bad considering Trollope gave us our worst start in our entire history.
Mon Dec 26, 2016 11:02 pm
28k I'm going for
Mon Dec 26, 2016 11:03 pm
With no offers we won't hit that, but it will be more like 24-25 k

great crowd considering our current position.
Tue Dec 27, 2016 10:42 am
20 to 23k maximum I say unfortunately
Tue Dec 27, 2016 11:45 am
19,000 - 21,000.
Tue Dec 27, 2016 11:57 am
Anything over 20,000 is a good crowd, think we'll get about 22/23.
Tue Dec 27, 2016 11:59 am
Villa had 41k yesterday!
Tue Dec 27, 2016 12:17 pm
I think we will get 25,000.
We have a large floating fan base and everyone's off work.

Correct and it's the biggest game of the season and we have 250,000 CITY fans on our data base, not asking to much to get 30,000 crowd incl 3,500 VILLA fans

Every club this time of the year get massive home crowds and sell out Away, so no reason why we have to be the only club not toi

21/22k would be an impressive crowd given our current predicament and I don't think we will be far off, maybe more like 19/20k is realistic though, its a shame this fixture wasn't over the main festive period as most people and schools are back in work on Tuesday and I expect a lot of people will be spent out.
If it had been boxing day I think we could have pushed 25k+.

True, a Boxing Day match with a bank holiday after was perfect but should still get a decent crowd. It will be a good one.

Spot on. However, I'm looking forward to the day, and there are quite a few from the Rhondda going who haven't been all season. Let's hope for a decent performance to get them coming back regularly.

hope we get 25,000 + for this one after all villa are the biggest club in this division .

Behind Newcastle
Tue Dec 27, 2016 9:50 pm
infront of newcastle
Wed Dec 28, 2016 1:48 am
i'll be there. I know a few going too but i'll be suprised if there anything over 20/21k without any promos. What did we have at bristol, 23/24k? And that was a derby with a huge free ticket give away and a new manager!

They weren't spent out when we were in the Premier League?
Arsenal /Man United and Man City all away in Jan, sold out.
All home games sold out
Plus the rest of the Football League clubs will be getting big crowds.
Its 3pm on a Bank Holiday, not on tv, Aston Villa home
We should be realistically looking at 28,000 including 3,500 Aston Villa fans
Wed Dec 28, 2016 5:34 pm
ITS PAY ON THE DAY FOR ASTON VILLA HOME
Wed Dec 28, 2016 8:25 pm
if it's pay on the day can see a few more villa coming down
i payed on the day at villa a few weeks ago when it was supposed to be restricted sales for us up there

You cant compare first games in years against Man Utd, Man City and Arsenal in the Premiership to Aston Villa at home in the Championship, people would have saved their money specificaly for those games, surely you can see that, everyone else can.
I don't understand why you have such unrealistic expectations when it comes to our crowds to be honest, seriously expecting us to get 28,000 is just crazy.
Thu Dec 29, 2016 12:05 am
I think we will get around 20,000.
Thu Dec 29, 2016 11:10 am
Got an extra ticket today for my son as back home from university . Asked how the tickets were selling and lady stated ok and exoecting bigger crowd of the season but still only around 23 k
