Probably one of the big teams like Leeds, maybe not so many at the smaller teams near the bottom like Bristol, Barnsley and Swansea?

Well it all depends really doesnt it on a number of factors.
How the teams are doing in the league
If the game is moved
What the restrictions are
I think my fellow Cardiff fans who think we will sell out 33,000+ for a Championship match regardless against either of you are living in a dreamland tbh.

Strange why do you get comfort from Cardiff selling out in a game against Swansea? Is that the apex of your ambition this season?

I think the swansea derby will the last for a very long time as its obvious which direction both clubs are travelling.After this season a cup tie will be the only chance of us meeting as I see it.There will be alot of people in 2040 saying I was there the last time city stuffed the jacks in 2019.

With 500 Jacks coming we will need 32500 Bluebirds which is doable.

It’s not comfort, it’s reality.

We rarely played Swansea apart from in the Welsh Cup, while Bristol and us were usually playing each other in the old Div 2. Swansea were playing the likes of Newport & Wrexham, and we usually beat all three comfortably back in the days when we virtually owned the Welsh Cup. I suppose for younger fans, Swansea is a bigger game because they have had a bit of success in recent times, but the rivalry you first experience in your younger days tends to stay with you forever.

Yes that right, just as lots of younger Swansea fans, don’t really think there’s much of a rivalry with Cardiff anymore.

I remember when the main derby game was against Swindon.
This year Bristol City will probably be a much bigger draw because they'll be challenging at the upper part of the table, whilst I think it's now obvious that Swansea are unfortunately approaching a low ebb and will probably be struggling to avoid League one.
Whether many people will want to pay to watch an easy game like Swansea I don't really know, although a lot of their fans will perhaps travel down the short distance and possibly bring their caravans, extended families and numerous dogs for the weekend.

Same for me, Bristol city was always our derby game, never used to give the tramps down west a second thought.
