" TOTAL SELL OUT "

Fri Nov 05, 2010 1:34 pm

I have just taken a call from the club and have been told that the game against Swansea is sold out including the Premier seats which were 50 quid each.

As I said on Tuesday the club believe they could have sold 40,000 tickets for the game.

Lets have the stadium rocking on Sunday.

That's brilliant. What's the record attendance for a Cardiff v swansea game? I wonder how many seats will act as a buffer zone

Todays Echo gives reports on previous derbies at Cardiff and our 1-0 win in 1949 had "over 57,000" there - guessing it would be that one.

Great news, this was posted on the 'other board' by a premier Club member yesterday, who is usually spot on, but I thought it may have been just them taking the tickets off sale. Now you've confirmed it, I'm delighted. I never thought I'd see the day !

1200 extra tickets at £50 a head is a fair few extra bucks for the club too 9or as a reduction of the PMG debt -as well as most importantly showing our new owners that the demand is out there and we CAN become a big club.

gate must be touching just under 26000 even after segregation now.

Hopefully they will repeat this offer for any other big games we have from now on, especially if we keep our form up and stay near the top. The Boxing day game with Cov will be a perfect one to sell out.

Agreed - I'm glad common sense prevailed here. The Prem seat sales will be key to larger average attendances, particularly when the away side bring a handful of fans.

Onwards and upwards!!
