" CARDIFF CITY SHOULD COPY "

" CARDIFF CITY SHOULD COPY "
How Blackpool did today with the way they closed part of their ground when you know its no where near a full house.

I am on about like our games v Huddersfield and Leicester C in the Carling Cup, its the only way to make a better atmosphere in my opinion.

Save on Stewards/electric and all other staff, Told the club this for years and still reminded them of this, this season.

I agree

You mean they already can't fill their ground so soon after their spell in the Premier League? Do you think they had "plastics" up there then?

That part of the ground was closed for safety reasons as they are still doing upgrade work. The home ends were a sell-out.

In a way we have done something similar in the past. The corner areas of the Canton aren't on sale on e-ticketing until the rest of the ground is mainly full. These days though they are needed for us.

With 23k crowds, about 1000 spare space in the Prem club, 1500 in away end, 500 for segreagation we don't have a huge amount of empty space.

It didnt help blackpool's support much. Second best all afternoon to the mighty Blue Army

I think the point Annis is trying to make Tim is regards to the Carling cup matches, rather than open all four stands why not open just 2, ie. Grandstand and Ninian

Fair enough, the crowds for the Carling are shocking.


Might be worth sending 50 free kids/student tickets to 200 schools and fill the place with youngsters

Tim, its £10,£5 and £1 Prices are spot on.
But surely close at least one full section of the ground .

Yes the tickets are cheap, but a flyer out to schools with a wad of free tickets could entice a load more down, and some of those could become fans for life.

I'm taking advantage and going in the prem club with my wife and kids. £30 for the 4 of us - bargain. Not so good £7 for burger and chips (which is lovely by the way)

Yes your right it would not hurt to do that, they can keep their burgers
By the way Tim, I gave you a mention in my new book, you've always been a great help

Cheers Annis.

Glad those old football Echos were of some use.

If i remember rightly,they used to do this at Ninian Park for Carling Cup, they would only have certain parts of the ground open, usualy they would close the Bob Bank..
