What do you think the attendance will be for this game...my guess is 24,500
 

Plumming for 19,500. And that will be the biggest for a while. They'll all be back next season when we're back in the Championship.
 
Just over 4,500 tickets remain in the home end for Saturday. So I reckon we'll be looking at about 28k +
 
Away end - given initially 2,000 tickets with a maximum 5 per person!

Presumably They haven't sold out yet...
 
BLUT is open. Said yesterday that 600 were left up there. They'll probably close the first couple of rows off, you would have thought.
 
Moved to Westfield Upper so that I could get 4 together, only edges of South Stand and John ST left. 29,000 my prediction.
 
South Stand & John Street now sold out. Looks like very few on BLUT and the Kop only having groups of tickets on the wings.

Stevenage Football Club are disappointed to announce to supporters that our fixture with Sheffield United on Saturday is now ALL TICKET.

No really sure why they're disappointed... We've almost sold out, so,what do they expect us to do? Leave a load of tickets on turnstiles just in case an extra 1000 turn up on the day?

They've had plenty of time to buy and could even buy 5 per person.

I'm sure all that want tickets can get them

Edit - just noticed that they only pay a tenner !!!
 
How many do they get for home games? Can't be that far off the allocation we have given them.
 
Someone at work has just given in and bought tickets.

Only the back corners of the Kop still available to buy online.
 
2000 tickets left according to twitter feeds... so we are looking at a 30k+ crowd

Home tix on kop were £10 for adults and £5 for concs.
Cos it's live on't goggle box
Think they have to offer same to away fans.
 

my first trip to the Lane in a while-been too distracted by away matches this season.
 
Oh whatever happened to not giving cheap tickets this season
I think that changed when there was some changes in staff mid season. As a STH I have no problem with it anyway, Only costs £13.50 on average a game for me and my 9 year old. Just hope the ones who come along today make some noise and gets right behind the team.
 
Perhaps someone could explain to those who only come occasionally the concept of "kick-off time" and the need to be in your seat just before kick-off rather than ten fucking minutes after. Every time it's a big crowd we're up and down like jack-in-the-boxes because people would rather have some more ale/a pie/fuck about dithering like a shopping pensioner than watch all of the football.

I accept that there are mitigating factors for some, and if they'd sit further back than Row P on the Kop that would be a big help to me as they wouldn't be bowling in late to disrupt my view.

And a memo to the lads sat along the row from me - saying "excuse me" rather than either standing their like a slack-jawed yokel, willing me to move using the power of telekinesis or just barging through us helps too. Remember lads, it's nice to be nice, and if you can't be nice as you wander in with your stinky pie ten minutes after kick-off then expect a grumpy 40-something bloke to call you an ignorant twat as you just barge through. Yes, tosser with the jeans at half fucking mast with the balti pie that smelt like my cat's litter tray, I mean you. You and your ignoramus mates, except for the polite one that looked (according to Small SV who is 8 years old and a girl, and therefore an expert in these matters) like "him out of One Direction" who actually managed to say "excuse me" and "thank you" proving that not all teenagers need flogging. Just most of them.

I accept that this is a rant that most people might not agree with completely, but I'm still fucked off at watching those imbeciles hand promotion to the arseholes from S6, and having had messages off my little shit of a piggy nephew and his father, my brother-in-law who only attends the sty when someone else furnishes him with a ticket I'm not in the best of moods, so I might go on a bit, but I don't care. I'm right, and if you disagree then you are clearly a buffoon.;)
 
Not to mention the idiots next to us, in the family stand, who came in paralytic with their bottles of 'lemonade' yeah right and proceeded to phone all and sundry around the ground, standing up and waving and shouting 'Look I'm over here, near the screen, look, I'm waving at you now, look, can't you see me, I'm near the screen' on and on and on. Thankfully they didn't reappear for the second half.

I was stood outside the ground from and didn't manage to get in till 10 mins after kickoff due to the amount of people queueing up.

Me too. Sometimes people are just late. Usually I'm about 15 minutes early, feels good to watch the ground fill up and soak up the atmosphere.

BTW, according to the BBC website the attendance was 30,043
 
I couldn't believe the attendance for the 2nd leg was 21,000.
I couldn't see 12,000 empty seats from the kop.
 

Same. The only empty stand seemed to be the away end. Kop and GAC were full and John Street was at least 85%.
