27,500 there yesterday.
Their biggest home crowd in over 7 years.
Presumably their ground renovations are now complete.
This should have enabled them to give us more than 2,000 tickets.
Guess this is just preparing us for Leeds to do the same on the last day of the season…. |  |

Sunderland only got 2,000, I checked on their website a few weeks ago, when trying to see how many tickets we would get |  | | |

'Presumably their ground renovations are now complete.'
Looks that way, as that's the first attendance in excess of 22000 this season.
'This should have enabled them to give us more than 2,000 tickets.'
Think they just follow the guidelines, no club gets more than 2000 at St Andrews for an EFL game, even Leeds who sell the full allocation, whatever it is, everywhere.
'Guess this is just preparing us for Leeds to do the same on the last day of the season….'
We gave Leeds the best part of 3000, you'd like to think they'd likewise.
Don't know, but guessing the upper tier holds around 2000, lower 1000ish, so for segregation and security it wouldn't be the brightest idea to have 1000 Leeds fans right below the Saints fans. Would It? |  | | |

Fairly sure we gave Birmingham more than 2,000 tickets. | |

We touched on this in a different thread.
They got 3k.

'In the Championship, League One, and League Two, home clubs must provide 2,000 tickets for visiting supporters, or 10% of the stadium capacity if it’s less than 20,000'. | | | |

I went to Birmingham, when Strachan was manager, the year we went to the cup final. It was one of the best atmospheres I have experienced. It was really loud. We lost 3 - 2. The whole ground sang we will journey on. They put the coaches in a cage, bit like Millwall. Got back on the coach after the game and had a brick through the window. They have Mowbray as manager, a very good appointment after Rooney. It will be a tough game. [Post edited 18 Feb 13:41]

What's your reasoning for Birmingham being a giant in waiting?
Only the Second biggest club in their own City.
One major trophy in 150 years(League Cup), 20 behind the Villa.
Same amount seasons in PL as Little Pompey.
It'll be a long wait, nobody alive today got any chance of seeing it | | | |

'Second biggest club in their own City'
Birmingham is a big city wouldn't you say?
I can see Birmingham with wealthy and clever investment being a giant,yes.
Have we ever had an attendance of over 67,000(all be it a long time ago)? [Post edited 18 Feb 21:19]

Yeah, big City with only two clubs, ones won 20 more major honours than the other, Birmingham won a league cup, country mile behind.
What's 67000 got to do with the price of fish?, their capacity now is 29000, smaller than ours.
Charlton had 75000 at the Valley, not in the top 10 clubs in London, completely irrelevant. | | | |

I think you would find an argument to have in an empty room.Birmingham as I have already said with wealthy investment etc could be a giant,Man City weren’t considered Giants before their wealthy owners came along,think they are now,and guess what they are one of two clubs in a big city.
Charlton are irrelevant you’re right there for once. [Post edited 18 Feb 23:33]
