Enthusiasm is starting to build in the fan base, only around 160 left, but around 4,000 left for next Tuesday against Blackburn, given that they will probably only have 500 tops in the 3,000 capacity away section, as it stands the attendance will be below 25,000 |  |

Give Tuesday a bit of time what with all the messing about with fixture changing etc
But with the away section as you say being quite minimal, it will probably be around the 28/29k mark |  |

This is where the club shot themselves in the foot with the immovable layout of the away end.
I can see we may get a bit of a surge of interest in the Blackburn game, but whatever happens there will be at least 2,500 empty seats due to Blackburn wholly understandably (given late notice and length of journey etc) not having many at the game. |  |

Totally right Pat, if the Blackburn game had been played this Saturday, we would have sold out the home sections and had 2,000 seats minimum in the away section completely empty | |

We have to remember though, that yes we want every game sold.out, but all these games will.get very expensive. The semi.final tickets and whole day, preston away, then possibly 2 play off games potentially expensive trips to Hull or Boro, a play off final at Wembley, an FA cup final at Wembley. People will be looking at the Blackburn game and thinking that's the one to save money on. People will pick and choose a little bit, as this will get very expensive. The joys of being successful!!!

True.
I wouldn't be opposed at all to some kind of "Flash Sale" for the Blackburn game.
Make it £10 for adults and £5 for kids and fill the ground.
I accept that people who have already bought tickets may feel aggrieved, but we want to fill the place, and also give more fans an opportunity to be involved in these great times. | |

I wouldn't be opposed to that either. We want a full stadium. I.suppose of someone has bought a £30 ticket, they would then start asking for a refund of.£20 but Saints could be creative to get more fans om the stadium. Give tickets to local businesses, schools.etc, tickets for a fiver. [Post edited 9 Apr 16:19]

With a trip to Wembley coming up and if things go to plan another one in May? All of a sudden this game has become more attractive. I don't usually do evening games as its a pain in the arse getting down after work and getting home very late but I only have 3 games on my purchase history for this season and the more games attended, the easier and earlier I can potentially buy a ticket for the City game
Can't imagine im alone in thinking this so I wouldn't be surprised if others do the same as me and come on Tuesday when I hadn't planned on doing so |  |

the 4,000 empty seats have in the main been there all season, the 26,000 hardcore will be there, these seats need to be filled by those that have hardly been this season | |

Fair point, and I agree, they were all there for the Arsenal game, and very passionate they were too. But don't turn up for Blackburn and QPR at home. Some of the faces I have never seen before in my life, were around me for the Arsenal game, and they were the loudest, most.passionate fans that I have never seen before at league games! They clearly.like the big games I assume! [Post edited 9 Apr 23:02]
