And 22k will mean other events are more than likely going to be there (concerts and what not!)

I know totally what you mean BUT all you have to do is get a big team in a cup, get promoted or a local derby and they seats will be filled.

IMO id rather us go for the 22 than the 15 "just incase"


What is your average gate though? Look at Wigan, they are in the Premiership and can't sell their seats, even though they are at the highest domestic level. 8,000 tickets were given away to Wigan Warriors Season Ticket Holders at their last home game. Agreed though that 15k isn't enough.

I know what you mean Nath BUT if we was in the Premiership we would attract all the west ham fans, arsenal and chelsea and all the floaters.

Averaging around 8k id say

Best to go a bit bigger IMO.

Our stadium holds 25,000. We average about 11,000 for each home game (not bad for a little place like Huddersfield in the the 3rd Division) but when were doing well all the glory hunters come down ( ) and we easily get 17,000/18,000. If we were playing Championship football and playing say L**ds we'd sell out no problem. Might as well go a bit bigger, saves adding to it at a later stage and at a bigger cost.

you should be happy the glory supporters are coming to games if you've got empty seats. Will only mean more revenue for your team so they can strengthen the squad (or finances, etc.)

Whenever York do well people flock down, when they lose you just get the real fans down. I'm not a real fan, I just go when I feel like it!

In all honesty mate I'd rather they stayed at home. I hate it when I see people at "big games" who reckon on they support us. Would much rather have a ground with people who are 100% passionate than full of cunts who are just hangers on.

Agree that we could do with the money though, maybe they should put um all in one stand out of the way

Hey Luigi,

Cheers for the add and all the support you have given me over the years, without that it wouldn't be possible.

Keep it safe
