tannerall 25,935 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 That's such a shame as in ideal world would fill it with youngsters or families etc at a big discount, but its a commercial world we operate in so have to be sensible. Cost of admin, security etc prohibitive to giving away empty seats. Think we should get that cellic crowd counter guy in and call it a 50,000 sellout for the record books though.

Whats the point in paying all the extra wages if there is going to be tens of thousands of empty seats.Im sure if everybody bought all the available tickets and there was still a demand then they would open it up.Good that some are making sensible business decisions.

I actually thought we'd be closing tiers and/or stands quite regularly when we got demoted, thankfully the crowds for league games have remained at a good enough level.
