The demand isn't there imo. Don't think it's anything to do with which stand it is. LLL is not selling because it was the last to go on sale. 

The telly thing probably soaked up the "occasionals ".

Every...and I mean EVERY football club has this. There's been loads of posts about groups of fans who've found other things to do because they've been sickened off.

 

It's absolutely amazing that we've got such an amazing fanbase left.

 

We're probably going to be 5/6 hundred short...brilliant after what we've gone through imo.

There are quite a few contributing factors IMO:

1 price of tickets

2 comparison price of tickets for following games 

3 what happened last year with the bottles etc.

4. time of the match

When tickets go  on sale to the general public they are often snapped up by mums or dads with kids. Why pay 80 quid for one game which is on the tv when you can watch it for free instead of having to cancel Sunday morning football, especially when you can go to the next game for 30 quid.

5. The time of the year.

 

This is without factoring in that many fans have spent big in the shop and maybe even donated on here or to the trust.

it also doesn’t factor in the fact we have - in my opinion- only 4 championship quality players in the squad and that we will likely get mullered. I’m surprised we have sold as many. In fact having read all of that I might send mine back. 
it’s a great effort as far as I’m concerned.

sitting in the LLL is a big factor.

Weathers probably a factor as well with light rain and cold forecast and lll being uncovered

Genuinely think a lot won't come cos they are fully expecting us to get mullered and don't want to be there to witness it.

I didn’t want to dwell on that one too much but yeah, they have two final chances to avenge Boxing Day and this is the prime one. After this season the next time we see them we won’t be a wounded animal for once.

Yeah I was surprised by that. 5 points clear at top and look nailed on for promotion. Also a local derby and the away end looked sparse too.

Sure I saw there was a boycott of the game - £45 per ticket apparently - although I suppose our cheapest tickets for the Blunts are £41.

WBA are boycotting due to the rip off prices.

We disagree then - fair do's.

All I can say is that, if I didn’t have a season ticket and all that was left was  LLL under United supporters, I would not go. But surely we could have sold more in the North and South, leave LLL empty and still meet SAG requirements?
