You're a shit fan in my opinion.

I understand that some people can't make it or can't afford it but if you're able to go and choosing not to cause you're annoyed at the ticket price or annoyed we didn't finish top two or whatever then you're a shit fan who isn't really supporting the team.

I live 2,500 miles away and are saving my money for the final if we get there. Can I have a pass?
 
People going in a huff and not attending man :lol: if you hate the fact that we haven’t been promoted so much, why not grow up and go to the match and try supporting the team so we get promoted?

Never even crossed my mind to miss Saturday's match...uploaded my season card after the Southend match.

680 mile round trip and astronomical train prices booking at short notice, but would never use distance as a reason for missing a game (travelling from within the UK, naturally), or it being on Sky TV.

I'll be there roaring myself hoarse on Saturday and then looking forward to the 2nd leg the following Thursday.

Exactly, and, if we get there, there will be less interest for this one (it's a much bigger game, but some spent a fortune last time and can't afford now, others just not bothered etc). That's why I don't see the point in multiple sale phases, everyone who wants a ticket will get one. Let SCHs go first just to absolutely guarantee their ticket and so they can choose where to sit (hope they handle that bit better than last time mind, I went on in the first day of sales and there was nowt in the lower tier, then they released it later after we'd already got ours in the upper tier), but then just allow pretty much everyone else who has been this season to order; if we do sell out it will be late on so doubt people who are desperate to go will miss out

IMO problem you’ve highlighted would be eliminated if system allocated seats only rather than giving the option of self selection. Allocation is what happens with all away games anyway.
 
I guess people are giving us nee chance. I was at the last Pompey game but not this time. I finish work at 6.30 Saturday in Nottingham and home just in time to watch it..

been trying for days to get a ticket, won't let me log in and trying to get through on the phone is a joke.

No, you've replied to the 1st post, which was a figure that assumed/included all ST holders. Now that ST holder priority has gone, all their seats are now available

Currently just over 20k tickets sold -

I remember being hugely disappointed at the attendance at the Crystal Palace playoff in 2004 (just checked it was 34,536). I was shocked at the time that it wasn't sold out. It is strange that the play-off semi's don't attract the biggest crowds. Is it the same at other clubs?
 
So, we are back to the hardcore support :cool:

It’s obviously not going to be a great attendance, but it would be good to get it towards our average - rather than the lowest attendance of the season :lol:

We have a history of doing it mate. For the semi final of the LC we only had 25,000 home fans. For Leicester in the LC in 98’, when we were flying, we didn’t sell out.
