CW 90+3 02/05/16 Posted 29 August 2015 Report Share Posted 29 August 2015 Crowd looked spot on today. Derry nowhere near full. Cox with hundreds and hundreds of empty seats that were full v Hearts. Main Stand not overly busy. Disappointing but entirely expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troodee1893 Posted 30 August 2015 Report Share Posted 30 August 2015 A half full stand always looks more than the actual figure. A stand 80% to 90% filled actually looks full. That is why clubs can sell to the full capacity on ticket games or where seat numbered tickets are sold but only to c. 90% patg because the final 10% can never find seats. From main stand the crowd looked well down on the previous 2 games and seemed accurate to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 90% capacity doesnae wash with me - red tape gone mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we'll get to the stage where anybody actually struggles to find a seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attilio Posted 30 August 2015 Report Share Posted 30 August 2015 Should stewards not help "customers" find a seat? Which is what the young lassie steward asked me when I went into the main stand yesterday. Very polite and with a smile. Exactly the opposite to what goes on in the South Enclosure it appears.

Why do they need to find a seat. They have a season ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty worrying. Next two home games wont exactly have them queuing round the block either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troodee1893 Posted 30 August 2015 Report Share Posted 30 August 2015 Why do they need to find a seat. They have a season ticket. Not everyone has a season ticket. What I was posting about was stands where punters can enter by handing over cash for entry to sit anywhere in the stand not allocated to a season ticket holder. All clubs have this problem unless a specified seat is allocated. A stand holding a couple of thousand of looks full with less than 1800 in it. A spare seat between two occupied seats is very difficult to see from the end of a row by the customer and steward alike. That is why all clubs reduce capacity in stands in these circumstances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
