Somewhere between the 12500 and 17500


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Family who I didn't think would be interested are suddenly seeming up for it. 17-18k might be doable.

I expect a massive push from the club PR wise , opportunities like this were wasted under the last regime I can’t see them making the same mistakes

After that game, most of NE Lincs Town and football fans will want to be there.  And exiles.  We took what 6,000 to Chelsea for a lesser game and midweek.

I've had five mates who don't go to many games already say they want to come. I reckon we could get about 17K.

Between 17,500 and 20,000 cobwebs brushed off old fans who will turn up

West Ham have a license for 60k so I expect that to be the case with this but like you point out everyone will be sorted

They got permission to expand that to 62,500 with an additional 2,500 seats in October last year, probably haven't screwed them down yet.

Im suprised so many think we'll only take forest green numbers when the mood is so different and especially with these playoff games bringing extra hype, spread the word! Lets push for 20k plus it can be done easily

I don’t think West Ham commands the same crowd Wembley would but if anyone semi-interested in Town watched today then maybe they’ll buy into it. I reckon around 12k but if they’ve win those over then maybe 15k. The lads deserve a sell out.

Didn't we take 25,000 to the Cup Final we won with a Wayne Burnett Golden Goal, or when we won the League play off there?

Every single one of my mates wants to go, so that accounts for an extra 2 people.

Agree maybe between 10-15/16K. Hopefully upper end of that. Hope it’s Chesterfield who get through as they’ll probably do a similar number, meaning that stadium could be over half full, which would be great.

I think we could feasibly take 20K but I do honestly think the current cost of living is gonna make it out of reach for a lot who’d like to go. Tickets, fuel/rail tickets, food and drink, accommodation… hundreds of pounds.

Coach trip prob most economic way of doing it.

The jubilee weekend factor will put lots off. Might be train strikes too. But on the other hand those last two matches will have inspired plenty of people

I think the main problem is the short notice for a lot of people , I know that a lot of our regular fans will already have plans in place but the big game glory hunters might not have enough time to get stuff sorted

Short notice is a problem I agree but its probably a once in a lifetime opportunity to play here anything north of 15k would be decent imo and if would could crack 2ok that would be impressive

Not sure if the prices have been announced yet but can’t see any justification for anything other than £20 adults & £10 concessions, max. Anything else is a písstake and will put people right off.

I think between 12-15k, obviously I hope we take much more, but regardless we will outnumber Solihull Moors!
