Attendance on Thursday?

[Papasmurf]

What is it looking like? Hopefully a sell out.

Has anyone been counting availability of late?

 

[Monty_greenock34]

Id recon over 40,000 ticked the all home cup games section alone

 

[Korova Milk Bar]

Looking to be a sellout. Hopefully anyway.

 

[rangeral]

Id recon over 40,000 ticked the all home cup games section alone

around 26k for that I am sure

 

[wilse]

I'm away so giving my ticket to a pal.

 

[weetam3106]

I’m away but giving my ticket to my brother who is back from South Africa. Last game he was at was January 2nd 1971... he got home eventually, and when he did he didn’t even know what had happened. My parents were besides themselves with worry. I think he will see a few changes

Good luck to him, imagine that could be emotional for him.

 

[LoganBear]

40k would be exceptional, playing the 3rd best team from gibraltar sandwiched in between all the friendlies, at this time of year + the tie is over already over.

 

[Marstonbear]

If there are still say 10k tickets left I think we might struggle to shift them given the tie is over

Wow. That is going to be such an emotional day for him.

 

[ibroxjohn76]

Anyone know if it’s gonna be televised? I’m based in London and can’t make it

 

[Arkanoid]

I'd say 40k although the true no. may be smaller if like me you ticked the option on the ST but cannot actually make the game

 

[VGM]

I'll never take watching us in Europe for granted ever again.

 

[welshbear]

RTV should have it on

This

 

[london_bluenose]

Club Deck is looking pretty sparse.

Are St Joseph's taking any tickets for the game?

 

[JerseyLoyalist]

40k plus will be a good attendance.

 

[london_bluenose]

Probably not, Rangers will want to maximise ticket sales.

 

[Bluebrox]

I'll go 36k

Wow, that is quite a story.
Good luck to him I hope he has a great time back at Ibrox
But just wow!

 

[bilkobear]

This is a great game to take youngsters to as their first evening game.
I hope a lot of young Bears get a chance to do so.

 

[The Predator]

I'm on holiday this week so was able to but my tickets for the game. Looking forward to it.

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Over 45k currently sold PS.

Heading towards a sell out.

 

[GodStruth]

Over 45k currently sold PS.

Heading towards a sell out.

That is outstanding

 

[Monty_greenock34]

around 26k for that I am sure

That all. Uck well, wishfull thinking on my part.

 

[MearnsUnionist]

That is outstanding

Especially when it's in the middle of peak summer holiday time mate.

 

[millar2318]

Is it confirmed on TV anywhere yet?

 

[Bluebrox]

Superb mate.

I'd almost want to be with him on Thursday just to witness his reaction.

Great stuff.

Higher than I thought - nice one.

Still good as some will never attend extra pay games on a regular basis even then those that have signed up some will hope that we don't get home cup games

Aye its still superb

 

[MearnsUnionist]

I can't make it. If anyone wants a ticket then PM me your address and I'll post it out to you for free

Class mate.

 

[dh1963]

A crowd of more than 40k is incredible given all the factors that could stop folk going.

 

[Vote For Pedro]

I’m saying full house and about 500 who forget their paper ticket!

 

[DougieJones]

Here’s hoping we really put the foot down, would love to see a return of the 8-0 Valletta type scores you used to get in the 80s.

 

[giogaddi]

I'll go 36k

Will be reduced to 33k when all those in fake tops are turned away

 

[Gogso]

Club Deck is looking pretty sparse.

Get to use my new CD ST seat for the 1st time

 

[ThomasMRFC]

Might be 45k tickets sold as above but with it being a Thursday night and the tie over I reckon actual attendance will be around 35k as some who ticked the box might not bother to turn up

 

[Skoosh1872]

Great stuff. Haven’t been at either friendly so looking forward to first game of the season for me.

 

[LoganBear]

Over 45k currently sold PS.

Heading towards a sell out.

Seriously?

Thats even shocked me

 

[Rich Uncle Skeleton]

Shkupi last year was only a few thousand away from full.

 

[weetam3106]

Wow, that is quite a story.
Good luck to him I hope he has a great time back at Ibrox
But just wow!

I’m sure it will be quite an experience and with a 40k+ crowd I hope he gets the full experience ;-)

To those saying emotional. I’m not so sure that he looks upon it that way. He left Ibrox that day as normal. Gotta remember there were no phones, social media or instant information. He left with his mates and went home via a boozer no doubt. I was only 6... even so, I’m delighted to give him my ticket and welcome home back to our hoose.

Perfect opportunity to give the tickets away to people who dont often go with kids

4 of us comming up from West Cumbria

 

[MrSteve83]

43,638 I’ll go

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Club Deck is looking pretty sparse.

3 middle sections are pretty much sold out and the others about half full, so hardly sparse mate.

 

[GLAGAZ]

Didn’t take my ST option for the game but booked a seat in the Copland to sit near some colleagues. Not been in that stand in years.

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Maybe a couple of thousand from down south or N.Ireland may struggle mate, but why would 10k not bother to go?

 

[Porty_true_blue]

Is it confirmed on TV anywhere yet?

Just had a look and could only find it advertised on RTV.

 

[bloodandfire]

Our support is quite simply amazing.
I honestly don't think any other is even close!

 

[Papasmurf]

Oh. Good shout.
