Thanks for the comments lads, it's my small sad way of keeping in touch with you guys and gtfc. Yes it's never accurate when it comes to the 'official attendance' but its a bit of fun and even if it helps someone whos not too tech savvy see quickly and easily whats roughly available or if it is to drive a couple of people to buy tickets and get down to BP then it's worth while..

For what it's worth Swindon have been given less than 400 tickets annitially which they haven't sold out of yet. So I'm guessing around 300 away fans but that is a pure guess.

Do you know what, you're probably right. But, if it's OK with you ofcourse, I think I'd like to continue. Is that OK?


Keep up the good work fella 👏👏👏👏

There's 3 left in The Upper. Don't know if the other 2 were "release my seats" since you looked.

I wonder if the club would release info on tickets sold for all the home games ? So we could figure out the disparity between the announced attendance v seats sold . My guess is 700-800 average per game no shows but it would be better to have the factual figure though  .

Many months ago Debbie Cook said that on average 10% of ST's don't turn up, so that's about 600ish per game on average.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

To solve the issue of people buying season tickets, not turning up and not releasing the seat, how about this:

If you don’t attend at least 12 home games during the season (so turning up yourself or releasing it) you don’t get first dibs on reserving the same seats for the following season.

Haven’t thought this through, btw!

It would be better if all clubs declared the actual attendance rather than tickets sold. Clubs could include no-show data in their annual report for information. I don’t know how many clubs are left like Town. Some are easy to spot by looking at their attendances in mid week when there are likely to be more no shows, I don’t think there are many left like us though. Port Vale are one - they have more STH than us but have had declared attendances as low as 4.5k this season.
