No 9 Derby

[andy]

Tickets sorted.

Steady stream of fans at The Grove getting them. On sale until 8 pm today with no plans for further sale dates as they may sell out today (Any idea how many we’ve been allocated, I forgot to ask)

Sold out well before 8 … 800 allocated

I'd suggest a few 'extras' are turning up for that. We only got 800 at HOME on Saturday!

800 was a good crowd Saturday….. lower league team….. not included in season ticket ….. last week people would be away before school reopens

Not sure about extras, we’d get more than that at home on a Tuesday I’d think. Blues, West Brom and Walsall all played at 3 pm on Saturday which would have impacted Saturdays attendance.

From memory there’s normally about 1500 in a competitive no9 derby game at the cricket club. So there’s a good chance we might have the majority support(my memory is rubbish so this might be a completely pointless post)

Previous attendances at Stourbr*dge CC away league matches in the last 10 years:-

26th December 2014 - 1,642
26th December 2015 - 1,813
19th September 2016 - 1,575
7th October 2017 - 2,306
28th August 2018 - 1,733

And I think that's both correct and all there is.........

This is a smart move by the clubs and the police…

Agreed, but with an average attendance at Stour around the 750 mark , and only those able to buy ticket does that mean we will outnumber them ?

Good point, possibly. It does though go a long way to stopping random trouble makers being at the game and from their sales the Police will have access to every name and address.

I imagine for the fixture at The Grove in January only people who have previously purchased Stourbr*dge tickets from their website will be able to buy away tickets too.

I’m just hoping it all goes well and is a great advert for non-league football (that we win, obvs)

Sold out now according to Stourbr*dge. Wikipedia says their capacity is 2,626.
