Very local derby, 30,000 in attendance, on the back of our best season probably ever. I''m amazed that less than half of our season ticket holders have snapped up tickets.

Agreed. As a rule of thumb, must clubs in L1 & L2 take c.5-10% of their home support to away matches across the course of a season.

O’s average tickets sold last season was 7,844 so removing Devlin’s dodgy accounting to take it to the 6,800 we all know it really is, O’s would take anywhere from 340-680 across the season.

Chuck in its a London derby, first match of the season (and in a higher league) then I think anything over 2,000 is incredibly impressive.

Regardless, it will be a good day out and I’m looking forward to the short tube journey to North Greenwich and then walking to the ground, doing a few boozers along the way.

Indeed. Big local matches or ‘derby’ games.

Hartlepool, Mansfield etc sees the 350-700.

We took 9,000 to Arsenal?

That evening is all very hazy but sure it was only about 5,000.

Still 9k & we've always had 2 club fans. We really need to grow our 1 club fanbase

Can you please confirm this? There's no way we had 9,000 tickets. If we had, I wouldn't have to have gone to the lengths I did to secure one.
