16,000

We have been managing to get just about 16k to our first home games over the last few seasons.

Can't see that being so this time. Predictions for the officially announced (as opposed to real) number? I'll go for 14,500.

    Is Summer Holidays... A few interesting new signings... Cheaper tickets... 18,000

    Either way if we get low attendances for the first few games am sure RD will draft in some loan fans from the network to make up the numbers

    Don't think anyone will bother. If they do RD and the Belgium mafia will have them eliminated anyway...

    Not really a fair comparison considering Wigan are unlikely to bring many. They brought 729 at £6 last year so maybe 500 this time? Add 9,500-ish STs, maybe 2,500 home sales, 1,000 home comps. Might get to 14,000 if we win at Brentford or there is a first match bump (contrary to what people think we tend to attract bigger sales in August despite holidays), but the final figure depends to a large extent on how many are given away. More like 10-11k actually in the ground. Derby is probably a better gauge.

    Isn't the first home game league cup? Season tickets won't be counted for that, will probably be around 12k-13k

    Which part are you 'what'-ing?

    That first game is league cup (Col. U on Tuesday 12th)

    That season tickets aren't counted - they never have been before, but I am no longer a season ticket holder

    Or the 12k-13k. 'k' means thousand I could have written 12,000 to 13,000
