    Mate has just been to the club shop and asked how the sales were going.

    I hope we shift what's left.

    Think it's much less than that according to seating plan.

    Ponty and east stand close to selling out and under 200 left for West stand

    Circa 17k inc full West Stand. Circa 15k with half of it closed.

    They’ve always said the West Stand will open up if demand is required. We usually get a fair few pay on gate too.

    If demand is there, the full West should open. A game like tomorrow isn’t about covering extra stewarding costs, it’s about bums on seats and making some noise.

    About 13 n half I reckon, taking into consideration the " no go" area at the north side of the east stand ( grand that is)

    Hope the demand is there to have to open the full west stand.

    Looks like they've opened that block and sold most of them, just some random seats left in it.

    Looks like they'll have to open the north side of the west for pay on the day.

    Just had a look at the seating plan - a few minutes ago there were
    43 left in the East Stand
    24 in the Ponty
    158 in the West

    So a total of 225 left

    I am sure they could release the 100 seats on the right hand side lower tier of the East near the away fans if needed
    I think there are also free seats behind the directors box in the West upper C that are not normally on general sale - but cant see more than 50 there so dont see where 600 comes from unless they think they can open West upper B thats another 400 or so.

    Wont they open the gate at the back for access to the toilets? Otherwise the stand wants bulldozing.

    If we don't open the full west stand tomorrow so people have to get turned away (as we are so against splitting the north stand) then the stand should be demolished.

    Or made usable again :) I dont think there is a fundamental reason why it cant be used that cant be easily fixed - ie put some bogs in again I dont think there is anything structural
