    We’ve got ours but can’t see it. I reckon 10k but would love to be proved wrong.

    All I know of from reading the chron. 2/5/25 Simpson said they had passed the number of the first fight. (No indication by how many). But hoping they will sell out.
    We've got 13 between the group of us.

    If you go to the BFC ticketing site And select from the map. Open up and it shows seats available.

    The majority of the East is sold out and a large section of the floor. I reckon it'll have easily passed 10k, though I think they're struggling to sell out. It was reported that 66% of tickets had been sold in the first 24 hours. It seems like the cheapest and most expensive tickets have sold well, but the ones inbetween they're struggling to shift.

    As an aside, the "celebrity match" coming up appears to be a commercial flop. I reckon there's less than 100 tickets sold looking at the map. Maybe even less than 50.

    Be interesting the amount of support coming over from Italy. I hope the barnsley public welcome them as befits our town.
    Re the celebrity game I think you will see the vast majority pay on the day, weather permitting, Its not as though we will sell out.

    I’d be amazed if there’s many Italian’s there. Probably a few family members, gym mates & maybe a few close friends but it’s a minority sport in Italy. Agree about welcoming them though.

    Not surprised about the celebrity match. Oakwell seemed a really random place to host that.

    To be fair, I can understand the celeb match flopping. You need actual celebrities there for one.

    It's already announced that he's on the undercard. Boxxer do a terrible job for me at hosting their own shows, never a great undercard unless they're in collab with Matchroom or Queensbury.

    It's part of a "travelling celebrity circus" playing at 11 grounds over the summer raising money for charity.

    Based on the figures mentioned at the last FAB meeting, a good proportion of the tickets had sold a month ago, so I reckon it's going to be a good turnout.

    Waiting to see Fev rovers get to Wembley as it's RL Challenge cup and 1895 cup that day. If we lose on 18th I buy tickets for boxing and know a few more from Fev will do
