We're at 8,900 approx now. 200 sold so far today and I'd expect to go over 9,000 before the end of the day. That's 700 more than we had for Wycombe already, thereby proving irrefutably that Wycombe is not a derby!
People do actually buy tickets online on Christmas Day and I'd expect another 100 or so tomorrow, maybe more? Boxing Day is forecast to be "light showers" so shouldn't put people off from coming and we do normally have good walk up business on Boxing Day. I'm predicting 9,400 home fans to be in attendance.
I've been doing a bit of research into Lincoln's away followings and they're very hard to predict. They've taken over 3,000 to Doncaster, just under 3,000 to Rotherham, and over 2,500 to Peterborough, which are all relatively easy journeys for them. They took 800 to Portsmouth, 700 to Wimbledon and only 475 to Gillingham (their lowest following this season. Recently they've taken 1,300 to Blackpool and MK, and 1,100 to Coventry last Saturday. On the basis that they had sold 400 six days ago I'm going to predict that they'll bring 800 to us, leaving us with a largest League attendance of the season (so far!) of 10,200.
Going out shortly, so won't do a further count up until late this evening, so if
@Thecurraghofkildare wants do do one in the meantime that would be great. No rest for the dot counters!!!
