2 next to me were missing today in the east stand, guessing they are season ticket holders. Do they count towards the attendance still if they dont turn up?
Just putting this out there!Did a check late last night, and another 200 since 11am yesterday, leaving us at just over 7,600 home sales. This is still 200 ahead of Morecambe at the same stage and higher than the total final home sales of all games bar Morecambe and Cheltenham.
Another 900 needed to hit the target and as I said previously we normally sell at least 700/800 on the Friday and Saturday before a game. We should be looking to top the 8,000 mark by the end of today leaving 500 on the day sales, which is about normal. With the way sales have gone so far I think we'll make it to 10,000, but only just!
Well done Scotchegg on this.We've seem loads of posts talking about our attendance and atmosphere, and how both could be better.
So why not start 2022 with some real positivity. Let's use the power of this forum to not only sell out against Sheffield Wednesday in 3 weeks, but to help make it the best experience possible to keep those fans coming back.
Bring the kids, bring the wider family. Your mates, those you work with. The bloke in the pub who's always banging on about football but never goes to games. Those who went to games years ago but have lost the habit. Anyone and everyone let's pack out the stadium with fans new and old.
But we also want to get the place bouncing. Three weeks is a decent amount of time to look at organising a fans zone, or to get the new ultras on board with displays. But every one of us can help to make the atmosphere what it is once inside the ground. It doesn't need to be overly complicated. Didn't we once get "Jim Smiths Yellow Army" sung for hours away at Rushden?! When you get thousands of people together as one, then anything and everything is possible.
@Malc @eaststandboy and @SteMerritt - do you think we can drive this on here? @OUSP Secretary is there anything we can do to support a fans zone for this game? @Colin B fancy some dot counting to show progress?
Love this quote from the Owls forum, they really do hate Darren Moore.
No disrespect but these are professional footballers, if the manager, who is clueless, asks a player to play left back he’s not asking them to open the batting for Yorkshire.
I agree about Johnson though, the poor sod is not a defender and he plays him in defence, Moore must hate him.
It was after we scored our winner so an odd reaction if he’s an Owls fan. Life ban required.Came from the east stand and ran over to the Sheffield wednesday fans. Could of been one of theirs as he wasn't wearing any yellow and blue. Rest of the crowd was brilliant though.

Why would Wednesday fan do it too?But why would you do it? So senseless if you ever want to watch your team play.

Abit like the Wycombe fan last week idiot I should imagine he would have s**t himself if a couple of Wednesday fans came on the pitch to confront him there was no need for itBut why would you do it? So senseless if you ever want to watch your team play.
