Empty seats

[KENTWOOD BOY]

sold out but lots of empty seats as i watched from pub

[higher]

Probably the seats were vacated by the fair weathers after Henrys 2nd min goal

[SouthDownsRoyal]

Empty seats? That's nice.

[Ian Royal]

I didn't see any, but then I was watching the game on the screen not the crowd.

[The 17 Bus]

Fans with banning orders perhaps?

[KENTWOOD BOY]

typical childish comment as expected - there were lots of empty seats & even more near the end

[higher]

Exhibit A yer honour.

[KENTWOOD BOY]

so who didnt bother going?

Perhaps if the club got their fingers out of their arses and instituted the buyback scheme those seats could have been filled.

Or maybe just maybe, some of those people were in the toilet or the concourse.

But if the club have sold the seats why bother?

But if the club have sold the seats why bother?

1. To make more money
2. To fill the ground
3. To avoid pointless threads like this one.

[KENTWOOD BOY]

if pointless thread why bother answering it pratt

[The 17 Bus]

1. To make more money A small amount after costs
2. To fill the ground makes no difference to income, this is a business remember
3. To avoid pointless threads like this one. will happen regardless with plastic fans

if pointless thread why bother answering it pratt

So what point are you making? the seats were sold.

[Platypuss]

if pointless thread why bother answering it pratt

To point out that it is pointless.

buy-back scheme wording fine then

[RoyalBlue]

so who didnt bother going?

Because the game was on a Sunday and quite a few, particularly kids, play football themselves on Sunday.

Thanks to Sky (sodding stupid lunch time kickoffs for the convenience of lard *rsed couch potatoes) my two kids will both have to miss the Spurs game because they both play in goal and don't want to let their teams/club down.

So expect quite a few empty seats at that game too.
