Over 10,000????!!!
He means the final 2 home fixtures Bradford and Mansfield had a combined crowd of over 10k.
Ah. Makes sense. Thought he meant each game

632 Seating & 298 Standing, hopefully we get more home fans than Tuesday 2,647 should be looking for at least 3,500 but that Thursday night game going to be very difficult for some.
Give them the extra like we did for Derby county making it 1300 away fans. We won’t sell out anything between 4100 and 4500 total attendance is my estimate
I don’t think giving another team more tickets when both are in the relegation area is a good idea, why give Carlisle the opportunity of the extra support they’d receive (apart from money). Doesn’t make sense to me.

The thing is that folks like me who live some distance away have to pick and choose our games. I'd scheduled this as one of my visits to HS but now I can watch it on TV so I'm coming down the following Saturday instead.

Well, we’ve been announcing that many…

Average home turnout (i.e. not counting away fans) this season is 3112.

Highest is 4060 v Morecambe, lowest was 2647 v MK.

I’d personally give them the extra section or sections if it’s doable & our fans aren’t snapping up the tickets ( if we were selling them I’d never give the away team more, But we don’t…., An extra 500 fans would mean an extra $8/10k cash injection through the gate/consessions, Why turn down free money!! Having the extra support doesn’t necessarily mean it’s helps their results in reality does it, If it did they’d be in the top 6

Its around an extra 350 standing tickets its not as though its another 1000. We will lose money now the games been switched from the Saturday the cancellation of hospitality by some is proof of that. Need to maximise revenue after being shafted by Sky with the date switch for said game.

No, no concessions for Carlisle cos they do us no favours with that ridiculous early kick off at their v us home fixture.

Agree , no need to increase Carlisle allocation. Why would we want more of them adding to driving their team on, all be it that’s not working for them over the last 30 games.

I'm sure that if the CUFC wanted to kick off at 3'clock the police would accommodate that wish.
It'll be the decision of some Carlisle supporting asshole within Cumbria police.

We are notorious when it comes to buying tickets and always seem to leave to last minute and I expect after a couple more good results the Home crowd will increase, give them nothing.

Bloody hell there's some [SwearFilter] comments on here tonight
'some Carlisle supporting asshole within Cumbria Police', if there is such a person, why on earth would he/she want the game switched?
And as far as giving us more tickets, Cumbria police will have wanted the away numbers to be as low as possible to stop hundreds of marauding Northerners flooding the town. Anyway I don't think they needed to have worried, as ticket sales actually only just reached 'general sale'. And that's because its live on Sky and a ridiculous day to play it on.

I know!!!!
we have sold out Harrogate as well the week after, I was simply trying to point out why it would be highly unlikely that we will get any more, and why a 'Carlisle supporting Asshole within Cumbria Police' would try and get the game rearranged..............jeezzzuss!!

Agree with you bluedevil the Carlisle support is brilliant and had you been offered more tickets would have sold all of them, just wish the Barrow public would support a Football League Club better.
