My research tells me the actual capacity of Roots Hall is 11300 (not 12392), 2300 of these (roughly) are in the North Bank and Col Ewe are about 1000 short of selling this out. We've got another 240 to sell, so I reckon we're just over 10000 at the moment.
 
I hope everyone gets there tickets today as I can see about 20 seats left if that at the end of the day today, can't wait until tomorow as we will see around 10,800 inside the ground:smile:

I think it is slightly higher near 12k. Our largest recent attendance is 11,700 against Yeovil. Although this was approx. 15 years ago Roots Hall has not changed (other than the few seats removed next to East black). The Yeovil game from memory had a segregation.

Great mind think alike, I've been saying 10,800 for a couple of weeks now. Though, it would be nice to hit the 11,000 if possible if the club open Y and Z on the day.
 
For those who are interested, if we get 11,000 against Colchester, that would make our average home attendance over the last 4 games: 9,250.

That's a shame, is that because of facilities ie toilets and catering?

I think it's mainly to do with there being enough exits for them. It was a similar situation against Hull in the FA Cup where they only brought 1200 but we weren't allowed the NW corner because they needed it as an exit.

That's fair enough, safety comes first.

I doubt 11k will be in attendance tomorrow. More like just over 10.5k.

I think the sheffield utd and Gillingham games will be a decent gates.

If we can maintain a promotion push then maybe 7.5-8k is achievable.

The Sheffield Utd game is live on Sky so I can only imagine about 7,500... Gillingham should be a good crowd as I'd expect them to bring 2,000.
