Over 34,000 at their game yesterday, just goes to show what a feel-good factor can do in any division.  Without getting into any second tier debate just hope it demonstrates to our owners the potential for football attendances in the West Mids.

24,000! You should go to Specsavers. The capacity is 29000.

Regardless, I think most fans should know that the capacity of the stadium isn’t able for that.

Tbf we got a higher gate than that (24k) at our last home game 

You’re right though, winning games puts bums on seats

Indeed, but nothing to do with Specsavers.

That’s where I got info,  bit embarrassing, I had heard they’d improved the ground but clearly not that much.  Still 24k in the third tier still makes a point on the potential for good match attendances in The region.

Yeah 24393. Not helped by Rotherham bringing about 700 nor the amount of home games this month post Christmas for a lot who are skint out.
Prices quite high as well. Over 30 quid for lots of seats yesterday. Then Newcastle at £35 for STH next week (£37 non STH I think) then Cambridge and Charlton at home on the Tuesday and Saturday after that. 5 home games in a month. Maybe 6 if we beat Stevenage away on Tuesday in the EFL Trophy. I’m going there and Reading on the 22nd  so as a STH I welcome the home games
