Anyway, no team has scored more than four against Burton in the league this season, and we haven't exactly been prolific scorers so I predict that on Monday we'll score one or two or... zero ! (Boo). Have a bit of faith, 3-1 Villa, Kodjia x2 and Grealish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted December 22, 2016 Moderator Share Posted December 22, 2016 Will this be the 4th highest attendance in the country on boxing day? The atmosphere will make this aa cup final for Burton, we're going to have to be right on our game. I see us winning 1-0, possibly 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely to be either 4th or 5th, close between us and Chelsea for 4th. Theoretically we have the higher capacity so if it's sold out and everyone shows up then we should be 4th highest attendance in the country. Very impressive given our current position and recent history. Edited December 22, 2016 by dnmacf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamingsombrero Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) If we get an early breakthrough can see this being our biggest win of the season so far. My concern is that a big crowd means a tetchy crowd and that will filter through to the pitch. If we don't hit the ground running it could be a disappointing afternoon.

Still it should be at least over 40,000 which is a great effort. Another point- since when did Villa have restricted views? We don't have any pillars in any stands?

Brumstopdogs Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 2-1 to Villa but expecting a tough game. Hopefully we'll deliver in front of the masses - come on you Villa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted December 22, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) Genuine question: is there an amount that classes as 'sold out' because there must always be a few tickets left...? Would 225 out of 40k be classed as sold out? Either way that's great, a full house at VP is a thing to behold.

I guess if it is in the away end and the away team have already bought the tickets and are left unsold, that is counted as sold tickets? Not sure tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure tbh. It's a minor detail, but in the EFL the away club doesn't buy tickets, they sell tickets to their supporters on behalf of the home club. Any unsold are then returned to the home club, so they don't count as sold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get restricted views on the first couple of rows in the North Stand Lower as you are at pitch level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno if they restrict the view of the playing area, as I refuse to go in that stand. Also there's no seats placed next to most of them, presumably because of the pillars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
