ewerk 31195 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Free ticket Geordies - Subject to availability, anyone buying an adult ticket on Saturday from the NUFC Box Office will be able to bring two children under 14 for free. This offer is for selected areas of Level Seven in the Milburn Stand and supporters must again enter the ground between 3.45-4.30pm. While I understand the sad face, I think this is excellent. Exactly the kind of thing Freddy the Hutt wouldn't contemplate. It's effective marketing, the kids are the next generation of match goers so we may as well get them in the routine for free if we've got plenty of empty seats for the game.

JawD 99 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Dunno what the figure was, more spaces around the directors box than anywhere else. Over 50k though Id reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM4 0 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Yeap, 51,049 it was. Was always going to be something like that. It's happened before, an announced slight drop, and then next day almost a full house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free ticket geordies helped boost the crowd on the day, but I'm not having 51000. You could see huge swathes of empties in Milburn Level 7, and beside me alone there was 5 empty seats.

JawD 99 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Nah, milburn L7 only had big gaps in the top L&R corner which is always the last to fill. Apart from that it was the directors box that looked at about 50%. 51k sounds about right to me like though I had no view of leazes L7 though Id imagine that was pretty full.

You up there these days? No but I could see it. I get a great view of it on the way for a piss. I actually misread it and was thinking of the Milburn L7 though. I'm still in the NE Corner.
