The Blackburn Replay fixture was removed from sale at 5pm on Monday (matchday on Tuesday). The sales profile for the fixture therefore follows.
Summary:
The Club announced an allocation of 4000+ tickets had been provided. More would have been available (up to 7354) if we needed them, but realistically we were only ever going to need part of the lower-tier for a 'replay' fixture, midweek, in December.
- The Club retained a total of 146 seats for Club allocation and steward use (initially this was higher, but some retained seats were 'released' back at General Sale level), presumably this number did not include any Ballot allocation as this was clearly never going to sell out.
- There were 48 wheelchair / assistant seats.
- A total of 3124 tickets were made available for purchase for across Member Sales (a further 1059 were allocated, but not release to sale).
I forgot to take note, but I'm pretty sure that Blocks S04 and S03 were on-sale initially, with Block S02 added at 5+.
Block S04 (the final block of the lower-tier was never 'released' due to lack of demand.
Per Window Sales:
- 562 (13.44% of allocated seats) seats sold in the 35+ window.
- 254 (6.07%) seats sold in the 30+ window
- 137 (3.28%) seats sold in the 25+ window
- 161 (3.85%) seats sold in the 20+ window
- 99 (2.37%) seats sold in the 15+ window
- 269 (6.43%) seats sold in the 10+ window
- 95 (2.27%) seats sold in the 5+ window
- 69 (1.65%) seats sold in the Season Ticket window
- 962 (23%) seats sold in the General Sale window
- 516 (12.34%) 'released' seats remained unsold
- 1059 (25.32%) seats were never released for sale
Points of Note:
* Per Window sales summary considers only the lower-tier as our 'full allocation'.
* Sales for this fixture are pretty closely aligned to the previous mid-week Hull fixture (pretty close to Bristol City too), maybe suggesting that purchasing the cheap ticket just to get the extra APP isn't as large a factor as some expected. The proof will be in looking for a sparsely populated crowd though...
* Overall sales volume is about 60% of the initial fixture.
* Sales appear strong at General Sale, comparative to the original weekend fixture. How many of those are point-hoarders and how many seats will actually be occupied, remains to be seen.
