Yes or No ?

Away ends should be full every game.

Not a simple yes or no question.

Entirely depends on how the season is going.

it would be pretty grim if we don't given what they gave us last season, we need Vinny to truly believe he is at the right place. I appreciate that's very easy for me to say stuck on the other side of the world though

I’d predict there’ll be a few teams who won’t sell out:

Bournemouth
Brentford
Luton
Fulham
Brighton (possibly)
Palace

Given the number of sell outs last season, I would say so.

If Luton gets switched it will be their 2nd away game of the Prem.
A game they will target for points.
They will sell out.

Brighton could as well. Remember it's a small away end for Prem standards.

Brighton will sell out because they'll all want tickets for their Europa games

Luton brought quite a few last season didn't they?

Depends how well we are doing. If we are bottom at Christmas then don’t expect sell outs. Obviously I hope that’s not the case

12-1500?

Only another 700-1000 to shift to Premier league fans.

We’ve sold 16,000 season tickets. So we should do

He's probably grounded enough to realise prioritising expenditure is at the fore with some people.

Our last season in the PL attendances had started to fall away as the reality of hanging in there season after season, grinding out decent results here and there, but losing more than our fair share and being spanked by at least 6 of the other teams every single time we played them and knowing we would be before we ever kicked off had (understandably) worn people down. Last season's amazing success coupled with the new style of playing and the extremely positive way we our now being portrayed in the media clearly had a galvanising effect on our attendances in the Championship which definitely outstripped our recent PL figures. That's also knocked on to brilliant season ticket sales for next term meaning we really don't have to sell many seats to be "sold out" and I'm sure we will be several times. However, I'm also sure that if things don't go great and the reality becomes a relegation fight with us in the bottom 3 or 4 and struggling, it will be a case of as you were a couple of seasons back and we'll again struggle to sell the seats. The problem with what we achieved last season is some people's expectations may well be unrealistically high.

1026 was quite respectable from a smallish club like Luton.

My memory's obviously not what it was, thought it was close to being full!
