......empty seats.

Bloody loads today. Down to 44,000, I'm hoping it's just due to the shite weather, last minute shopping and last night being the biggest piss up night before Xmas. Atmosphere suffered because of it. Dead as a door nail and not a patch on the last couple of home games.

Hopfully a full house to welcome Roberto on Boxing Day.

It wa down to the wank football on offer recently. Hopefully now Hughes has gone attendances will pick up again.

I'm sure this was the lowest today but maybe it was a reflection on what happend on Wednesday night and some thought better of it.

Christmas shopping, snow, cold, the Spurs defeat, only 4 thousand down mate, compare that to last 2 seasons and it was a good crowd

The last Saturday before Christmas has traditionally been the lowest for attendances for years.

bollocks, if any city fans pack in city when were having a bit of bad form then im not arsed if there not there.

Shit atmosphere today early on, had to sit down nearly the whole game compared to my whole block standing up all match in the last game.

I don't know what you've been watching but recently we've had some of the most entertaining games for years.

Not always convincing, but brilliant to watch.

I thought that. 500 goals scored in the prem this season and I think 400 have been scored in games involving City???

At the rate I am eating and drinking this festive season I may soon need 2 seats. Hope this helps.

Highest attendances have always been when away fans sell their 3000. maccams couldn`t we get 1500 back but City fans think better of it due to all reasons mentioned above

44,700. Capacity around 47,300. It aint 4,000 down and it's not that bad.

To be honest I thought the SUnderland section looked pretty much full. From my vantage point in CB1 it looked more like a 45 or a 46k crowd, there werent that many empty seats, i didnt think. I'd imagine the lion's share of the unsolds were probably hospitality seats, of which there are 3,000 in the COMS.

weve sold out most home games this year, prob our best season for sell outs since weve moved, plus as pointed out there have been plenty of goals and entertainement, it makes your point null and void. This is the sort of comment that caused the divide amongest fans

it was bastard cold yesterday, i was up in the north east corner in those spacious seats near the boxes. ridiclously good view. i though 44k was decent all things considered. the best thing for me was that i could basically stand and lean againts the seast, which wewre as high as stools, weirdly. No one behind me, so i could bounce up and down and keep warm. well, not warm, but not frozen solid.

and a very entertaining match too, with some horrible defending both ways. fuck me sylvinho is shite.
