In years to come, our childrens children will be asking what was the first game that an opposition team brought their streaming service documentary team to a sold out Adams Park?
Future children will regard 'streaming service' like today's regard VHS. Your children's children will have the game beamed directly into their heads from space.
Just looked up the Chester game - 04/05 season. Attendance was 8.1k apparently - which makes sense as Chester wouldn't have filled the away end.
That Notts County game is very close isn't it? Given that would've been our 10k capacity days it suggests it wasn't a complete sell out. The search goes on!
Yes the excellent chairboys on the net quoted the 10,000 and how we didn't get particularly close even for the massive clubs like Leeds.
We don't really know if capacity now is 9,000, or much lower.
I think some away fans hooligans cost us a little bit of capacity in the away end, but the one way in for some reason cost some as well, even though it'd been like that since we moved here.
Here is the situation tonight, after the restricted views seats in the Origin Stand and the single isolated seats in the centre Blocks of the Family Stand and the Upper Frank Adams were added back in by the club this morning ....
I reckon 20 of those in the Family Stand are for Accessible Chair users and those who accompany them.
Well there are still tickets still available on the website. They are all isolated single seats in the Family Stand or the Upper Frank Adams or the seats that are accessible, 22 of them at the very front of Blocks B, E and H.
You do need a previous registration of an account to make a purchase.
Ha ha - very good @FmG. We may have our answer - albeit on a technicality!
Interesting (to me anyway) that it looks like we can say with some certainty that we've not sold out AP (to it's full capacity) for a regular league game this century. It's before my time but there must be examples from the 90s - that famous Slough Town game that Ive seen mentioned before for one.

Welcome to Wycombe.

Any stattos here who can tell us the last time a regular season league game (non playoffs) completely sold out for home and away fans?
Have a vague memory of a Free game v Chester one year, that was probably a sell out.
But struggling to find the exact details.

Can't find any trace of that one, maybe I made it up.
So next best guess is 2008/09, 9,625 v Notts County?
That weird one where we lost miserably, then had to hang on for a result elsewhere before promotion was confirmed.

We are not massive until there are extra crisps in - preferably cooked dragon flavour.

Space age Stattos will still know the answer
Can we all please refrain from abusing James McClean. I don’t want him responding on social media about us .
I think the best approach is to just ignore him on Saturday , but somehow I think he’s going to get dogs abuse.
The terrace back row ears prick up and they start to google to find out what enrages them...
Wasn't the Sheffield Wednesday match a few seasons back a sell out? The 1-0 win with the Obita goal.
Don’t think so, however what a brilliant day that was. The only league sell out that sticks out to me is the Reading game in 2002.

Was that the 5-2 win?
No, we lost 2-0 and they went on to win the Division 2 (L1) title IIRC. The 5-3 was a couple of seasons beforehand.
Ah yes.... it was 5-3...
And probably 99/00 season
And the Plymouth game a few weeks earlier must have been close to a sell-out as well
Just this once, I promise to have my lunch before arriving.
Is there a bike shed at Adams Park? Thinking of keeping at least one car out of the area.
I think there is still one behind the away end, @arnos_grove.
From memory I don't think any of our playoff semis at AP were close to sell outs.
MK three years ago was 8,987 (about 500 off).
Cheers I'd erased that from my memory given the opposition. There will be a fair few Wrexham in the Frank Adams won't there?

Sold out on 12 December 2020 for the 2-1 loss v Coventry. Yes it was only 2,000 of us but still a sell out

Slough was sold out and people climbed the trees outside the ground to get a look at the action.
If you had told me that we'd eventually be two leagues higher with half the crowds I'd have said "Shaddup ya face"
