I had visions of people queueing round the block for this historic final game. Silly me! When I got there the queue consisted of four people. I know it was early but don't tell me that the crowd on the final day will be a couple of thousand. I hope people will abandon Blackpool. Preston, Burnley etc. for the day and make it an occasion to remember.

All will be made clear when we play Aldershot.
Morecambe FC wrote:For information: all areas of the ground for our very last game v Aldershot on Saturday May 8th are selling very well. As everyone is aware the first day of general sales was yesterday when almost 500 tickets were sold. We have only just started to go through the postal applications and judging by the postmarks people will be travelling from all over the UK to watch the last League game to be played at Christie Park.
When we add the extra tickets bought by the current season ticket holders and sales from today I fully expect sales figures to be pushing 1,000. When you take into account the away allocation, season tickets, sponsors and guests. There will be approximately 3,400 left to sell
We have had season ticket holders from Blackpool and Preston buying tickets, as their League season finishes the week before on the 2nd May. Following the pieces covered on Look North West and Radio Lancashire we have had enquiries from Burnley and Blackburn who both finish their respective seasons on the 9th May.

Self Fulfilling Prophecy!
If we say that we will have a sell out and encourage fans to get down to the club now to secure their ticket then tickets will sell.
For every post that goes up on here saying it won't sell out and we won't get a big crowd, there will be a fan that won't bother buying in advance.
Lets get a bit of momentum going, on here, in the pubs we drink in, where we work. If we buy our tickets now, and tell everyone we know that we think they should get theirs while they can, you create a buzz and that itself could make this a sell out.
Stop being negative and lets all get behind this.

on that basis, IMO it's going to be a very big attendance.

probably
