BREAKING NEWS: TONIGHTS CARDIFF CITY LEAGUE CROWD WILL BE

Yeah, they had about 5000 there, I can't remember them having the Enclosure as well though. I just remember the hordes of Cardiff attacking them for what seemed like half the game. There were hardly any of them left in the ground with about 10 mins to go, as they'd all legged it to their cars/coaches/special train early.

your memory of it is much as mine is..dont remember any in enclosure and yes loads of them made a run for it early...i remember how shocked they all looked.

Taking my to grandsons and my daughter in law as well had them tickets through my season ticket for tomorrow night one of my grandsons in the school of excellence with cardiff there first ever city game what a game to pick I'm in the family stand with them tomorrow night my mate son got my ticket for the match

1976?? Strewth, I was at that game in one of the best seasons ever as a City supporter!

A fantastic 2-0 win for Jimmy Andrew's Cardiff City on our way to promotion (we finished second to a great Hereford team of that era) with goals from Doug Livermore and one of my all-time favourite Alan Campbell

Remember it like it was yesterday but they stuffed us in the away game 4-1 at The Cow Shed

Me too. Fantastic atmosphere. Hereford had a goal disallowed early on but we played superb and deserved the win. Was also at the 4-1 in Hereford. Was that the game when a small wall collapsed in our end under the pressure from all our fans?

Up to 6.30pm today 26,000 tickets have been sold

You can buy them from 8.30am tomorrow and right up to kick off, lets beat our record

I think you're mistaken, Everton were on the Bob Bank, and had a torrid time all game.

I though they had half the Bob bank with the late great Jeff Richards keeping the sides apart on his own at times. I cant remember the numbers but thought t was loads. They had about 4 special trains.

it was thousands mate and yes 4 trains all of which were attacked both from Cardiff who had chassed them down slopper rd and Cardiff who had jumped the bob bank wall on to the railway lines.

My memory is not what it should be but I'm pretty sure that they were brought straight off the trains and directly into the back of the Bob Bank. May have been the only time that happened. They probably went back via Sloper Road though.

Looking at the e ticketing map of the stadium now and seeing the lower bowl is virtually red sold out surely we will get 30,000+ now as its 28,000 without the new stand and they started selling those this morning and we still got the rest of today and tomorrow and the walk up crowd to go, this is looking like our highest home attendance since Hereford in 1976 att:35,549

I'm sure the cup game against Everton in 77 was well over 30k.

Just checked a programme for the Chelsea home game from that season and the attendance was 35,582 for the Everton Cup Match in February 1977.

I was there, great match, so biggest League crowd Gary

About 10,000 of them were Everton fans though.

I'm guessing this figure includes the 2700 off for Leeds Annis ?

They had half the Bob Bank

They were housed in a purpose built enclosure from scaffold tubes at the canton end of the bob bank . Two thousand fans is what they brought and as others have stated had a torrid time all match and were pretty much all gone with 15 minutes left. Someone put a brick through Albert lamours front room window of his house that night because of his back pass which gave Everton the winning goal

Traffic and parking is going to be a nightmare, it's bad enough in the evenings anyway.

Better leave earlier than normal, it's going to be a special night

In my memory was the dividing line between the fans was around the TV gantry, maybe even a little towards the grange end. That's certainly where Jeff Richards carried out the best policing work I've ever seen.

There's thousands in the Upper Ninian that they're holding back. They will be released as the day goes on so I cant imagine anyone who turns up not getting in.

Fair point. Lots sold in the last few days need to be picked up.

I wonder if the red seats are going to be open for fans, to use

"open for fans, to use" for what? Frisbies???

They thought they were rough, they had a terrible hiding before, during and after the game.
