Welcome to Guess The Crowd for 2019/20 and here we go with Aston Villa v AFC Bournemouth, at 3 pm on Saturday 17th August!
Let’s start as we mean to go on and pick off the Cherries!
The Brucie Bonus is up for grabs until 5.30pm this Saturday. 11 huge points could be yours if you post a spot-on Guess for the crowd against Bournemouth before Kickoff against Spurs! What a start to your season that would be!
And how many more exclamation points can I possibly use in this, the inaugural post of the first round of Guess The Crowd for this season back in the Premier League!!!
Guesses only in here, please; any questions go in the ‘GTC Divisions, points and bonuses’ thread for 2019/20, in ‘Match threads and player ratings’.
Hurray!
UTV!

Reports of a match being sold out don’t necessarily mean anything significant, as those of us who have played GTC before know to our cost!
Anyway, this is a Guess thread, so anything can happen, as they say on Stingray. ;)
Are you going to have a go, Dublin?

Do we know if upper Trinity is open? ;)
Anyway I am hoping that we have also sold out the hospitality capacity and will therefore guess at 42500.

This game is going to be fun if we sell out every game and they put the same maximum attendance figure up every time.

They haven’t repeated themselves so far. It’s er, one of the fings what keeps this competition edgy! On with the guesses!

Sharp crowd-related musings, Villatillidie1982. I’d add,
Do they have room in their car for 3 or 4? And, more worryingly, for fans from the 70’s;
Might Ted McDougall still turn out for them?
The answers to these and other Bournemouth related questions will be settled through judicious use of binoculars next Saturday at 3 pm!

For some anoraks, like me, 39,339 and then 39,372 before dropping back to 39,217 will being back memories. Where did those seats appear from and then disappear to.
-
Capacity increased when we "improved" the Trinity Road Stand, I think. It reduced slightly when we had to install extra cameras for the brief 3D fad. Since then we have rarely had a capacity crowd due to the opposition not selling out (eg Burton, Blackburn, Millwall) or because of police segregation issues (eg Blose, Norwich, Baggies in the playoffs).
-
Those capacities were before the Trinity was rebuilt though, so seats appeared and then disappeared.
And main reason was we gave away sides less in division 2, and left a block of seats empty between them and the North.

2017, don’t think so
Lou, that’s a response to a question, and not my guess !!
-
I wonder if any seats have been lost for the installation of the larger, VAR-friendly video screens?
Seem to remember some talk about seats in the lower Holte, Trinity side not being sold.
