Imtellingyou Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 It looks like that all sections are available. Hard limit is set by the number of tickets sold (14,700) not the distance between the seats. When this number is exhausted then it's virtually sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First the lower level went up for sale with seat distancing and allocated seat number probably 7 to 8k and now we are moving up stairs. It’s the model they are successfully using around the globe.

jw1739 Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 Well, you can all play with the numbers. This is the seating capacity as it was when the stadium was first opened. The first four below (South End, Eastern Wing Lower, North End, Western Wing Lower) are usually referred to as "Level 1." Upper Eastern and Upper Western are "Level 3." "Corporate" is "Level 2.

There will be seats throughout Level 1 that have not yet been sold. Working off the first "David Villa" match when Level 3 was opened and there were a few people up there, that occurred at about 75% of the nominal capacity downstairs. Bearing in mind the COVID restriction I reckon that Level 3 was opened at about 7,500 seats sold, perhaps a little higher, i.e. about 40% capacity sold.

It is the number of guests or customers. So a booking in a restaurant for "6 pax" means a "table for 6." For Ticketek I believe that it does indeed mean the number of tickets sold. In my case our two tickets had consecutive Pax numbers. They were bought as the two seats on my membership. The actual attendance on the day can be lower than the Pax number, because there are always no-shows. The attendance can also be higher because there are always people who can attend who don't actually have to buy seats that are on sale - such as corporates etc. 15 minutes ago, Harrison said: Gives a rough idea.

Jovan Posted June 25, 2021 Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 1 hour ago, Tony999 said: What is the significance of the PAX? Is it a reflection of what the attendance will be? It's just something else to rustle your jimmies over, obviously it's not as important as music that gets played, what food you can buy, what colour shorts or socks we wear or even what type of collar we have. But if the PAX is low then we are in trouble as a club and we as supporters need to look within ourselves to find the reasons. If the PAX is high then we probably have too many fake plastic supporters just jumping on the band wagon not interested in our history or culture, if the PAX is where you think it should be then you need to focus your attention to another trigger point to vent. So basically the PAX is a metric any genuine fan must embrace. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the PAX is 9767 from the post someone mentioned and the capacity is 14,700, that tells me approx 5,000 tickets are left?

Plus you have non-members not on this Forum who have also bought tickets. So I suggest the number of seats left is indeed about the number you quoted. 13 minutes ago, Mr MO said: Yes that is my take around 10k sold as of last night, which we would be about right that being our member base.

I'm surprised they are selling "away" tickets. I would think that the Sydney club entourage has been pretty well isolated for quite a while.

I am no referee basher nor would I ever question a referee's bias/integrity, but how is this guy so frequently lauded by the A-League for his feats? I think the refereeing in the A-League has improved considerably personally, but this guy has had nothing to do with it. His authoritative officiating style is awful and imo, he shows little to no leniency or feel for the game, he regularly disrupts advantage plays to issue yellow cards, and his catalogue of errors throughout his time in the A-League is nothing short of frustrating to be honest. This season was the perfect time to reward a genuinely superb, confident young ref in Alex King, although Alireza Faghani and Shaun Evans would have been good shouts too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the audience wants some controversy, no point appointing a ref who understands the flow of the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
