I agree. Pretty sure you used to have the entire away terrace (as it was back then) and half the West. That was about 2,000. Obviously the away terrace is now seated but still don't understand why you haven't been allocated one and a half of the four sides as usual. First derby at The Deva we had 2,000 tickets. This was reduced to 1,400 for the Friday night F.A Cup Sky Connolly Show. Since then it has always been 1,200. We've got 1,030 and around a dozen disabled spaces. So basically, we've lost 3 and a half coachloads of fans for the derby. I can only guess that you'll see the segregation from the Chester fans in the East Stand in the Wrexham end behind the goal widened. The fact that the Wrexham allocation at Chester has been reduced alone adds controversy to the match arrangements. Seem to recall something mentioned at a CFU meeting about the police wanting to keep supporters separated in different stands. Wouldn't be able to that in the West stand. The police call the shots in these situations. Problem is, as usual, they get a lot of decisions wrong. It would make far more sense to give Wrexham half that stand, and block off part of the away end, close to H block. Let's hope this passes off without any trouble, and the bubble free games can continue. For all true supporters. |

They will do well to steer clear of my compatriots in P Block. Some right moody individuals in there.

You’d swear the way the goats are going on that theyve got the support of Man Utd ! They have only completely sold out at our place twice out of the last 4 years and I remember the bt game they only brought 7/800 ! That is shocking for a team with the backing of half a country , nearest other welsh clubs are down south , Cardiff , Swansea and Newport so they should be getting 15k a week ! Tranmere sell out 1200 every time with just season tickets ,it’s only because they are doing well and we have been awful there is added interest for this game .Would Wrexham take 1200 fans to tranmere if they made the start we have had and were in the relegation places? No way! Yes they have better support than us but given the catchment area they have to be 3rd In the league and only get 4K at home is poor ,we would get 3k if we were challenging .Fewer of them reptiles I can possibly see at our place the better , mind you they aren’t exactly the loudest set of fans so won’t hear them much anyway.

Frankly, who cares!
Does the fact Wrexham have more fans than us make us small time? Does the fact that Man U have more fans than Wrexham make them small time? Of course not!
Wrexham will always have the advantage over of us of partisan Welsh support without, as Johny9 says, rival Welsh sides on their doorstep.

This is the point I make all the time. They’ve got no real Welsh competition for fans. It’s EASY to support Wrexham if you’re from N. Wales.
We on the other hand, are competing for fans with the two Manchester clubs, the two Liverpool clubs as well as a range of smaller clubs from the surrounding areas in what has to be one of the most saturated areas for football clubs in the world I’d have thought.

As I’ve said I don’t really want to get in a pissing competition over attendances.
But to say just because we are the only team in North Wales (even though you play in Flintshire) we should get massive gates, but in the same breath say you struggle because you share a catchment area with Liverpool, Man Utd, Everton etc. Is a bit silly. You are aware we are 12 miles apart? So it’s the same catchment area.
Most people in North Wales support the “big clubs” unfortunately. You may say that what are proud welsh people supporting English clubs for? While I agree to an extent. I’m sure you have many welsh supporters in your ranks.

Are you really saying that you and us have the same catchment area? People in north wales an hour or 2 away like Aberystwyth / porthmadaog who are football fans will probably support a prem team but being a proud Welshman they will also have an affinity to their closest welsh team won’t they , and because half our ground is in Wales you really think that team will be us ?!

Most people in north Wales support United, Liverpool and Everton.
Welsh teams, especially Bangor, Caernarfon and Rhyl all get a good local support too.
Wrexham catchment area of NE Wales would be very similar to Chester's catchment area of CWaC.

Don’t wrexham have supporters buses every home game from Rhyl  You honestly think Wrexham who are the only professional league/ex league welsh club for 3/4 hours have the same catchment area as chester who are surrounded by English football league / prem clubs have the same catchment area?! Yes north walians will support the prem teams but they also have that national affinity to Wrexham that Chester havnt got to attract the wider public , surely you must see that |

It was quickly scrapped. Those that support United, Liverpool and Everton. There's 99% chance that they'll be at the pub at 3ko shouting at the TV than being at Wrexham. There my be a couple of Wrexham fans here and there all over. But it's hardly swathes getting the train a 2nd bus in every game. 90% of those at the match will be from Flintshire and Wrexham. Chester get a good following from Wales too. Particularly Saltney, Broughton, Deeside and Buckley. How much of the crowd is based in Wales??!! |

Obviously nobody is suggesting that no one in north Wales is supporting Premier League sides, what we're saying, which is self-evident, is that Wrexham is the ONLY league team in the region.
We're competing with far more teams for support than you are. Are lads from Colwyn Bay or Rhyl more likely to go & watch Tranmere or Wrexham? Tranmere is closer & so is Chester but if they aren't PL or WPL fans then they'll be Wrexham won't they?
We do have a fair few Welsh fans I believe but they're all from the Chester area of N. Wales (if that makes sense).

Wales (if that makes sense). We've been in the non-League for nearly a decade bonzo. There's plenty of other football in North Wales to watch though. www.welshpremier.co.uk/ That aside, Chester & Wrexham do have to compete with The premiership, Championship, League's One & Two surrounding us. When Wigan were in the Premiership, they're cheapest season ticket was @ £245. Every other week you could see top flight football and teams. If you wanted to.. This time next week the game will be finished. Hopefully it's a cracker for those forced to watch it on BT Sports because they couldn't get a ticket for a game which'll have maybe a couple of thousand empty seats. |

I was quite clearly referring to the English league, but you knew that. Yeah there is & some people will watch their local team no matter how shite the level but most support professional teams which means that (as I said) if they aren’t PL or WPL fans in North Wales then they’re far more likely to support Wrexham than Chester or Tranmere. |

I don't think I've ever met a fan who says they support Wrexham coz they're Welsh.
We've probably got more regular fans who come from Shropshire than North West Wales.

Can you honestly say, hand on heart, that Chester's attendances went down after they moved from Sealand Road less than one mile away to Bumpers Lane? In the five years before you left, almost to present day, they changed very little. The last couple of seasons though it has been noticeable that the attendances have dipped a little. |

I don’t see the problem with the tickets. Wrexham have struggled to sell over the last few years, take into account the bubble has put people off. The comments above are quiet amusing. Wrexham are non league, rotten decaying stadium, best players are ex Chester. Enough said.😄

Depending on the safety certificate and segregation it's been pretty close or we've hit it, since we've been down here. 8k+ v Grimsby (league), Brighton (FAC) And over 9,000 for the Luton play off game. If the club is doing well more will come. Didn't you have 5,000 for a match in the division below? |
