That was with the momentum of an exciting playoff game the week before, in front of 20k+. The Nix just haven't been able to build attendance momentum this year, and have only one home game left which will be two weeks before the semi.
I predict the semifinal crowd will be less than 20k. Doloras

Nah you’ll defenitely get a ticket. Just make sure you are aware when they go on public sale. I imagine we could get upwards of 20k to the game but the tickets won’t all go straight away, especially that they seem to be planning to get them on sale in the coming week
I'd be shocked if it isn't a sell out honestly. There are a lot of long aggrieved nix fans who will be travelling in from all over NZ
I personally think the only game that would sell out would be the GF. I'm in Chch and haven't been to a Nix game in years. While I'd love to fly up for a semi final, cost of living makes it hard for many so some would probably just stay home and watch on TV. GF I'll be on the first plane to Welly though
We came damn close to a sell-out in the semifinal against the Jets in 2009/10
That Jets playoff was also off the back of the Bahrain game, WC qualification for the first time in 28 years and just a lot of general football goodwill/hype.
Playoff was also a mid afternoon kick off on a balmy early March day (7th March 2010). This time out it's going to be early May 2 months later, edging into winter.
