I'm told Cray's new ground only holds 1300. Easter Monday will draw a bigger than usual crowd and this game could be a title decider. Is it possible that it will sell out? Tickets are on sale now if you want to play safe.

I know 10 people who have bought tickets tonight and from what I have heard tickets are selling pretty quickly.

What is it, the socially-distanced stadium? Why would a new ground be built with such a low capacity? Doesn’t that scream unambitious?! If there’s a chance we can win the title on the day, we’ll surely bring >500. I’d like to think we’d number over 300 as a matter of course.

I'm just surprised that TFW knows 10 people 😄.
But yes, all that fuss over a 1300 capacity stadium doesn't smack of ambition.
It's going to be a mad rush to watch this game.🎯🎯

It’s probably been designed to allow for bolt ons as demand increases?

Had a quick look at some pictures and other than the seats there doesn't appear to be any other covered or terraced areas.
Hope it's a nice day 🤞🤞

I drove past the ground on the A20 on Monday expecting to see some kind of fairly big stand and there was nothing.

It almost looked more like a Kent league ground from the road.

Really pleased that Cray have got their own ground, a club with a long history and i'll never forget the warm welcome and use of their facilitates they allowed us to share when we were homeless.

Flamingo Park Capacity is 1300? I might have to get an online ticket in advance.

I've been searching around and found 1300, 1800 and 2500 as the ground capacity!!!!

I'll try and find out officially.

They had 1500 in the summer at a Psf against Spurs!!
I doubt more than that can/will get in!!
SD is correct though, everytime they apply for permission to build or extend anything the locals object!!
The Irony is though the nearest house is about 300 x yards away on the other side of the Sidcup by-pass??

Will be going not purchased ticket yet however if it looks a bit squeaky bum time closer to the game will book as I don’t want to miss out on the game !

Will be great to see Tom Bonner again and hopefully he does DFC a favour and has an off game although I doubt it, would love to have him back at DFC in some capacity when he does finally hang up his boots….

Minimum capacity required for Step 3 is 1,950, so it won't be less than that, otherwise they wouldn't have been allowed to start playing there in this division. Criteria are on page 3 of the "flip book" document in this link:

I'm not surprised 1300 was wrong, but that 1300 figure appears in several places on the internet, such as the link below. I'm shocked because the internet is usually so reliable :roll: .

Can’t put too much store in the Internets these days. Seems they’ll let anyone put any old rubbish on there :?

I heard capacity reduced due to building work.
Definitely a case for buying tickets in advance.
Only £6 for concessions.

When will Tom Bonners red card take affect? Will he be eligible for the game against us?
