West Ham have already broken a new record by selling the greatest number of tickets for the first round of the Carabao Cup against Portsmouth on Saturday 8 August.
As of noon yesterday , over 50,000 tickets have been sold for the domestic cup game at the London Stadium, which will be the Hammers’ first game of the season.
At lunchtime yesterday , 11,500 tickets remained on sale, with prices as low as £1 for children and £10 for adults.
West Ham Fans Snap Up Cup Tickets
Portsmouth quickly sold out their allocation of 9,000 and, allowing for a segregation zone of around 1,250 seats, it suggests that over 41,000 West Ham supporters have snapped up tickets.
With 10 days to go before the game, we could see many of the remaining 11,500 tickets sold before kick-off.
Record Attendance In Sight
Leeds United recorded the highest ever League Cup first-round attendance on a Wednesday evening in August 2023, with 35,129 supporters turning out at Elland Road for their win over Shrewsbury Town.
A club spokesperson told Claret & Hugh yesterday: “I think we’ll have sold 60,000 by this time next week.”
Wow ‘Same Again’ you are one angry person. Angry and thick I’d say.. You’re right we havent yet bought anybody. We have a squad of nearly all Premier League standard players as it is. We don’t want to just buy any old dross out there. We have had incredible upheaval at the club and you’re already bleating on like we’re heading for League 1. Do us all a favour mate and stay away for the season will you.

Mate you’re one angry person. If I were you I’d stay away from the ground this season, negativity like that is the last thing we need. Whilst staying away from the ground perhaps you could take a bit of time improving your English, it’s not very good and you ought to consider that before making acusations of people who can wrtie far better than you of being THICK. I shouted that as you seem to like shouting.
