And as of 5pm today (Friday, October 14), the total number of tickets sold has surpassed the previous record of 21,764 who watched Town host Leeds United at the stadium on February 27, 2010.
The best so far this season was 20,595 against Queens Park Rangers , the third highest for a league game at the John Smith’s with Town’s recorded gates for the five matches so far this season having totalled 97,855.
That’s an average of 19,571, the highest since the 1970-71 top-flight campaign when the figure was 23,228.
And for those who still haven't got their tickets for Sunday's 12 noon kick-off, there is still around 1,000 available - largely in the Fantastic Media Stand Lower Tier with supporters urged to purchase them as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
