Rosenborg BK hosts Sandefjord at Lerkendal on Wednesday evening, but supporters fear low attendance due to the late kickoff. The match starts at 21.00, and this has sparked reactions from several supporters. Inge Braa, deputy leader of RBK's supporter group Kjernen, says that it is a completely hopeless kickoff time. He believes that it should have been possible to solve the scheduling challenges in a different way. Rosenborg's communications manager Jørgen Stenseth informed local newspaper Nidaros that only about 8,500 tickets had been sold for the match. This includes around 7,000 season tickets. The supporter group has tried to take action and has notified the Norwegian Supporter Alliance, which has taken the case further to the association. Rights holder TV 2 explains the background for the kickoff time by saying that it is a decision made jointly in the scheduling committee. Rosenborg is currently in 9th place in the Eliteserien and the club does not hide that the poor sporting results also have to take some of the blame for the expected low attendance at Lerkendal. In 2022, 9,764 spectators attended the match when RBK beat Aalesund 2-1 at Lerkendal. Excluding the coronavirus years, this was the lowest attendance in a league match in 20 years, according to NRK. Lerkendal has a capacity of 21,423 spectators. Supporters fear that it may be the lowest attendance in over 20 years. Rosenborg BK has not had a good season so far, and supporters hope that the club can turn it around. But with a late kickoff and poor sporting results, it is uncertain whether there will be many spectators at Lerkendal on Wednesday evening.
