The figure is generally in the thousands that don't turn up each week for the entire stadium, so when you consider that 500 of this theoritical 1,000 can never be sold anyway then it's quite feasible that 500 people won't be using their match/season tickets for one reason or another.
There are roughly 850 seats that are available for general sale in the South Stand for each game.
