Fucking stupid game played in stupid fucking weather. We go again UTG.

Not seen an away following as small as Brentford's tonight for years, even back in the League One days I can't remember a following as low. Credit to the ones that did though, a long way to come on a Tuesday night and probably cost them a fortune.

Hope you enjoyed

Think he's changing his loyalties, in its early stages so he went in the away end as he is still in denial
Will soon no longer be called Roversfan2001 will be something like Northender2017.
Will deny ever supporting Rovers, think the Venkys are great and wil talk about never ending love of Preston.

 

[roversfan2001]

At least your shite banter is original.

Oh wait...

Thinking back through the years, Wimbledon for midweeks games.

Sold out for hillsborough needing 37500 loyalty points I bet forest sells out quicker next week although other than northampton last year with 1k less tickets no match has ever sold quicker.

Plus a bunch in the home ends, including my folks. Allocation and policing was outrageous.

 

[Brad-Owl]

156 Brentford at S6.

Is that including the one on the lower level, back row on the left there? And the one at the bottom of the steps.

General sale starts in morning for us, just a few hundred tickets left for South Stand and Grandstand above.

We're all fucking mugs getting ripped off.

Agree though I've got a season ticket.

Just had a count up and its 174 in South Stand and 134 in Granstand.

I wonder if it would sell out if you were allowed to fill the ground to the capacity, I'm not sure we'd sell 6 or 7k like we used to get at £42 or on the other foot could you sell another 6 or 7k if we were still allocated what we have now.

Yes it would, despite the complaints from Blades fans, I would still expect you to sell out 6 or 7k despite the stupid pricing policy.

You're on the ball, 8 minutes even quicker than I expected.

I'm not sure it would with both sets of fans, if we're still in same league next season then definitely not.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

First Derby in 6 years it would easily sell out in home and away end, shame there'll only be 30,000 there.

 

[Sheffsteel]

I went to the famous Boxing Day match 1979 in division 3 when the crowd was over 49K, stood on the back of Wednesdays Kop, the steps separating the gangways had totally disappeared because they were packed and only being 13 I couldn't see a damn thing. So took it in turns stood/ balancing on a fence, even then I could only see half the pitch.

Shame it wasn't like the old days, with normal pricing there' d be a 50-60,000 demand for this match.

The SY Police don't want away fans at Steel City derbies. That away end holds 7,000 but we only have 2,200 tickets. The stadium capacity is nearly 40K but it'll be a 31K sell out, madness.

Beat the record set by us for that division.
WMP are the same regarding away allocation(2100) this season, but at least we don't have to net off vast areas of seating.

Nothing to do with syp our allocation. That's all they get at bramall lane so that's all we are given by them they could have another 600 at the lane in the lower tier that is syp fault, but difference is we will have fans in the upper tier at bramall lane and will be full where as leppings lane will be empty.

 

[blademan89]

I fully agree , one match at hillsborough early 2000s there was 27k there with 7.2k away fans. And I think only about 25k at bramall lane one year too.

 

[blademan89]

Lower tier open now to Wednesday fans good luck sitting under away fans at a derby game, fuck that.
