We have given scunny a final allocation of 750 in the lower tier, I have no idea why they can't have more we have never restricted anyone before so the only thing I can think is lack of stewards due to late notice for a Sunday. Because you could go ahead with this match with no police whatsoever, not a chance of trouble

Your club has done it with us on three occasions, only to make it POTD - I can't see this being any different TBH.

I know we never make it potd til the day before but we've never given you a final allocation have we. You've probably not sold your initial allocation other than this year then a few potd where as you had a lot pay this year. Scunny will sell them out instantly tommorrow could of easily give them more.

My point being, we didn't need a final allocation, given we can POTD.

Thy probably will - and so they bloody should.

They've only been given 3k with the final allocation easily another 1500 available. Tbf 3k for scunny is a cracking effort

It's a huge game for them and not far.

 

[Braindead]

TV should have no influence for games like this. 2000 would be a good effort.

Apparently 2400 as of yesterday plus just found out a train is on for Donny Sunday morning,changing at Sheffield, so plenty will go on that to save the cattle truck run on the coaches.

And there a small club. Your playoff game at Preston last year was your biggest game in fuck knows how many years and you took half of that. Granted it's a bit further.

 

[GTFCfish]

We've sold around 2.2k for Sheff United away and we're asking for more tickets.

Too big for this tinpot league.

Isn't that more than you usually get at home?

 

[Bottega Don]

We usually get around 3k or 4k so it's close.

Instead of 45 mins it's the best part of two hours to Preston. For a game we fully expected to get smashed in after losing the first leg and knowing our manager and best players were all about to jump ship.

Pathetic excuses those and you know it. Would you all not go to old Trafford cos you fully expected to get smashed. Or no fuck gonna that playoff final our managers leaving.

 

[finley]

it's going to be Bradford end only for Chesterfield on Sunday

Facts squire. I went (in an exec box) but loads of others I know who normally go to regular games didn't bother due it being on telly and the early kick off (two other good reasons right there!).

Out of interest before that when did you last have a chance of 2nd tier football? Every one should of been up for it

 

[Jamo]

Should be worth the trip, I'll honestly be shocked if you don't win. Our boys have been on a three day bank holiday bender and only came back into training today probably for a small wind down session. Got our end of season awards dinner tomorrow night as well. Safe to say we're in party mood. I doubt they've even thought about Sunday's game. If you fancy some light entertainment go and check Max Power's Twitter for pictures of him enjoying Wigan's nightlife.

I'll be very shocked if we do win, we've an awful record against you. Our players are running on empty and haven't looked at the races at all the last month or so but hopefully they'll be up for one last push.

We were given another 300 or so tickets and they're all but gone so there'll be roughly 4,700 Tykes at the DW on Sunday, our biggest following since 2013. Should be a good atmosphere if nothing else!

1980 probably.

 

[blademan89]

1980 probably.

So surely you must agree then 35 years on everyone should of been up for it

 

[Fedora Dale]

274 Swindon at The Clearasil last Saturday. Decent effort for a.dead rubber, when they'd already visited this.season in the cup.

I wouldn't have missed it unless we'd been absolutely smashed at home.

Bear in mind Preston didn't even sell out in the other leg.

Last 2 in the playoffs have been about 1k

TBH, I'm amazed we're nearly averaging 500 with the shite on offer this season - especially in this northern biased league.

Next season should be better, geographically, with the added bonus of winding up either Oxford or Bristol Rovers fans.

I wouldn't have gone to that first leg had you paid me after Colchester, I nearly didn't go to the home leg.

Plus the play-offs have zero novelty factor for us.

Same with us that's why we don't travel in them and get shit home crowds. I don't agree with it though , just cos we have bad records in them people choose not to go. If we went up and got in the championship playoffs I think we'd sell out home and away. I know we didn't against you lot last time but it's been a very bad period since

 

[Saddlerrad]

3334 as a final sale from us at Vale Sunday.

Not too bad. Was expecting 2800 odd myself.

 

[SRNP]

You've had less Home fans at home games than 3334 in the past few years, its a Great following from Walsall.
