Even in the 90s we had pre season and testimonials.

We might have to start with those again. Hull in the final should secure you an extra 10k tickets. Only took about 25k against us in fa cup. So usual 38k allocation will be over 45k at least

No offense to Hull (in fact I quite like them)but as a premier league team they are utterly tedious. Will definitely be cheering on Wednesday or Brighton in the final!

 

[Ciderup]

Judging by the performances in the first two games, I have to fancy Wednesday to win it.
Hull v Wednesday in the final unless Brighton can find an extraordinary performance at the Amex.
Derby were just terrible, really bad.

They sold the last PO final out against us, you'd expect them to sell 38k again.

No chance. That was there 1st trip novelty factor

Surely a team on the verge of the Prem would sell out easily?

They won't

Sold out a few times this season, no idea why they didn't fill it today.

They've been in the playoffs various times no clubs sell out who have been in them a lot

By the way and I know it was the play offs but Hillsborough holds the best crowd of the season.

34,260 says it's not sold out but due to SYP yesterday was a complete sell out. 2500 unsold in away end, 1300 in the corner (not allowed to use) and a reduced allocation in lower Lep and North (1,400)

Just speaks volumes of the feel around the place.

We've probably had more of our own fans there for most home games this season.

Plod are a joke.

Agree, 4 years ago we had 38k in with 500 away.

Oh and remember Leeds fans saying we wouldn't match their crowds with bigger prices....erm......

I remember a 39k against us when we had a section on the north. April 2001 rings a bell we won 2-1.

 

[StevieEvansRedNWhiteArmy]

Just because Wednesday won doesn't make saying two of the best performers in the Championship this season will be an "embarassment" any less moronic

I said Kayal would be embarrased by Forrestieri, he was.

Simple as that really.

Bloody Wednesday, I've been humming 'if you're not f**king bouncing, you're a Blade' all sodding day! It's doing my head in.

I hate you

I'm no Wednesday fan B89, just watched the game and can't get that bloody song out of my head!

 

[JoshBCFC]

Hull to beat Wednesday 2-0 in the final. You heard it here first.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Wednesday v Hull? How wank, might aswell play it at Elland Road.

Shut up

 

[Ciderup]

Thanks then!
Just watched I'D so sorted now.

It isn't over till the fat lady sings, wouldn't be surprised to see a turn around on either match, it's the unpredictability of the playoffs that we love.

That's rich coming from a Mansfield fan.
