Hope you get it resolved without too much suffering in the meantime and thoroughly enjoy Sunday⚽️💙 Cheers mate. Discharged from hospital and back in a fortnight so I’ll take Sunday off the painkillers and antibiotics I reckon! I’ll bring a bottle of Orimorph down just in case🙃

I think we’ll take 23k I know exiles who are taking family and extended family and friends. I’m pretty sure there’ll be more than we had against Dale.

I can’t understand how we had 800 empty seats yesterday. Did people forget the kick off time. a couple hundred will be the free tickets the coop give out but don't show and they said that in the meeting with the club that they know throughout they have lots of no shows. Also back when buying season tickets in the together stand you could buy a under 5 ticket for free and some people bought it who didn't have kids just so they could get a free spot next to them Not for that game. The Co-op had 427 community tickets remaining from last season, but those had all been allocated earlier this season. No idea why there was so many empty seats on Saturday. Some people were stood at the back of the stands. The official attendance was 300 down on the capacity. The Club have said they will look into potential misuse of free under 5 tickets season tickets. They have said they will check the data as to whether these free season tickets are actually being used. I have heard a few people boasting that they only buy them to create extra space. A real shame if that is the case, because the offer of a free season ticket for under 5's was a very good gesture by the Club.

Think I read somewhere that some people have upgraded these free tickets via the ticket office, for adult tickets for big games..not sure if read it on here or twitter. Not keen on folks taking the pee out of a great gesture.

I can't wait but it's just an absolute faff, a proper day out in London should always be done on the train but due to their greed and unreliable service it's just not worth it.
I had a good swill on Saturday so I won't be overly fussed if I end up jumping in the car and with no concrete plans in place I've jumped on the parking at Wealdstone.
As for the crowd from memory I think they travelled well in the 90s and I wouldn't be surprised if they have more but the stupid early kick off and lack of busses might put a few off up there.
I wouldn't be surprised if the gate is in the region of 50k and I think our ticket sales will be the best we've taken with c22k.

I sincerely hope that I'm wrong but I feel like a lot of people are overestimating our attendance.
Public transport is unreliable and expensive and people have less disposable income than they have had for years. With it being half term week there will be people with pre-booked holidays. Also, some of the red and faded blue daytrippers who bolster our attendances on occasions like this will be saving their money for the cup final the following weekend.
I think anything over 18k will be an achievement. Hopefully I'm underestimating the level of support.

How much money will the club make out of the game? Will the FA just take everything, ticket sales, food, drink the lot?

I’m interested to know why people think they’ll take more than us. Travel for them looks a nightmare.

Think this has dried up a little and was surprised there average home gate was just over 6,000. Were a lot of em closet magpies latching on to what is for them success.
