Pretty sure they haven't taken the full 2,800 allocation. I heard they were bringing around 1,500.

Oh didn't realise it works like that, thought we just gave teams a lump sum of 3000 tickets and it was a case of them selling them

So around 28.7K home tickets? Basing that on the 31.5K crowd for Middlesbrough last season less the 2.8K away alloc.

It perturbs me that these int' breaks have come too often as we are only 9 games in! Whatever momentum we established could be ruined. I really hope not, and FL has them focussed and ready to carry on where we left off.
Field our strongest side if fit regardless of the last game performances from the likes of Eccles etc.
Torp is a goal threat, Eccles is not. We should have enough with Simms starting up front with EMC out wide left. Wright will feel a bit jet lagged and should be off the bench. Some concern about DaSilva being a little leggy from Int' duty, can Bidwell put in a performance?

If the momentum is there, we should win easily enough.

You could say it helps us with having a smaller squad. Hard to know, but I don't think FL will let them take the foot off

I think this will be a tough game. They’ll try to sit back. If we score early we could well give them a good hiding but could also be like the Norwich game, hope not

Dasilva played 6 minutes in Cardiff on Monday. If he's leggy come Saturday he may as well retire from professional football.

I think the best bet against us is to fight fire with fire instead of sitting back. Last season sitting in was the way to go, I don’t think it is anymore.

They've sold close to their allocation. I'm not sure what that empty block in the middle means? So it looks like they've almost sold 6,7,9.

The empty block is extra segregation held back until they request them i think.
I also think they're unlikely to request extra so it'll probably stay empty.

Can see a poor performance but a massive 3 points

I wonder if any tickets have been held back for whatever reason.

Unlikely, so I wonder if they will allow resale in all areas?

I'd take any sort of game if it ended with three points.

I think if we can come back from the break with a win then it'll put everyone at ease and we'll extend our run a bit.

2-0 Torp & Thomas
