Ticket sales are looking atrocious! Looks like there's at least 7-8k remaining

Wait until you see attendances at other games before declaring that. Financially (if not correctly in some eyes) DK has piched it ok in terms of ticket revenue; will be somewhat offset by drop in revenue from food/drinlk.

Sunderland got 25k last week (usually get 46-47k in the league)

Palace got 13k (25k in the league)

We'll get 25k with our usual attendance of 31 and people will call it an embarrassment lol

We’ve been over this endlessly on here. When the going is good people will pay any price, when it’s going badly you can’t give tickets away.

well quite

When we're winning everything is fantastic and the sun shines out of Doug's arse

When we're losing the club is heading for oblivion and he's a money grabber no better than SISU

Well, that’s the easiest question of the day - it will obviously be Simms (assuming fit) given the zero other options available.

It’s not obvious if the rumours that he’s out of favour for turning down a transfer to Burnley are true. That’s also the reason why he wasn’t even in the squad on Saturday.

We played Man City after the end of the transfer window and he was in the squad that day. The likelihood is that he just isn't preferred, nothing to do with turning down a move anywhere.

Same with Sisu TBH. No mystery that things were at their worst when we were a L1/2 side and calmed down significantly once Robins started taking us back up the division. Literally nothing is as important as product on the pitch.

Watching from home tomorrow? It’s a long way to go to have to drive back feeling worse than when you arrived.

We have tickets and childcare sorted for tomorrow evening so we’re still planning on going.

Mostly just nice for my wife to get to go to more games than she did last season, the result matters a lot less than it does for us to go together.

Andy Turner has revealed his starting XI which has Lati at RB and Bidwell at LB. I will fucking despair if either of those things are proven correct.

he hasn't a clue who we will play and is just basing it on the idea there will be changes and who played last round

Apparently these are added to your season ticket.

Has the club communicated this?

how do you know that they won't send out and email saying this later when they also send out the other tickets for tomorrow
 
edgy said:
With all due respect to them, Bidwell and Lati should be nowhere near starting this game. Barring a injury crisis, neither will play for the rest of the season.

Get as many of the new players on the pitch as possible. We need to move on now.

Bidwell will play. It wouldnt surprise me if Lampard promised him he will play due to being left out of the premier league squad

Depends on where he sees Mfuni fitting in as he is the priority. He could play Mfuni at CB and Bidders but it would be a further shocker if Bidwell gets time ahead of Mfuni, would be like starting Grimes again on Saturday!

We’ll find out tomorrow, who knows what’s going on in the background.

If no one knows what's going on in the background, why suggest a rumour as the potential reason Simms wasn't included in the squad?
 
Give or take a couple of players we should start the team we want to start vs Forest. Play Gboho, Tchaouna, Yirenkyi at least ffs. Stick Cherif in there too. Just get the players in or i'll lose my mind. If i see Grimes, BTA and co my heart will pack in.
