For some perspective for those complaining about cup bandwagons, our last 3 home league gates against Blues: 2012 - 22,240 2009 - 22,637 2006 - 27,212 I have excluded the early rounds league cup tie a few years back. In the context of this season, it'll be a big turn out, but in general terms...

Quite lengthy queues at the t/o apparently.

You'd have thought so. But if all non ST seats in the usual area have gone, plus 6 additional blocks that aren't normally opened for sale, and yet we're still only at 5K, it suggests that relatively few ST holders have secured their seats yet. You'll be surprised how many don't bother.

Whoever is working the night shift at Ticketmaster needs to pull their finger out

It's a measure of how shit things have become that we're getting a bit giddy over 13K for a home game (which would be decent in the circumstances I know, because it's an away game), or that we might have fans behind the goal. If you'd said in the HR days, or in those first few seasons at the...

Yes, I do rember that. I went online in about 97, and it was quite active back then.

It must be the oldest active online community though, of note anyway. It predates the social media pages and outlasted GMK et al, unless I've missed one.

I think what people mean is that all of the available seats have gone in the Kop Stand blocks that are normally on sale, even the 3 extra blocks are selling well. There will be unsold ST seats released next week, it always happens, but sales will probably be well into the Tilton by that time.

I don't think that's right. There are 14,000 seats available to us if we sell whole of Kop and Tilton. The 'half each' thing is a little misleading. Two stands each yes, but not an even split of tickets.

Looks like they'll have to start opening Tilton as Kop Stand is about sold out (aside from ST seats, some of which may be released on Monday).

Of course and some of them will free up on monday, but like I say, the rest of the block has been snapped up by non ST holders already. It's only usually about 1/3 full in total.

Tickets seem to be going well. Already more in my block (S34) than there has been for any game this season.

There was no need for either. There are already 3 blocks closed between Kop Stand and away stand. Obviously, 3 blocks of segregation is not enough so they have increased it to 6 blocks just to sure. And to think, when Villa play at SA, no blocks are closed. All a bit weird.

This delay announcing ticket sales means it's almost certain WMP are sticking their oar in trying their best to ruin the occasion. Will probably be 6am on the Sunday. No reason why this game cannot be 3pm Saturday, but suspect it won't be.

Recently maybe, but they have doing it for years, right back to Sixfields and then loads more when Jimmy Hill died. It took the game last season at the Ricoh for our lot to properly jump on it. It's all a bit silly, but I'm not that arsed by it. Fans of two clubs don't like each other and have...

I'm grateful of course for what Blues have done, so when we play our last game there, I'll make sure I buy the staff at the pub a drink and I'll shake the hand of the Blues steward who I chat to at games. This banner though, mmmm. This is a cup tie between two local clubs, and should be played...

Yep, we were, 4,252 (2,170 away) according to Wiki.

This all seems sensible. From what I can tell, most Blues fans would rather be in the away end. Keeps them happy and our ST holders won't have to move.

Don't think so, but would have been close for the Wolves game.

I'd say the obsession is mores theirs judging by the number of threads they create season after season. I don't go on there unless someone posts a link, but am always entertained when I do. Some absolute belters in that thread.
