We're actually improving. Could give you a game next week. You might only win by 2/3 goals now.

So I managed to get a couple of tickets through work when I was worried that I wouldn't get any at all before the general sale.

They are club Wembley tickets which are pretty good seats (despite being prawn sandwich) but I've just checked them and they are block 204.

Does that mean they are in the Oxford Utd end as that is just toward the east side of the stadium? Or is club Wembley not separated like that.

Not that it matters too much as I will have a great time anyway and am just happy to be able to watch is at Wembley competing for something

We're in 247. Got ours half-n-hour after the site opened on the first day of sale and were our chosen seats. No prawn sandwiches in there Cheshire, more of a Sky Blue pork pie block.

I agree with that feeling. Was gutted and flat 2 weeks ago but going into next Sunday on a high AND WITH A LITTLE MORE CONFIDENCE. Sadly as much as I am clinging on, just too much to do in regards staying up. But looking forward to a cracking day out with the magnificent SBA

I am feeling very hypocritical as I have always said I'm not going as I felt the team put no effort in at all this season so why should I, but since Robins has come in he's got the cowardly no back bone bastards playing footie at last and showing some much too late fight.

So I'm sorry to those I felt the same as and 'why should I bother' group, but I can se Robins starting to turn this sunken ship around at last in readiness for a full summer clear out and for him to bring in some non cowards of his own, so this morning I couldn't help myself so ive bought one

I'm in block 528 row 3 seat 38 and I cant bloody wait.
I particularly apologise to Grendel who I agree with on his point concerning attendance especially under the Slade debacle, but I can at last see a chink of light at the end of the longest tunnel in history.

Suffolkskyblue are you training it next week as I owe you a few pints for taking me to Colchester , so if you fancy receiving them please contact.

The Norfolk skyblue massiv, which is me, is on its way thirty years after my last visit, does anyone know if its changed much ?

I know a couple that were in the same boat and are now going.
We do what we do for our own reasons not anyone else's.
I'm sure the ones that went to sixfields or the ones that didn't feel no quilt.
Nether were wrong just differant ideas on how to support the team.
Same as the 25,000 going to Wembley never to be seen again for 30 years.

We`re looking to cross the 28k line today........ oh and we are playing on Tuesday at home to Bury...... given your recent run of form & our knackered small squad it maybe closer than you think! Its what football does, builds our hopes then dashes them against the rocks!!

We need approx 7,500 more sales to beat the England attendance....... I can guarantee a better, noisier atmosphere!

Over on our side we appear to have resolved the "missing" seats that come back on sale in Tier 1 & 2....... it seems that if someone puts it in a basket then fails to complete within a time frame it takes a further 3 hours for the interactive seat plan to refresh.
Monthly pay day for a fair few folk today so that might see a bit of a surge, our online sales stop on Wednesday so after that it`ll be pay on the day......... don`t worry there won`t be a legion of Dot Counters checking tickets.... we`ll be in the pub! :happy::happy:

The 'no colours' rule only applies to the unsegregated areas near the half way line. The area behind the goal at our end was only on sale to City fans, so no issue.

Fair enough.

Have to admit it's the stadium and the bandwagon that's persuaded me, rather than the glory of winning the trophy!

Not been to New Webley, and guess it should be my own team that breaks that duck, even if it is a piss-poor excuse of a team.

Monday Dot News as of 6.30pm............... its been difficult as a rather large amount of dots have switched from unavailable to available......

Oxford seats gone are (Gue) estimated at 27,966.

Coventry seats gone are (Gue) estimated at 42,527.

So overall that makes the figure (roughly) 70,493.

This year has been much different to last year when the tiers were pretty much opened up "en bloc"........ so even with 33k there you couldn`t see much space at our end thanks to the spread.

Of course the empty bit (top tier from scoreboard our end towards your extras) won`t show up on the telly..........................
