Lots of Birmingham suggesting the main stand and the away end for us.

That would be good. Up to 12k then for us if needed and Blues fans wouldn't be short.

Why do we need 12k for a home game with all those boycotting St Andrews, why would it be more than the 6-7k we get now

I doubt they'll pack the place out, but it was the draw many of them wanted and they seem genuinely chuffed with it.

Lol no...my wording was i wonder if they get small retainers as I can't imagine how someone would do this in their spare time otherwise.

Think the interest in this draw might add to the Bristol Rovers replay attendance I was expecting less than 4000 home fans but it might be considerably more now.

Really? I remember the Blues end looking very sparse, do they use the same counters as Wasps?

Conor Thomas played. Kevin Phillips came on and changed the game for them, looked a class above at aged 38

I remember being right behind the goal and Bentley hitting a looping volley which looked like it was going over. Loads of fans round me shouting “wayyyyyyy” and me thinking that’s going in... needless to say, it went in.

I’m loving this it’s the best possible draw but let’s get past Bristol Rovers first.

If we get through the Bristol game - and we beat the blues - will they still like us ?

Look, we all know the game-lots of people including yourself fishing, trying your best as usual to get a bite.
Are you going over to the game?

You are so wrong !!!
I for one think it's a great draw, will be a good atmosphere and a 50/50 chance to progress to the 5th round.
PS. We have to beat Bristol Rovers first.

Are you not reading what you’re posting?

How is anyone trying to get a reaction? You’ve said in one post your opinion has changed because people are asking whether you’ll attend and in the next you’re saying you don’t care what anyone else thinks.

You said “what has changed since the draw”
I said “lots of people asking me if I’m going or not”
Besides-I lose track of what I say half the time.....

Tbf it might make financial sense for us to turn the fixture around, or at the very least give them more than just the away end.

Can we make sure we all get up to St Andrews for the replay to back the lads so this game actually happens?

I think I read otherwise from someone who heard from a friend that was told by a coworker who is the cousin of a BCFC ST holder who took a random guess.
No one knows

Think everybody attending should only be allowed in wearing half and half scarves. That way nobody knows who's who. What could possibly go wrong?

It’s a lose lose as there is a potential for boycotters to attend and make a point

losing the replay could be a blessing as this really is as bad a draw as it could get
Click to expand...
I don't see why, they'll be a fair bit of media attention and a good opportunity to reply to Ricoh questions with 'ask Wasps about the indemnity'.

Plus it blows the St Andrews boycotters minds.

Why are people assuming Birmingham will be able to shift 20K tickets? For them it's a cup tie against a lower league side. Do you really think that many would turn up if we were at the Ricoh and got drawn against Walsall?
Click to expand...

I think the novelty of playing as the away side in their own stadium would attract a few, plus those who wouldn't want the embarrassment of having more Cov fans there than Brum.

Think our attendance might jump a bit also due to the novelty, but I can't see it selling out completely. Besides got a replay to win first.
