Your right, in future ill adopt the style of Longjohnskublue. A new member who I have to say has the touch of Noel coward about him.

This being the Noel Coward who was
Wikipedia said:
known for his wit, flamboyance, and what Time magazine called "a sense of personal style, a combination of cheek and chic, pose and poise"
wish I had a touch of all that.

Anyone else slightly uncomfortable that a charity match is being hijacked as a means to stick 2 fingers up at Sisu. I realise that is not the organisers aim but no doubt that's what will happen. Are the car parking fees + f&b being donated to the charities?
But it was the FL and Sisu who changed the Bristol game to a sunday and so putting it in direct competition not the other way around . As for any charity event,very rarely is every penny put to the cause, even children in need produces costs which have to be paid.

He hasn't. That's why I said it. He makes Jim Davisdon look rounded and well adjusted.

I have just been up the ricoh and bought two tickets ( east Stand). Well over 5k sold as of 11.30 and a steady stream of people whilst I was there
They will have 8 cash turnstiles open on the day, so looks very promising for c10k at least.

Cameras will be there

Anyone sitting on the fence, get up there tomorrow!!!

Is there a limited number of tickets available for pay on the gate? Or will they just keep letting people in and filling up other areas of the ground

Blocks will be opened up if and when necessary.If paying on the gate I'd get there early as possible as there is an expected large amount paying on the day,you don't want to be still queuing at 2p.m

I think it was Sheffield Utd in the cup last season when that happened. LOADS of walk-ups and people were joining the nearest queue in the hope it was the right one, they ended up having to open further gates. I'd advise anyone to avoid that if they can.

Just done my stint selling tickets. Very close to 6000 sold now. Main stand sold out, a few left for some of the older generation who don't want to sit with us yobs :) just ask when you get there ;)
There will be 10 turnstiles open for pay on the day. Nearly sold out of tickets for block 20 then they will spread it out from block 20.

Just got our seven tickets, half an hour ago. Was told we had very nearly reached 6000, we are in block 20, they will work out from there as they sell more. Ten turnstiles to be opened for cash tomorrow. Sit anywhere in your block, seats not allocated.

Looks like one of those old fashioned formations then 2 3 5. Not many defenders there. Winner more goals the better.

Can't go as I've a family do this afternoon however hoping for a nice big crowd and a great day for all those attending-an opportunity to ignore the madness simultaneously happening 35 miles away.
