About 60 seats left showing as available. Think only block 13 left to open now (unless they surprise us).

I reckon the club have held loads of tickets back. They can't announce its pay on the day with only 60 seats left.

Most of the 60 gone now. About a dozen left.

Wonder if we'll see a bit of rotation tonight with this busy period, particularly as we have a decent squad now.

O’Hare will presumably have to be rested for one of these two games. Wright looked knackered plus Sakamoto, Bidwell and van Ewijk looked a little leggy.

I think Sakamoto has to play every game until we can get some reinforcements in January, even if he is tired.

And risk injury? No, we have to use the squad as all teams do at this time if year.

Think we will save the rotation for the Boro game. Can go up there and look to be a bit more solid, but want to keep the positive momentum at home.

I assume Fadz will play. Robins is a loyalty manager and I think will feel Fadz will be disrespected if he chooses Binks ahead of him.
Assuming Kitching is out....

Let’s hope not - fully expect Binks to play.

I agree unless Sheaf comes in and Latibeaudiere moves back. He doesn't deserve to be dropped.

That is all on the assumption that the Kitching appeal is unsuccessful.

They’ve just opened block 13 for over 18s only due to incidents at the Sheff Wed game. Didn’t think anything happened? Feels like the SAG are desperately looking for something every game to complain about

Presume that the delay in getting it opened was waiting for permission from the SAG?

Yep no doubt they were looking through footage from Boxing Day to find one person who didn’t sit where he should have…

What incidents? It's so frustrating how we seem to be the only club in the country that seem to have to deal with this constant shit from the SAG.

They need to be called out on it more and made to justify their decisions as at the moment, given there's no less trouble at our games than elsewhere in the country, the only thing it points to is their own incompetence.

Is this the same every game or another weird decision for tonight to put people off coming?

There's no seats available for pay on the gate. It's nearly fully sold out.

How the fuck can it be sold out when the club say they are expecting 25K. This stuff really needs sorting out, its embarrassing

God nows how many ticket sales we lose when people look, see no tickets available, and don't keep checking to see if they're being drip fed out

We could rest MVE and slot Lati there if others are available ie Binks or Kichting and Sheaf to come back in?

it'll be tickets in the away end, Swansea maybe bring 1k to 1.5k abd they will be in a stand that holds 6k and they haven't yet got it ready to be split support

it can only be a case of replacing the roller shutters given the stand is designed to be split support

It works when the away team bring 4k or whatever, but for a lot of games (like this), you end up with a sell-out at about 25k or whatever.

I really think the ultra section should go behind the goal, put safe standing in. Move the away fans to the corner and police it a bit better. The hard-core will still be close enough to sing songs at the away fans, and the attendances won't be dependent on how many away fans come to the game. Therefore increasing revenue, home supporters in the stadium, and atmosphere.

what they claim is the issue

the stand itself is designed to be used by supports of both teams so that can't be the issue
