Now if everyone took at least 1 extra instead of moaning about the crowd we could get 22,000.

I started with Marmite, moved onto Bovril for a bit - now it's back to Marmite. Been off the Bovril for a while to be honest. Feel better for having got that off my chest (actually fancy crumpets with a bit of butter and Mamite now, but haven't got any crumpets in - though do have a 24hr Tesco 2 minutes away - decisions, decisions)

I'm surprised that there are more tickets sold for this game than the Boxing day game, usually far bigger crowd on Boxing day. Over 1600 seats left on quick tickets for 26th less than 600 for 19th.

Roll on Saturday

There was even an advert on TV for it a couple of days ago!
Can't believe it's no longer available to the football classes. next it will be goodbye to Balti pies as the rugby boys need the selling space for their foie gras!

Just looked on the Oldham fans site (thanks Nick for putting links on here). They are in uproar that home fans can get in for £10 when they are being charged normal rate. Oh well, tough shit!

Just had a look on line and most blocks are pretty full, there are odd seats left in quite a few but not many clusters at all, should be a good atmosphere and hope we get a result.

I would have been expecting 14k, so 15k would be great, 16k would be even better!

There are, however they are split up. You get something like 2 offers which have to involve the whole ground, the 2 local offers which we must have used for Saturday.

The club opened 26 and 27 for the Gillingham match. Looking at their tweets, the whole of the telegraph's turnstiles will be open, which may mean they have the whole end open on the day.

Paid £25 at Bradford. The vast majority of their supporters had paid less than £7.

If you want to go to a game you know the price. You either go or you don't.

Would their club charge our fans £10 when we go there if not they have no argument, I think there are a lot of clubs making a lot of money from our away following this season. If they are that bothered don't bother coming.

Personally the less away fans the better. More noise from us and they can feel like their own havnt bothered

Went to the shop today after work to get 7 tickets told it is sold out until they open another block.
Apparently they hold a percentage back to sell on the day.
Utter madness, I will try again tomorrow but some others might not.

Looks like it will be a bumper crowd☺

No didn't bother will try again was told there will be loads on the day and that they had to wait for their manager to see if anymore blocks can be opened, the good thing is they maybe opening block 14.
I want some choice in where I sit wI'll try tomorrow.
