So, who has changed their mind and is going for the first time tomorrow?
Hope the occasion lives up to the hype and razzmatazz surrounding it and everyone has a good day and stays safe and we get the right result.

Hopefully they enjoy it football wise and go back again after.

No point starting a witch hunt!

Would never make it that, and yeah hopefully they will, I am not sure what else needs to happen on the pitch for them to come and watch.

You can just see it. In the first minute, city try playing out from the back, Walsh makes a mistake and 5k people will be calling him shite and demanding we punt it forward

I’m hoping the reduced capacity compared to a “big game” at the Ricoh means there’s fewer day trippers shouting forward and asking why we don’t bring McSheffrey on, it may be a naive hope but there you go.

I still remember somebody abusing McSheffrey thinking he was Freddie Eastwood.

I’m going tomorrow with a mate of mine who hasn’t been to st Andrews before. I think he’s just been a bit lazy as opposed to anything else.He’s bringing his cov crazy son, and they’re both really excited. I’m hoping it will be the catalyst for him to get his act together and make a few more trips!

Ha. I assumed it was exaggeration. Did he really say that? Oh my.

Assume he realises the gate is split either way?

And he'll put the same amount into the clubs coffers as if he'd attended the fist game. NOPM!

Remember the club are tearing families apart by refusing to come back. 3 of the 4 board members are boycotting

My first game tomorrow at St Andrews (not been there since a friendly in 90s)
Reason not been earlier is not based on any principles... just family & geographical constraints sadly!
Will be back up there for the Bolton game too though !

Please don’t - dreading it already.

It’s obviously great to have new fans there etc etc, but I’m really not looking forward to a load of idiots stuck in a time wrap who don’t understand our style of play and think everyone is shit, when actually it’s their first time seeing them play.

Someone I know, I'll call him my mate, but he's fucking embarrasing, he's only been to the last 3 games or so this season and is constantly moaning and shouting that Robins needs to sort it out. I've pointed out that we are doing fairly well playing the way we do but its wasted on him. Thankfully there should be restrictions to s/t holders only where i'm sat so might get some peace for a change

To be fair he could be like me and too gone idle to go and get glasses.
Think I might hold out until I get Biamou and Allen mixed up
