Unless you get the match for free with your ST, i really don't see a whole lot of attraction with this one, especially as Arsenal away is the next opponent.
The club has admitted as much as they don't expect many, with them hinting they wanted to reduce prices, but Stoke wouldn't agree. I'd guess a crowd of around 25,000 - which is still pretty bloody good.
If Allardyce was still in charge could well have been under 20k, but IF a new manager is announced before the game, crowd could be as much as 40k i reckon.
