We'll have Oxford away in the middle of that if we get through.

Are there more fixtures to be announced? Seems strange us only being on once until.the end of March and we're wanting to book the train for Birmingham away. At a guess I would say they're waiting to see how the 4th round of FA cup pans out before picking games for the w/e of Sat 11th. Probably want to avoid another fiasco like this weekends game has ended up. They've already picked one game for the weekend of the Birmingham game and I can't see any reason why they would have held back announcing others for that weekend. So i'd probably say you'd be alright to book tickets. Still a risk until it's 100% confirmed like.

Out of the 12500 capacity? Really?

You can blame .com for that Seeing as it's Owen doing the draw I'm still not convinced we can't be drawn away to them with special conditions of the same ref as last time.

Forest have done well to still be in the draw.....

How much is their cous cous?

Are all nonces gay? According to Eric Bristow.

Yes. Depending on when the appeal is heard is feasible for him to only miss two league games (FA Cup 3rd round, replay, 4th round)?

Even then it's debatable. Look at that Plymouth keeper. Kill two kids, have a few years out then re-sign back for them and get made club captain. Nowt much gets said about it.

We should have given them 2000 like they gave us and we should reduce Leeds' numbers as well! To be fair to Leeds they sold out against us so why should they have given us anymore than the minimum? Others, such as Forest and particularly Hull in the cup, were nowhere near sold out so we've a right to twist at them. I think 3200 is the minimum we can give for a league game anyway if that's what's requested.

Think it's sold out mate unless you buy a half season ticket. Balls! How dare we have a full stadium! They're probably holding some tickets back at the minute to sell as half season tickets (not sure it would be that many mind) so if they don't sell they might put them on sale as match tickets a week or so before.

Think it's sold out mate unless you buy a half season ticket.

That can't be the full 7-8k surely? Unbelievable if it is. We could clearly sell more but it then hold probably be to much hassle for them logistically to give us any.

On Saturday night and Monday night respectively. Sky have f***ed over Villa fans for that game. Ah well. Worth noting the Villa game is subject to either us or Villa being in the FA Cup 5th round... If we are, then that'll be moved again as well like Our fixtures could get pretty ridiculous if we go on a run in that cup. Villa away to Spurs like so will probably come down to us beating Birmingham.

Blackburn away tickets on sale. Straight to zero points. £30.

Fernhurst has changed hasn't it? Apparently it's a family pub that admits away fans but "doesn't encourage singing", or so I read. Heads up for anyone looking to go by train - I've booked to go via Carlisle and it was about half the price of going via York.

Yep, 8k according to this: http://ewoodpark.jimdo.com/ewood-park-history-of-the-stands/

I very much doubt they will be. Crazy booking up this early for Brighton when it's odds on that the fixture will be moved. Seems fairly daft that they've scheduled Championship games that weekend. How many are actually going to take place? 2-3 at the most i'd reckon.

It's the 4th round on the 28th, but aye, I hope the lad's flights are refundable.

Has any club ever may such an absolute pig's ear of selling tickets for (what should be) a relatively attractive match? Unbelievable that a PL club could show such incompetence.

Currently over 9k tickets available with what looks like half of the West Stand Upper Tier not being opened, so i'd guess estimates of them having sold 9k-10k probably seem about right.

Might get a reasonable idea from what Burton drops to. 1600 allocation and obviously with it being a new ground will be very popular.

I understand the sentiment here. However, it's simply a by-product of how popular football has become since the inception of the PL, and there is no way round it.

Technically there's nothing to stop you buying a ticket for every game that goes to zero and if you don't attend, selling it on to family, friends, friends of friends etc. Fair enough we don't really want to be encouraging that, but if you feel you are somehow being stitched-up by an unfair system, maybe you need to play the game? FWIW, I don't think the number of fans is that buy a ticket for every game but don't go to that many is particularly high.

Wigan already down to zero points. Not sure what the allocation is but i'd think there's a good chance it goes to members.
