Stifler Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Amazing. It might be a hard push to get another 6k sold, but you never know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Haven't read through the whole thread - but isn't it odd that we played Wolves twice in a row, now Preston, because of the cup draws? Don't recall this happening much before. I do recall a fixture glut where, didn't we play the same team 3 times in a row, might be Stoke or West Ham? Or I could be completely deluded and mixing real life memories with Football Manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Should be 45,000+ there tomorrow then and Preston only bringing 1k as well. Wonder if their manager, Simon Grayson, still believes that remark he made when he was managing Leeds in league One and we were supposedly interested in signing Jermaine Beckford off them. He said it would be a step down for him leaving League One Leeds to sign for Premier League Newcastle United. Always thought of him as a bit of a tit since then.

Price doubling too on matchday? aye, we really didnt need to do that ffs, they just cant help it can they It was to avoid queues at the turnstiles which is fair enough really. It is a shame though as I bet we would be looking at a crowd North of 48k. Be lucky if it gets to 46k now. Still a great effort and hopefully a better atmosphere than in the league.

Got them away in the League Cup (lost 2-0), got them away in the FA Cup (lost 3-0) and then lost 3-0 in the league game four days later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mighty__mag Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Will be the furthest we have been in cups in ages if we make it. Got to the quarters v Spurs and quarters of Europa League only a few year ago. Yep, slipped my mind. So used to us never trying in cups. Guess at least Rafa has the mentality that wants to win every game, so some hope of getting in the last 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played Birmingham three times within 10 days in November/December 1973. The games got progressively more violent. One was the game when Jinky Jim Smith got sent off after 57 seconds for breaking an opponent's leg. And yes, I am that old. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
