Was never going to be a big crowd but 2100 home tickets sold, plus walk ups and away followings will still be 3200/3300 which all said and done isn’t that bad.

It’s good

Not the whole stand, it is divided underneath for when we have smaller away followings.

Yes I thought they were being put in end of west

Anything less than 3500 will be the biggest kick in the teeth for DA and AC.
The most humiliating time and game in the 151 year history..

For an FA Cup Game- God help us

Out of curiosity is the West stand divided the same ? Only been in East and South.

Also the FA said they must charge a tenner yet the Droylsden fiasco was a quid anyone know how we got round that ? Know it was a rematch

Less than 1500 maybe. 3500 will be more bodies than some of the league games.

They were bad results whilst we were in the proper football league.
Minor blips

I'm fairly sure the West can't be segregated in the same way the East can be so cant be used for away fans.

It was a million years ago. The rules were possibly different then.

[Spire-Power]

Does FA Cup have rules about segregation? Sure I read that we had played at some NL where fans aren't segregated.

The home cup thrashing to Wycombe was among the most embarrassing

Tickets are on sale to town fans for all blocks in the West stand so they aren't in there. Assume they will be in the North if they are bringing 500 odd.

I know people have got our issues on and off the park but 1500 would be sad. That said I think it will be in the region of 2500 which will be par for the course for loads of lower league clubs. I'm expecting a 15 minute delay in kickoff ala Tommty Lee's tetsimonial

Generally it is sad the way the FA cup has lost popularity genarlly. I don't understand the lack of interest in the lower leagues. One win in the FA cup means instant progress and I still find it reallt exciting.

We've sold almost 2500 already so will be more than 3000 with walk ups and away fans.

Agree on the Fa Cup, still a big fan and the money on offer is massive for clubs.

Nope it’s broken at the halfway line by the tunnel etc which means less than half of the West stand could be sold to home fans and wouldn’t work due to the fancy padded seats used for corporate etc. East stand was purposely built with the doors underneath to allow the segregation.

It means they only have to open the small catering outlet in the east stand. So yes I'd wager.

Doesn't look like that online when I bought.

Lesley posted something about it being 2100 yesterday. Assuming a few have been sold it won't be far off 2500 so far.
