Hopefully we are not being restricted to the usual corner and have the whole end.

The fact it's on sky will bring the attendance down somewhat

And time of year...a lot will be away on holiday much like i am with it being in the middle of the summer holidays.

[Dougspireite78]

I don't think it will, I think a lot will go just because it's the 1st big game back in the Football league.

Apparently they wont be available on Sky Go but games that are broadcast on the red button are available on the Sky sports App. That's the current set up apparently, I guess we will see if that continues to be the case.

Can confirm Sky+ games will be on the Sky Sports app. You do need a sky sports sub and sky id obviously.

Am I right in thinking that Sky currently block their channels from being cast via a Chromecast device?

Yep can?t chromecast or output via a hdmi adapter. You can plug a laptop in and use a tv as a second monitor if you use the sky go application or website on a laptop/pc or Xbox as town fan has mentioned in the past.

Tickets seem to be now available on the Derby website but for home supporters only.

I wonder if we are bickering about tickets. Derby may be assuming the usual league away offering of 2700ish would suffice and we've pointed out demand will significantly outstrip that. The issue they've got is the usual extended cup capacity involves additional blocks down the East Stand as per our last trip but they've seemingly already put them on sale. We are entitled to a few more as it's not 10% of the ground capacity.

Think it?s not beyond the realms of possibility 3k+ would want to go too this

Perhaps I'll be proved wrong, but I suspect Derby have underestimated likely demand for the game. I expected them to allocate us up to 5500 in the East/South East Corner and open the West Stand and South Stands for home fans.

Good point.

Given the prices, the short journey, school holidays and the general enthusiasm I really think that there would be 5000 plus away fans.
I think that both clubs will underestimate the demand. Derby traditionally open just 2 sides for these games and will be reluctant to change despite their opponents on this occasion. I hope the Club can get us more tickets for what should be a good night out.

Mentioned before but school holidays works both ways, lot of folk will still be away then.
