    After our away performance against Anzi Makhachkala I'm expecting/hoping that we'll win tomorrow and progress to the next round. There hasn't been a great deal of enthusiasm shown so far in the competition but now that we're getting the scent of some silverware the enthusiasm seems to be growing.

    We'll be without some first team players Krul and Coloccini through injuries, and Vuckic and Ryan Taylor are still sidelined. One good thing (never thought I'd hear myself saying this not so long ago) is that Shola will be back in the squad for the game.

    I think we'll get a decent crowd in spite of the Russian type weather we're having and just thought for a bit of interest and a chance for somebody to get some rep out of it, what do you think the gate will be for the game?

    Just say what you think the crowd will be, you don't have to give the result (that's a foregone conclusion) or score, just the attendance.

    Just for a bit of fun but the winner will get rep off me and hopefully everybody else making a guess.

    im guessing between 40,000 and 45,000 put me on the spot il go with 44,367. Good point on Shola, he may not be everyone's cup of tea but he gives us something different in the air/holding up the ball etc

    Be great to get over 40,000, I was thinking more in terms of mid to high 30's, but my guess won't count.

    I think 36000. Think a 40k plus crowd is optimistic given how poor they have been this season, hope I'm proven wrong though.

    I think about 35,000 not expecting a full (ish) house midweek, cold weather and tv coverage may put some off, as well as school and work commitments!

    Not think it could be 30,475?

    Could be an omen.

    Wouldn't be right for me to take part, I can bend the rules a little bit.

    Went to the Box Office today to buy my Man City ticket...they said to someone buying tickets for tomorrow that based on tickets sold so far they're expecting a 45,000 crowd.
