    There are large amounts of tickets left for nearly all areas of the ground. I know it's on Sky, but surely this is the biggest game so far this season?
    Why are fans staying away or will it sell out before KO?

    Must be the TV factor, but I am surprised that it hasn't sold better!

    Had another look and they are selling, perhaps it will sell-out, but I am surprised that it wasn't days ago.

    Maybe because we don't play attractive football and we don't have any free scoring strikers.

    this, there were several rows with no one in them on Tuesday.

    looks like I'm not the only one that doesn't like watching us. I'm done with home games until redknapp is gone.

    Don't worry about it too much. I'm sure all these 'fans' will be there moaning about not being able to get tickets if we are about to get promoted. Remember Watford and Leeds two years ago!

    The only empty seats were in the family enclosure (you can't take young kids to evening games) and the Bolton end (Fake Foolham supporters). Otherwise the ground was pretty full.

    at least your can be drunk, do you do it every week or is it a one off? I know finglas had a ST but I believe he gave it up and not that I blame him one bit.

    Nothing wrong with that......

    Edit: No 2nd game this season, Brum was the first........why would i want to be drunk to watch a game, I'd probably fall asleep.....no fun in that....

    It's down to cost mostly, tomorrow when you add flights, petrol to and from Dublin 300 kms, tolls & parking, train from Gatwick, ticket, programme, bite to eat x 2, the odd pint, copious coffees you are looking at the bones of £150 for the day....could almost have a break in Spain for that......

    I agree with a lot of what you say flyer, but if that was the case why would any one of us have bought a ticket since 1995, because we've been ****ing shight for the last 20 years really!

    we've been enjoyable to watch even if we lose, we aren't enjoyable to watch now even if we win.

    only Holloways team were as bad as this.
