Whilst I hate to back up anything North of the river, the above is actually wrong on this occasion. Rovers took a big allocation when they went there in the FA Cup when they beat Derby 3-1 in 2002, Rovers were given the full end at Pride Park - partly as Derby fans weren't interested and Rovers saw it as their big day out. Derby were in the Prem and Rovers were down the bottom of what was the 3rd division at the time The guy above it only referring to allocations for league matches, West Ham got 4,800 in 2023, and Northampton got 5,303 in 2020 for their respective FA Cup matches 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 They are massive (in their own tiny minds). They believe it because they use every opportunity to say it over and over again. A bit like when they jump on their nan. The fact that they are playing third tier football in Chernobyl with dreadful facilities & in front of less than 10,000 fans & never sell out. Its not like them to let facts get in the way, is it?
