Bristol Boy Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Just bought mine. 500 are on sale now and more could be sent if the demand is high enough. That 500 leaves 6,500 pay on the day so it would seem sensible if Weds sent some more to avoid delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhombrecito Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 It's a while away - I'm sure they'll send more as soon as they're needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire_red Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Are the seats reserved? Not that it matters to some of our oiks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave L Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Given what's happened in the Leppings Lane end in the past, I'm sure security and stewarding will be pretty tight and that people will be asked to sit in their allocated seats. How many fans did we take up there when we played them in the cup a few years back .. when Danny was their manager? Hopefully we can manage a few thousand this time. I haven't been to Hillsborough since 1974, so I'm determined to make this game. Should be a great atmosphere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Rocker Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 How many fans did we take up there when we played them in the cup a few years back .. when Danny was their manager? Hopefully we can manage a few thousand this time. Must have been about 3,000+ and we only had the upper tier. Made a lot of noise that day as I recall, despite the lack of home support (which will be very different this time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percy Parrot Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 As I remember it last time we took around 4,000 (but that was before we got official figures so it may have been a few less). As the stand is so huge and it's mostly pay on the day I do not think it will be reserved seating. If you buy in advance you get your ticket £1 cheaper. I will probably try and buy mine in advance to save the £1...but not sure it it's worth it...cos I may just lose it or at the last moment not be able to go. I expect about 3,000+ this time around.

Percy Parrot Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 can see much more than 3,500, buying mine saturday cant wait!! I can see POTENTIALLY a lot more going but it depends on the results of the next 3 games. Also- many people predict a massive turn out...which is possible. BUT then as we only took about 4,000 there last time when they were in the Premiership...why would we suddenly take more than that this time? I hope we sell out and take 7,000 there...but that might be pushing it a little! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire_red Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 They brought 2,830 to AG, would be nice to beat that figure as they are such a MASSIVE club and thy ought to rename their Rivals site WE ARE BIGGER THAN YOU AND TOOK MORE THAN ANYONE TO............COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cider_Army Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 I'm thinking about getting the train, though I will probably be going alone, so I am going to need lots of singing to stop me feeling lonely!!!! Oh yeah and some Cider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
