Yup home ends virtually sold out
1000 Rovers fans heading to Town
One of the visitors sections been given back to Town fans - only 6 left in there
Suggest they’ll be a segregation block of 1000-1500 in the away end.
Club with have left a few areas elsewhere perhaps.
I’d say 27,500-28,000
Which as you say - what a club! For a struggling League One club in the 3rd round of FA Cup |  |

Hopefully Give them a good pounding, in front of a massive crowd , that should get everyone pumped for the Brighton game.. | | | |

Will Naarich roll over for Brighton?
I'd like to see hard tackling and bitchy confrontations.
Any reds or 'knocks' for the Brighton side would be appreciated. |  |

I would've expected double that from them to be honest, maybe if it had been today, there would've been. Trains may be crap as well I suppose I don't know. Back in the day, away fans used to be all over the Cup. |  |

I am sure I read that 14,000 were sold to season ticket holders. I know there were dozens of seats round where we sit in the SAR upper available when it went to general sale.
So where have all the people come from who bought them at general sale? I was able to get 3 next to us for my son and granddaughters who are fans but can’t buy tickets usually because they haven’t got STs. |  | | |

It's a rubbish draw for them tbf. They've played us a fair bit over the last few years so it isn't the glamour tie that they'd have been hoping for |  |

That is true. In the same division and they were only here in the league cup last year.
I was surprised we took 4,500 to Barnsley one year given we played them in the league a few weeks before. Then again, different era. Magic of the cup etc. | |

I understood that away fans can be allocated upto 15% for the cup? | | | |

I know a few season ticket holders who "forgot" to reserve their own seats so had to buy a different seat later. Not me, but as a result I'll be sitting on my own tomorrow! |  | | |

They can. But for Rovers we are not an attractive tie, they’ve been here recently, it’s Sunday, a long way and they’ll probably lose. Surprised they’re bringing almost 1000 to be honest |  |

I'm sure that we will all be listening to their adopted song 'Goodnight Irene' being bellowed out from the away section no matter how many fans Rovers bring this afternoon. | | | |

They do, but they’ve only sold less than 1k and sent the rest back to us. | |

I imagine that there will be a good chunk of ST holders who wanted to buy additional tickets for friends/relatives, so had to wait until general sale. | |

It's because many loyal fans who don't have a season ticket for numerous reasons and have followed the club in League 1 are fed up of the silly balloting system and relieved to finally be able to get a ticket! [Post edited 12 Jan 2025 8:57]

Yep.
Would be disappointing for those fans not to try and get a ticket.
Out of interest what would be your alternate to a ballot system? | | | |

I hope all the bellends making sarcastic comments about non-season ticket fans when the tickets hadn't even gone to general sale (like cruncher) STFU now. | | | |

I would have loved to buy 2 tickets, but was only allowed to buy 1, probably because I'm not a ST holder or member, but still daft if you ask me. |  |

Couldn’t you have just registered the other person and bought one for each of you? |  | | |

Respect to those that are travelling. It’s a long old journey from Bristol and quite simply the FAC isn’t the attraction it was. As others have said, given the number of times we’ve played them in recent years its not the best draw for them either. |  | | |

We decided not to take up our season ticket option this time to allow others to get to see a game. |  | | |

If you have the membership it’s worth while, plenty of genuine fans I know who struggle to get tickets to league games have got memberships and bagged tickets.. game changer/ashton/mckenna have projected this club to somewhere I never thought I’d witness again. We are literally the hottest ticket in town !! | | | |
