Back in the seventies, in division 3 we never averaged anywhere near 17,000...so I for one am delighted with the crowds we get....better than I ever expected
Obviously i would like the game to sell out, but as long as we are still in the tie after tonight, then the atmosphere is gonna be quality whatever the attendance.
Unless we get turned over by 3+ goals tonight then there will be no way there will be a spare seat in the house. Atmosphere will be electric, we had a good warm up with Leeds.
I was in that queue as i didnt collect my ticket till late cos of a stag do cancellation. Some bloke walked past shouting ''where you been all season''. I wanted to hit him.

Yeah that did come to mind, but i was half way through a Floyd Road belly burger and had me mouth full. Also by the look of him, that comment would reflect badly on me.

Lets see how we get on tonight, money is still tight for some people especially if they are bringing the kids so they are probably waiting to see tonights result, if we win, draw or lose by the odd goal I think the tickets will be flying out the door over the weekend.
Wot others have said... good result tonight and the chance to play at Wembley for the winner, then believe me that figure will be well short come game night!!
How good would it feel to sing all the old Wembley songs at The Valley... god i hope so (heaven)
I'd be quite happy to play in front of only a couple of pensioners & dog walkers if it meant we made it to Wembley and then grabbed promotion.
We would all love to see the Valley full again but not many tier 3 teams pull in 27,000+.
As a one off, some non regulars are probably going to show up on Monday but generally it'll be the same people who came to the recent Norwich and Leeds games I think.

less than that. More like 2000 but Airman will have the precise figures.
fully agree mate
