Had long ago decided to go as my eldest wants to go as it is his first day off in the school holidays so we are going.
I do think the prices are too high but for a bit of balance if the return game is a gold game (which I think it is) Fulham will be only paying £2less for adults and £1 less for kids at the Valley so we are just as bad
Maybe we could start having Bronze games, we already have Gold and Silver.
If Millwall took 6000 there were unusually few Fulham in the ground based on the published attendance stats.
We should shift 3000 though if they are still best part of a week from general sale. For a pricey TV game that compares to the paltry 1200 odd that the Massives took to the Yorkshire televised derby on Saturday. (I know Leeds prices are steep but that was a surprisingly small turnout. Then again you can't get from Sheffield to Leeds by boat)
Exactly - where some of these figures come from I have no idea. I hear the same bollocks at Charlton "We had 4k there easily". Reality just under 2k as an example.
Decent numbers for Millwall, but like us, when the circumstances are right they can pull big numbers.
Fulham's first three official attendances were Millwall 18,988; Wolves 18,627 (midweek I recall) and Cardiff 17,508. If Millwall took 6,000 there were Only 13000 or so Fulham compared to about 17,000 for Wolves and Cardiff. Must be the attractiveness of the opposition then!
General sale on a Tuesday, giving people four days to get their tickets. Great organisation from the ticket office..............
4 days is quite along time considering a phone call takes 2 minutes with tickets arriving the next day..... I also believe there was a delay in the tickets arriving too.

I agree. I think the time periods, should have been a bit shorter, leaving 2 weeks for general sale or at least 1week. So they should have been on general sale on Saturday at the latest.

Which would also have meant anyone going to the U21 game tomorrow could have purchased tickets had they not been able to thus far.
It's easy to find fault with hindsight and you can't keep all the people happy all of the time but still more thought needs to be given to allocations and hopefully they will get it right eventually.

I'd say Bournemouth will now go on general sale & Fulham won't sell out.
Reckon this one will end up around 1800-2000
