FA Cup 3rd Round

[Bobbin']

What else could they pick? It was a crap draw. Doubt Millwall v Bournemouth or Bolton v Palace will be spark much interest for the home teams.

I'd much rather watch the Sutton or Barrow game than any of the shit that has been selected.

The West Ham and Spurs games in particular are horrendous.

 

[villa loyal]

Stoke v wolves will be a tasty game. Well it will for me as they are both local clubs. Blues v Newcastle appeals to me, that will be a good game. bit of a dull draw.

 

[SF_]

Happy with the tea time kick off, not played Arsenal since 1999, only been two fixtures between us since 1960.

Proper cup fixture.

 

[The Southbank]

£40 for our game at Man Utd, fuck that.

It will be tasty, £20 a ticket with an allocation of 4,632, would hope to sell out.

I'm sure you will easily sell out. Should be a proper game of football, not one for the purists though.

Same price as Leeds tomorrow.. I know which one i'd rather go to.

 

[QPR_Matt]

So far we have sold about 10 tickets for our home game with Blackburn. £10 season ticket holders, £15 for everyone else. I expect an attendance of about 4000 in total, including away fans.

 

[Kilburn Ram]

We been allocated 4,200 for West Brom at £15 a pop.

Would imagine we will sell that out, especially given our current form.

Could be a busy city centre with Newcastle at Birmingham same day.

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Cardiff v Fulham televised.

As if that wasn't horrendous enough in itself it's an 11:30am kick off.

We had 5.3k there last season, bigger allocations for the bigger clubs I suppose..

Presume that's just for that Welsh channel

 

[roversfan2001]

£1 a ticket for season ticket holders under 18 at QPR. I'm in London for a couple of days before then but already bought train tickets to come back up in the morning.

Or maybe as we're such an attractive draw they are limiting us to the 15% as they will need the rest to sell to their own fans?

I know youre only joking but West Bromwich don't sell out a single game do they and take pathetic away followings everywhere too , I suppose it is incredibly boring supporting them. They used to be better supported 10 years ago when they were in the championship

 

[Kilburn Ram]

I think there are a lot of Premier League clubs who are stale and being mid table each season must make it difficult to drum up support.

I'd love for us to be in the PL but not if it means mid table mediocrity year after year after year. The Championship is far more interesting.

Having said that I am sure the powers that be might prefer some "bigger" clubs in the PL such as Leeds, both Sheffield clubs, us, Forest, Villa, Newcastle, even Brighton rather Bournemouth, Stoke, Swansea, WBA, Burnley* etc.

* With the greatest of respect to those clubs, who I do appreciate are in the PL on merit.

they don't even sell out against us or man Utd. Their away support is very up and down. Good old traditional club though who had a very good team a few seasons back with lukaku upfront. Not much potential at west brom so yes, pretty boring.

 

[BCFC David]

See Reading fans only have to pay £30 tops for their trip to United thanks to them covering the rest of the price.

Bravo.

That's normally what happens to clubs the size of West Brom in the Premier League. It does get boring after a while. We were exactly the same, sold out home and away when it was a novelty. Swansea are the same and give it a couple of years and Bournemouth will be back to taking their usual 200 fans max to every away game.

West Bromwich are bigger than all those clubs though by some way. I can understand though how boring it must get

How much for everyone else?

Our sales are going well. Ellerslie Road is closed, school end is for you.

I'm showing my age with that comment, being mid twenties I've never really seen them as a big club. They don't get huge crowds and I've not seen them travel well away (to the DW at least), they've never won anything in my time and spent all of my childhood yo-yoing between the Premier League and the Championship. To me they are on par with Blues with both Villa and Wolves being bigger. Just my opinion though, if I was older I'd probably have a different one. Granted though they are bigger than the other clubs used in my argument.

Great move by the club, may cost them £50,000 to do this, but every fan will save about £10.

Completely forgot that United have a £30 cap in the Prem, so they decide to charge us £37-45 for a TV game on the other side of the country.

Club are really committed to these low ticket prices. Only club in the top two divisions doing 'twenty's plenty' and now this. Fantastic.

You're 100% correct

Wolves aren't much bigger than them now, if at all. We aint done nothing since the 70's and our crowds have gone right down. They have been much better the last 10 years but Wolves do have better away support, thats about it, pretty equal sized clubs nowadays.

 

[Luke Imp]

Ipswich fans - we're going to sell out the top tier of whatever stand we're in (4,200) but what does the bottom tier hold?

This was initially going to be pay on the day, but I can't imagine that'll be the case now.

 

[markwwfc1992]

We'll put our shit reserves out and get smashed 3-0. Can't be arsed.

Put Wolves before yourselves, if you're listing bigger clubs.. thanks

About 2000 I think. At this rate there'll be more away than home fans there.

It's only a tenner, surely your boys can muster 10k?
