Pretty good numbers from everyone tonight so far, villa sold out too and forests looked good on tv.

 

[villa loyal]

3935 villa.

 

[blademan89]

Quality from villa, team seems shit again though for them

Same old. Bruce will be gone by the weekend but sod knows who will come in. Never mind.

I never knew who David Wagner was and in a season and a half he got us to the premier league

Pretty good at this level Bruce though, as is Neil Warnock can't see him being up to villa fans expectation though. No need to be sacking Bruce after 3 games though at all

I like warnock but I think you would have to be crazy to take the villa job on. Pressure and expectation levels are high and it's not an easy place to manage. It's a tough one with Bruce but it's not been 3 games. Last season was pretty poor and pre season was poor too. He seems lost and he does not seem to know what to do.

2903 Forest at Oakwell.

 

[blademan89]

Top effort from forest too

 

[Kilburn Ram]

938 PNE at Derby tonight.

Fair play - decent following that.

 

[GTFCfish]

1650 bristol city

*scenes* in the away end.

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Derby have sold just under 1,100 so far for their trip to our place on Sat.

Still early yet should be 2k plus by saturday

Poor, but not totally surprising at £32 a pop, a poor start to season, three away games next week and no bloody trains to Horwich again.

I'll be there, train via Wigan. Will probably reach 1,400 or so after last night's victory. Won't be anywhere near 2,000.

 

[blademan89]

Barnsley are yet to sell out their 2250 allocation on Saturday, apparently they've sold 1800 so far, they always bring roughly between 2.4- 3.4k so if they don't fill it that goes to show exactly what charging £32 does, complete rip off.

I'd say it's more the fact that Barnsley have a shit squad this season and are expected to go down...

We don't and we won't.

 

[JoshBCFC]

We don't and we won't.

We'll see, but more to the point, do most of your fans believe that you will go down?

 

[blademan89]

We don't and we won't.

You going Saturday?

 

[Craig]

There's a lot of negatively at the moment yeah. But then we have a lot of stupid fans. Quite willing to have a £10 to charity wager with you regarding this Josh.

 

[Craig]

You going Saturday?

Can't make it mate. Won't make many away days at all same as last season due to work. Would have been quite willing to part with £32 though seeing as it's only a stones throw away.

We're gonna get charged £36 at yours now because of it. Still there will be 26k plus on saturday so it will never change, just gonna have to accept it I'm afraid. Must admit im surprised youve not sold out by now, maybe after last night you might do.

Possibly. Last time I went was 2014/15 and we sold out pretty sharpish and weren't doing great in the league if I recall correctly. That said it was our first season back in league 1 and we'd not played for a few seasons.

I'll politely decline that offer mate

 

[Another Walkley Owl]

About 3k Sunderland fans, noisy whilst winning silent after equaliser.

 

[villa loyal]

2714 Sunderland.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Decent effort from Sunderland I thought considering the prices and a Wednesday night, as said above quite loud until about the 70th minute then not a peep while we were peppering their goal.

Let's be reyt name me a set of fans in the country at 1-1 away from home getting hammered trying to hold on for a draw that would be singing, just natural that everyone's gonna be a bit quiet at that stage.

Wasn't a dig at them they were good last night, and I couldn't name one in answer to your question!

 

[Brad-Owl]

Burton a week on Saturday sold as expected, (new ground for me, only a handful to go)
Just over 3,000 sold for Fulham on Saturday up to kick off time last night, last nights performance might have encouraged a few more.
