JPT Game On Sky (9 Viewers)

[Black6Osprey]

I think pretty much all the JPT finals have had between 50 - 73k crowds so if you wish to be there it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

I think people are over stating the desire of going to thi sfinal should we get there. I'd be surprised if we sold more than 30k. I know several who go to league games but have no intention of going to the JPT.

I agree. You won't be able to see the woodwork with the amount of people crawling out of it.

Exactly!!!

 

[Tobias Fünke]

Sorry, I had to laugh at that!!

Is it only on Thursday to accommodate being on telly? In which case, I don't understand why it can't be on Tuesday or Wednesday? There won't be any champions league.

Capita One Cup semis on the Tuesday and Wednesday. Anyone but the vile please in that one.

Hardly going to be a struggle to get a ticket for Wembley, it's a 90k ground and this trophy would be lucky to pull in a crowd of over 40k

I do believe that we will be restricted to 40k due to segregation issues. Think someone posted that Luton had same issue.
That said, i think if you really want to go it will be possible to get hold of a ticket.

Sounds like a tout from the 50s, Johnny "Ticket" Stubbs.

you reckon ticket stubbs will be a biggie when it comes to possible wembley tickets?>

Oh, Goddamn the Villa!

So were playing Thursday and the following Saturday? That's two games in there days!

No the Carlisle game is to be re-scheduled, no date as yet.

Need to do the £5 offer again, get the ground full, that can only help the players. I am sure we had an impact on the Sheff Utd pen takers

I hope spoil sports don't ruin this game by staying at home. Biggest game in years Imo.

 

[skybluelee]

Anybody who doesn't think we would sell our wembley allocation if we got there have got their heads up their arses.

We are getting a back log of fixtures and already will play more games than any other season for 32 years. If we have a dire winter a lot of away games will be canned as well. Any league game has to be more important.

No it isn't.

Our JPT Match against either Bury or Preston will be shown live on Thursday 10 January.

It isn't shown as a live match on Sky Sports website as of yet.
Where did you get this info SC?

 

[deanocity3]

Well, if people would rather sit at home and watch it on the tele, then let 'em. I bet they wouldn't watch the final on tele.....

Let them sit at home,but they will need to bring the old teabag and half a biscuit to qualify for a ticket.

 

[oakey]

I shall sit at home and get my final ticket if we get there. Perk of season ticket.
Why would I travel 90 miles round trip for a midweek game in January .. No chance.

 

[Changeyourface]

I wouldn't even bother with the final. It's an embarrassment that our clubs even in this competition, you'd think people would have a bit more dignity but instead I'm being told it's the "biggest game in years".

The ground was barely a third full was it not?

 

[ampthill_sba]

Thursday night football isn't right is it?

 

[Baginton]

Thursday night football isn't right is it?

That was par for the course when Setanta were scheduling the Blue Square games a few seasons ago, total nightmare!

til they went bust

Jesus, it's a f*cking game of football!! Not like people are going round crapping on the side of the street!

 

[sky blue john]

Anyone would think we had already got to the final !!!
