I believe we had a very big support there in the cup in 1980. Blackburn were only a Division 3 side then, while the week before our young team had beaten the mighty Liverpool, so optimism was high amongst our support. Typically we lost 1-0..

I was there for that game, not far for me as I was at college in Liverpool at the time. Met up with a few sky blues at Lime St station.

The 4-1 "Adebola" cup game at Ewood, we took around 3-3500. One of the most memorable away games during our "bleak" period.

We also played then either a couple of years before or a couple of years after, in the cup, 2-2, they equalised last minute. I think we won the replay at the Ricoh though.

That was the Chelsea quarter final year under Coleman
The adebola game was one of the last ones under dowie

I think we'll take about 3.5-3k but a lot depends on where we are at after the next 2.

It won't be an MK Dons away level of support because it's expensive on the trains.

Might be worth trying on a desktop rather than phone?

Had some issues. Having said that, MD was in the office so had to do it off my phone in the toilets which isn't the best method.

I remember watching us win there in the late 90s.....97/98 maybe and we didn't take very many then.....

I seem to remember being impressed with Philip Clement that game.......imagine that...:ROFLMAO:

Said I might not go.

…had tickets by 10:07. Went to the 2-2 game, not the 4-1. Shame.

Sales must be pretty good as block S03 sold out.
I might be wrong but i believe the initial allocation of 2,794 is blocks S03 & S04 so over half sold already.

Decent going that. Could be 2000 today and perhaps the initial allocation sold early tomorrow if that's the case?
