Relegation 6-pointer here, must win.
Need to try Godden and Walker together, Gus needs dropping he’s a liability so I think Shipley could do a job partnering Kelly and Allen in midfield. Rose was diabolical last week so we need to drop him too maybe Sheaf at CB?

Why would you dump Sheaf at CB when Dion Kelly-Evans has earned his place these past few months?
You want to kill the kids confidence?

they haven't done it all season to be fair
lol

All 50k of it (That’s being generous)

So have the Club ever explain why No pay on the gate.

It's not the most attractive tie of the round is it.

So let's make people queue at the ticket office and then queue at the turn styles.

It just discourages last minute walk up.

last season at Hillsborough the crowd was 14200 which included a decent City following , suspect we will top that .

We will. It will be a similar crowd to many similar clubs.

Sheffield Wednesday got 10k at home to Cardiff in the third round last year. Birmingham and Swansea both had 7000.

There's always POTG turnstyles on matchdays unless the away end is sold out.
John Taylor has said they aren't doing POTG as a business decision.

Caused a big issue early games when the turnstiles couldn't cope with printed tickets.

"Business decision"

No wonder business are going bust throughout the country.

I bet he doesn't have to queue up twice for his ticket, to get into the ground.

Less than 10k home fans
Still time for people to make plans given tickets are less than a nados with 2 sides!!

Saldy I fear a poor attendance from City fans (if that ends up being the case) validates Dougs thinking of charging more for cup games so he can coin it in from loyal fans who will turn up and support their club wherever they logistically can.

They are going to be very physical. Team should be chosen accordingly. This game will show how far the respective clubs have changed in just under a year. Currently they are on the up, we look to have stalled. Lets hope they play a weakened team.

Don't think Lampards got much choice than to pick the team with 1 eye on the Bristol game given the ever growing injury list.

Chosen accordingly.

We have no answer to physical and rough.

Hardly a surprise. Shit draw with the team playing shit at a shit time of year.

Tickets last season against oxford were poor at this stage,but on the day the attendance was just over 18,000
with 3,000 Oxford and the atmosphere was pretty good as I remember.Winning 6-2 probably helped
