 No doubt Sky will pitch this as the plucky minnows against the big hitters... fair enough as long as they point out we're the minnows.

That away end is bloody tiny, probably a good thing if there is a little less demand for tickets

Have a day off Reg. That's too predictable, you need some new material

I was planning to go but Saturday Friday isn't possible.

Booooo.

I'll bemoan our loss from elsewhere.

Good job it's on Friday then ;-)

Same position for me, was planning to go but probably can't now. Sky Sports it is!

Was told that we would only be allocated 500 or so tickets for this one.  Even if it is on TV still presumably going to be all sorts of restrictions in his place as to who is able to get hold of one season tickets points wise etc

The important thing is that you understood my point.

Doubt that very much. Usual away capacity is about 1300. With the fact they will struggle to get more than 1500 home fans turn up I can't see them restricting away numbers. We'll almost certainly outnumber them in their own ground just as the likes of Oxford and Rovers did.

Glad this is on TV, what with living so far away. Wasn't expecting any televised games this year.

Really? This one was a fucking nailed on certainty, infact Man U, city, Chelski, the Arse, scouseland were all lobbying Sky cause they were worried 'lowly' FGR the giants of Wiltshire, Swindon Town FC were going to rob them of the limelight for 90 mins this season.

International call-ups will do for this game then.

No, it will be like the Charlton game last season. FGR, like Charlton will have to take it on the chin, and play without their internationals... happily for us I don't think Flitcroft does players from Blatter's dodgy vote pool.  I suppose Linganzi might have a connection to some Conradian, Francophone, hell hole, but imagine that's about it.
