Dunno. I'm sure I've seen away fans with kids in there, depends how old they are I suppose.

I won't be going to the Merlin tomorrow, not with a 1.00pm kick off.

I'll probably end up just going to the CGH for a quick pint at 12 or something. Might have to walk to the ground anyway because public transport is so shit on NYD.

I might bring my parents along tomorrow if they're about but that will result in no Merlin.  If they don't come then I can give Si n Rich a lift for 11.30.

Sources report that it is open, but the queue's half way across the car park.

Big game? Big Crowd?


Title: Swansea game
Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, December 31, 2007, 12:34:08
According to a woman at work who passed the CG this morning, the queue was accross the car park then.

10,000+ maybe?

Swanseas allocation is 2600, if they sale that 10,000 is a strong possiblity

Probably would have been the job of the club secretary to let the press know of the change....

I see on SSN that they have now changed it to a 1pm kick off when the fixtures scroll along the bottom of the screen.

Apparently the queue was half way across the car park. Can anyone confirm?

Swansea fans reckon they'll bring 1500ish.. They'd sold 1000 after the Leeds game.


Title: Swansea game
Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, December 31, 2007, 14:26:37
I think it's just a rush because people have been busy so haven't got their tickets yet and they have realised it's a 1pm kick off.

We'll get 8200 I reckon, Swansea will bring 1800

I went down there at 1pm and the queue was at least half way across the car park. Very busy. That said they cant process people very fast in there.

County Ground Hotel is open at 11am tommorow morning.

Cant see why they didnt give Swansea all the tickets to sell. Only going to result in problems like at Bournemouth the other day.
