Tried it for a few years with Forest. It took us to League One

Just saw Harry Redknapps answer to the question of why he played such a strong team
It's a full house people paid good money to see us play and he wasn't going to put out a team that might play sloppy football out there

Wheres the fookin fans

If home PL fans wont go and watch their team, for the FA cup the away allowance should be increased.

I think 26,000 were at Sunderland today, 6 or 7 of those being Barrow fans.

I don't think many can afford to be shelling out for those type of games when you don't get to see the 1st team.

It is a shame the way the Cup's are being treated by the majority of the Big clubs.

Good result for Derby away to Millwall. Was never going to be easy there; Millwall only one home defeat this season. With Savage and McEveley back for the replay; they should be ok.

Most PL clubs do give increased allocations for the earlier rounds anyway, but there's problems with responding to slow ticket sales in the run up to a cup fixture:

1. Crowd segregation, meaning you have to move home fans from their usual (often ST) seats to accomodate, which means you have to have advance notice to issue tickets to the affected fans.

2. Many clubs operate home cup guarantee schemes (United's is mandatory IIRC, Spurs have a voluntary one) so sold seats don't always equal full seats .

3. Is the demand always there? Many clubs won't take a bigger allocation in case they end up stuck with unsold tickets.

I'd say the weather played a bigger part yesterday than anything.

6:15 or so since West Ham - Arsenal doesn't KO until 4:15.

You should have put a few more of those smiley faces I doubt Leeds would beat Untied even with a two goal head start. The gap is just too much.

:rolleyes: that says it all really.
