There needs to be a 4 goal swing potentially, so we need Leeds to win handsomely

Does anyone know if we'll get allocated more tickets for this one? Missed out like a dork and now obviously want to be there!

I know. So the lose to Leeds then draw V PNE and we can finish above them 

[Mattyblue]

Have we actually sold out? The online allocation has gone over the weekend but perhaps the ticket office staff will add more in the morning?

I looked at the info to see when they was going on open sale as i'm only a short train ride away from sheffield so was going regardless

 

It said initial allocation was 2000 and when i bought ours on tuesday only blocks 2+3 was available out of 4 so i'd say there's more to be added

There were certainly lots available when I bought mine on I think Thursday.

They got snapped up right after the game

[Mattyblue]

If that is the case, surely the club should’ve put that on the website Saturday evening alongside the match report/interviews etc, instead of having folk still hoping to get one Monday morning.

[Ossydave]

Sheff Utd posted that because we’ve sold out they’ve introduced loyalty point requirements for home tickets too, not sure why they’d confirm it before our club. Actually yeah wtf am I on about, it shouldn’t be a surprise at all that they confirmed it before us. 

[Andy]

Rovers have to show it on a big screen, or in the Blues Bar, surely...?

[MarkBRFC]

For this game buying online, you could actually choose your seat from the ticket map.

 

When I got ours last week the two end blocks were unavailable so I wonder if they are still to be allocated, as our initial allocation was 2k when the end holds 3k.

[Mattyblue]

Sounds about right to me, I’d assume the extra 1k would go on sale Monday/Tuesday.

Is this a sky game? Surely it is

Presumably blues bar will show it. That's where I watched weimanns wonder strike against the unwashed.

All EFL final day games are on Sky Sports 

[Proudtobeblue&white]

I really have mixed emotions about this game.

Naturally I always want us to win. Even now my expectations are zero. I can't dare to believe. Too much has gone before. You all know I've hated every minute of the Loons tenure.

I was very dubious about the new manager, and six defeats didn't make me feel great. It's all a bit too little too late. Now we are with in touching distance, it appears hollow. We still have the worst owners in our history. They don't deserve it, but we as fans do.

I just can't see the planet's aligning, and may bury my head in a sand pit till it's over.

They don't deserve our beautiful club. They have dishonoured Jack's legacy/memory. I will never forgive.

The player's deserve better, Dolan should be signed up, plans for onwards and upwards.

Fuck off Wankers, Pasha is scum, Maggot not far behind. 

Love my club, can't wait to return with a meaningful structure.

All the games are being shown on Sky Sports Plus. Not convinced it'll be on one of the main Sky Sports channels as well tho with Boro v Cov, Dingles v Millwall and the relegation scrap going on too

I would have thought, the Dingles and Leeds would be the main matches, as one of those two will be champions.

 

[Mattyblue]

No Sky will always focus on the relegation battle over who wins the title (would have been different if automatic promotion itself was still up for grabs).

[Blue Greyhound]

We deserve coventrys place, they handballed it into our net stealing our 6th place 2 years ago, this is karma's payback now.

Good, less spotlight the better, let's just sneak into 6th place 

[Ossydave]

One positive omen for Saturday is I'm not going. Weeks ago accepted hospitality with work for the Bolton game thinking ours would be a dead rubber, although their game definitely is now, free booze helps though!

I've been to Bramall Lane many times and don't think I've ever seen us win! Just in recent years there's the FA cup quarters, a 3 nil tubbing early season and the midweek game when Khadra missed the penalty, beyond that I can remember a few other cup games that didn't end well. So maybe it's a me problem 😕

If we somehow do make the play offs we'd end up playing them too so I'm gonna have to exclude myself IF all goes to plan.

 

[Mattyblue]

Even in our glory days we had that stinker of a Wilcox penalty in another FA Cup quarter final over there.

To make matters worse, a mate of mine converted his penalty for the Blafes, who then played their rivals at Wembley in  the semis.

I was in the club shop on Saturday and they had the Luton-Coventry game on the screens. The roof nearly came off when Luton scored.
